2 ACCESS THE IP CAMERA


This chapter explains how to access the camera through browser.
Firstly, make sure the camera connecting with the router via network cable and power on with adapter correctly. Then, install
the IPCam Search Tool software according to the printed manual Quick Installation Guide.

2.1 Access the Camera in LAN

This camera supports HTTP protocols, and you can access the camera through two ways.
(1) http:// LAN IP + HTTP Port NO.
Double click the IPCam Search Tool icon, it will show the cameras IP address automatically.

Figure 2.1
Double click the IP address of the camera; your default browser will be opened to the camera login page.

2.2 Access the Camera in WAN

2.2.1 Static IP Addresses

Users who have static IP addresses do not need to set DDNS service settings for remote access. When you finished
connecting the camera using the LAN IP address and port forwarding, you can access the camera directly from the Internet
via the WAN IP address and port number.
How to Obtain the WAN IP address from a public website
To obtain your WAN IP address, enter the following URL in your browser: http://www.whatismyip.com. It will show your
current WAN IP address at the webpage.

Figure 2.2
Access your IP Camera from the Internet
You can access the IP Camera from the Internet (remote access). Enter the WAN IP address and port number in your
standard browser. For example, you would enter http:// 14.155.122.202:81
NOTE :
Make sure port forwarding is successful. You can do port forwarding by two ways.
1.Do port (HTTP port) forwarding manually. (See Figure 2.6 for further details)
2.If the router has a Virtual Server, it can do port forwarding. Add the cameras LAN IP and port which you had set earlier to
the routers port forwarding settings.
When connect the camera to a router, it will have a dynamic IP address and you need to set DDNS service settings to view it
remotely.

2.2.2 Dynamic IP Addresses

DDNS is a service that allows your IP Camera, especially when assigned with a dynamic IP address, having a fixed host and
domain name. This means however your WAN IP address changes, which still can access your camera with a fixed
hostname via internet at anytime, using http:// hostname:port number.
HTTP Port Number
All cameras have the default HTTP port of 81.
For example, if the cameras LAN IP is 192.168.1.188:81, it means this cameras HTTP port is 81. Port number can be
changed between 1 to 55535, make sure it will not be conflicted with other existing ports like 25, 21, 10000 etc.
Set the HTTP port number
Step 1: Open the IPCam Search Tool, and select the camera you would like to change the port, the basic information will be
shown at the right side as in Figure 2.3 and 2.4.

Figure 2.3
Step 2: Modify the Http port, enter the username and password of the Administrator (default username is admin with a blank
password), and click OK to apply changes.

2.4

Step 3: Waiting about 10 seconds,will see that the cameras LAN IP address and Http port have been changed.
In this example, it has been changed to 2020, so http://192.168.1.188:2020 will be shown in IPCam Search Tool. Besides, the
LAN IP address is now fixed as a static IP address. This IP address will not be changed whether the camera is powered off or
on.
Note: It is very vital that you need to set a static LAN IP address, otherwise you may have problems later with remote access.
And youll see the camera lost power and reconnected on a different LAN IP address. So please ensure you set a static LAN
IP address!

Port Forwarding
Port forwarding allows for outside connections to access a specific device on your network from all over the world. Every
router automatically blocks any incoming connections for safety purposes. Used port forwarding, it means your router to allow
a connection through a certain port (you can think of it as a gateway) into your router. You set this port to a specific device, in
our cases an IP Camera, so it can be accessed from all over the world.
If you never done port forwarding before, you can open and view the following link to understand the basic concept:
http://portforward.com/help/portforwarding.htm
How to set the Port Forwarding?
For example: If the cameras LAN IP address is 192.168.8.100:2000, using the Linksys brand router.
Step 1: Login to the router, then turn to the Applications & Gaming menu, and click on the Single Port Forwarding
sub-menu.
PS: In other routers, it may be called port forwarding or port triggering or Virtual Server or NAT.
Step 2: Create a new column via the LAN IP address & HTTP Port of the camera within the router as shown
below, then click OK or Submit to save your settings:

Figure 2.6
Access the camera with DDNS via Internet :
After setting the port forwarding, you can use the third party DDNS to access the camera.
Step 1 Please go to the third party DDNS website(such as www.3322.org) to create a free hostname.
Step 2 Configure the DDNS Service Settings within the camera.
1. Choose the DDNS Service 3322.org.
2. Fill in the User, Password, Host youve got from www.3322.org.
3. Click Submit, the camera will restart to make the DDNS settings effectively, after that, you will see the DDNS status show it
is successful, and the link will be followed.
