Power Over Ethernet (PoE) Set up the IP camera through Power over Ethernet (PoE). PoE is a technology that integrates power into a standard LAN infrastructure. It enables power to be provided to the network device, such as an IP camera, using the same cable as that used for network connection. It eliminates the need for power outlets at the camera locations. [Note] 802.3at, 30W PoE Switch is recommended. We recommend users to purchase PoE switch from us to ensure the stability when using the IP Cameras.
IP Assignment There are two ways to find IP Camera: − Finding IP Camera by using “NXU Lite recording software” − Finding IP Camera by using “IP installer” Finding IP Camera by using “NXU Lite recording software” 1. The NXU Lite software is in the attached software CD. Before launching it, please install the software first. During the installing process, users will be required to input a User name and Password for login NXU Lite system. Users can define the User name and Password as wishes.
3. Click “Setup” button. 4. Click “Add IPCam” button. 5. Select “IP Camera” item.
6. Key in IP Camera’s ID and Password (default is admin/admin) and click “Auto Search” to find camera. 7. In Search Result window, click it the IP camera model that user has purchased (Please ignore ONVIF connection item); the camera is in red text that is configurable. User can double-click on the camera is in red text and configure the IP camera’s setting; even the IP camera is not in the same IP segment. Press “OK” to back to previous screen and press”Connect” to start live view.
Finding IP Camera by using “IP installer” 1. Use the software, “IP Installer” to assign the IP address of the IP camera. The software is in the attached software CD. 2. IP installer supports two languages IPInstallerCht.exe: Traditional Chinese version IPInstallerEng.exe: English version 3. There are 3 kinds of IP configuration. Fixed IP (Public IP or Virtual IP) DHCP (Dynamic IP) DHCP server/router network automatically assigns IP addresses to devices.
IP Installer configuration: 6. IP Installer will search all IP cameras connected on the LAN. The user can click “Search Device” to search again. 7. Click one of the IP cameras listed on the left side. The network configuration for this IP camera will show on the right side. You may change the name of the IP camera to your preference (eg: Office, warehouse) in “Name” on the right side. [Note] The server name length has to be less than 15 digits.
Using DHCP Server/Router Network To use DHCP, please check DHCP and click “Submit” then click “OK”. It will apply the change and reboot the Device. Please left-click the mouse twice on a selected IP camera in “Device lists” in IP Installer. Upon doing so, the Internet Explorer browser should open.
Using NON-DHCP Server/Router Network In Non-DHCP server/router network, the static IP address must be assigned to the device each time when adding another IP camera to the network; the default IP address of the current one must be changed to avoid conflict. Please make sure the Subnet of the PC’s IP address and the IP camera’s IP address are the same. [Example] The same Subnet: IP camera IP address: 192.168.1.200 PC IP address: 192.168.1.100 Different Subnets: IP camera IP address: 192.168.2.

System > Advance > SNMP SNMP (Simple Network Management Protocol) provides a simple framework for administering networked hardware. To manage the IP camera, you have to prepare a MIB browser or similar tools first. SNMPv1, SNMPv2c, and SNMPv3 can be enabled simultaneously. SNMPv1 and SNMPv2: The term “Community name” in SNMPv1 and SNMPv2c can be roughly regarded as key. The person who has the community name has the authority to read or edit the information of IP camera via SNMP.
SNMPv3: For data security reason, the authentication and encryption assurances are added when developing SNMPv3. The user has to give not only the security name (the same as "community name" in v1&v2c, or sometimes we call it "context name") but the password in order to access the IP camera. Please set security name, authentication type, authentication password, encryption type, encryption password of write and read respectively. The password must be 8~64 bits in length.
