Installation
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.
Connect the power adapter jack to the Network
Camera before plugging in to the power socket. This
will reduce the risk of accidental electric shock.
Upon powering up, the device runs through a self-test procedure and the front LEDs
will blink between green and red for a few times. If self-test passes, the LEDs will shut
off and the Network Camera will be on stand-by and ready for software installation. 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 is connected to the other wireless device, the red
LED will become lighted. Operating in either network mode, the green LED will flash
every second as heartbeat to indicate alive.
To install in Ethernet
Make sure the Ethernet is firmly connected to a switch hub. After attaching the
Ethernet cable plug in the power adapter. If the LED turns out to be steady green after
self-test, go to next paragraph “Software Installation”. If the Ethernet is not available,
the Network Camera will switch to wireless LAN mode.
