Section 4 - Security Using & Configuring the DVS-310-1 D-Link’s DVS-310-1 is a versatile and cost-effective Video Encoder offering both video and audio monitoring. It can also serve as a powerful surveillance system for security applications. This section explains how to view the Video Encoder from either the Internet or from inside your internal network.
Section 4 - Security After you have completed the setup of the DVS-310-1 outlined in the Quick Installation Guide you will have an operating Video Encoder that has an assigned IP Address. When you use a router to share the Internet with one or more PCs, the IP Address assigned to the Video Encoder will be a local IP Address. This allows viewing within your Local Area Network (LAN). Later, the router can eventually be configured to allow remote viewing of video over the Internet. 1.
Section 4 - Security 2. View the Video Encoder Using Your Internet Explorer Web Browser Run your Internet Explorer Web browser. In the address bar, type in the IP Address that was assigned to the Video Encoder by the Installation Wizard program. The DVS-310-1 Home Page appears with a window displaying live video from the Video Encoder. You are able to view this screen from any PC running Internet Explorer on your LAN. Click on the Configuration button on the left side of the display.
Section 4 - Security Router Set-Up and Installation 3. Access the Router with Your Web Browser The following steps generally apply to any router that you have on your network. A D-Link Router is used as an example to clarify the configuration process. Configure the initial settings of the router by following the steps outlined in your own router’s installation guide. If you have cable or DSL Internet service, you will most likely have a dynamically assigned WAN IP Address.
Section 4 - Security Note: Because a dynamic WAN IP can change from time to time depending on your ISP, you may want to obtain a Static IP address from your ISP. A Static IP address is a fixed IP address that will not change over time and will be more convenient for you to use to access your Video Encoder from a remote location. The Static IP Address will also allow you to access your Video Encoder attached to your router over the Internet. 4.
Section 4 - Security Please make sure to check the box next to the camera name on the Port Forwarding List to enable your settings. Important: Some ISPs block access to port 80 and other commonly used Internet ports to conserve bandwidth. Check with your ISP so that you can open the appropriate ports accordingly. If your ISP does not pass traffic on port 80, you will need to change the port from 80 to something else, such as 800.
Section 5 - Troubleshooting Troubleshooting 1. Why is the Power LED not lighting up? The power supply used might be at fault. Confirm that you are using the provided power supply, which is DC 12V, for the Video Encoder. Also verify that the power supply is securely connected. If the device is functioning but the LED is not illuminated, the LED may be disabled. Open the firewall configuration page and click MAINTENANCE. At the bottom of the page, there will be an option to turn on or turn off the LED. 2.
Section 5 - Troubleshooting Example DI/DO Schematic DI Receives signals from a reed switch, vibration sensor, or any other external security device. DO Connects to an alarm or buzzer. 485+/485- D-Link DVS-310-1 User Manual Connects to an RS-485 interface for controlling auxiliary equipment such as an external camera enclosure for pan, tilt, and zoom functionality.
Appendix B - Networking Basics Networking Basics Check your IP address After you install your new D-Link adapter, by default, the TCP/IP settings should be set to obtain an IP address from a DHCP server (i.e. wireless router) automatically. To verify your IP address, please follow the steps below. Click on Start > Run. In the run box type cmd and click OK. At the prompt, type ipconfig and press Enter. This will display the IP address, subnet mask, and the default gateway of your adapter.
Appendix B - Networking Basics Statically Assign an IP address If you are not using a DHCP capable gateway/router, or you need to assign a static IP address, please follow the steps below: Step 1 Windows® Vista - Click on Start > Control Panel > Network and Internet > Network and Sharing Center > Manage Network Connections. Windows XP - Click on Start > Control Panel > Network Connections.
