Note: For ARP/Ping to work properly on Windows machines, there must be at least one IP
address in the ARP table. Type ARP -A at the DOS prompt to ensure that one entry is
present. If there is not another IP Address in the table, ping a known device on the
network to build an entry (See step 3 below). Once an entry is established in the ARP
table, repeat the process to set the IP address for the camera.
3. Ping the camera s IP address. The camera must be fully booted to accept the ping. Once the
camera has received a ping packet, it will use that IP address.
The camera's new IP can now be entered in the web browser Location/ URL field and finish
configuring it via the browser-based settings pages.
2.4 Configure the Camera
The cameras feature a browser-based installation wizard that contains all of the initial settings
that should be configured for each installed camera. After assigning an IP address to the camera,
use a web browser to open the first page of the wizard. The installation wizard can also be
accessed by selecting Install Wizard from the navigational pull-down menu that appears on the
View Images page.
Note: For the browser-based pages to operate properly on Netscape browsers, both Java and
JavaScript must be enabled. Go to the Edit menu, select Preferences, and scroll to the
Advanced section. Enable Java and JavaScript by clicking the appropriate check boxes.
Use the text input fields and pull-down menus in the installation wizard page to adjust the
camera's initial configuration settings. When using the pull-down menus, settings will activate
when a selection is made. For the text input areas, settings will activate when <Tab> is pressed.
To adjust the settings using the wizard:
1. Choose the setting requiring adjustment.
2. Select the appropriate value from the pull-down menu, or enter the appropriate
value into the form field and press <Tab>.
3. Repeat this process for any other settings.
