Step 3 of 5: Creating a Skype account
A Skype account allows you to connect to your camera through the Skype service. Skype is
a service that allows users to make voice calls and video calls to anywhere in the world.
In order to connect to your video monitor using Skype, you will need two accounts---one
for the
camera
(i.e. Lorex Camera) and one for yourself (i.e. Tom Smith).
NOTE: The Skype illustrations and instructions bel
ow serve as a guideline only. Skype may
change their website / product interface without prior notice.
If you do not have a Skype account
See “If you do not have a Skype account” on page 47.
If you have an existing Skype account
You will have to create a separate account for your camera. Follow the instructions below.
1 Launch Skype. If y
ou are connected to Skype, click Skype>Sign Out.
2 From the Skype Login window, click Don’t have a
Skype name?
Click "Don’t have a Skype name?"
3 Follow the on-screen instructions to create a new camera account (i.e. Lorex Camera) or an
account for yourself (i.e. Tom Smith).
