Access the Camera
Now that the camera and the PC both have their unique IP addresses and are under the same
network segment, you can use a web browser on the PC to access the camera.
You can use Microsoft Internet Explorer 11.0 (recommended), Chrome, Firefox, Safari to
access the camera.
ActiveX control for video stream management may be downloaded from the camera directly – the
user just has to accept the use of such control when prompted so. No other third party utilities are
required to be installed in such case.
The following examples in this manual are based on Internet Explorer browser in order to
cover all functions of the camera.
Assuming that the camera’s IP address is 192.168.0.100, you can access it by opening the Web
browser and typing the following address into Web browser’s address bar:
http://192.168.0.100
Upon successful connection to the camera, the user interface would appear together with the
login page. The HTTP port number was not added behind the IP address since the default HTTP
port of the camera is 80, which can be omitted from the address for convenience.
Before logging in, you need to know the factory default Account and Password of the camera.
Account: Admin
Password: 123456
