"Administrator" refers to the person who can configure the Network Camera and grant
user access to the camera.
Hardware installation
Please verify that your product package contains all the
accessories listed in the foregoing Package Contents.
Depending on the user’s application, an Ethernet cable
may be needed. The Ethernet cable should meet the specs
of UTP Category 5 and not exceed 100 meters in length.
Upon powering up, the device runs through a self-test procedure and the front LEDs will
blink between blue and red a few times. If self-test passes, the LED will be blue and the
Network Camera will standby for getting IP address. After getting IP Address, the LED will
blink blue every second. If self-test fails the red LED will blink several times. Refer to
Appendix A for troubleshooting.
The Network Camera will first detect Ethernet. If it does not connect to Ethernet, the
Network Camera will try WLAN. During the searching and connecting process to the
wireless access point or station, the red LED of the Network Camera will flash every
second. Until the Network Camera connects to the other wireless device, the red LED
will become lighted. Operating in either network mode, the blue LED will flash every
second as heartbeat to indicate alive.
Connect the power adapter jack to the Networ
k
Camera before plugging in to the power socket. This will
reduce the risk of accidental electric shock.
