• Remote Location:
a. Wherever you need to see your cameras from is possible through a standard web browser,
you will be able to switch the cameras and view them from this remote location. We
recommend that you use Firefox Browser for the most convenience, but you can also use
Internet Explorer/Edge if you install the Google Chrome Frame plug-in, your browser
b. In order to access the video feed from your offsite location you will need to use your
internet address as described above plus the port number as shown in this example.
http://99.99.99.99:8088, the 99.99…. part represents your internet address and the :8088
represents the port number as configured on your simple sight software configuration.
Example Setup
In this example we’re going to assume a few things: if you got a router from a retail store and didn’t establish
a different IP address, your default IP address for the router will be something like 192.168.0.1, and each
computer on your home network will be using a similar number with the last number in the sequence being a
different number, such as 192.168.0.123.
Giving this example let us assume:
• Router address is 192.168.0.1
• PC where SS is plugged in is 192.168.0.123
• Port number typed in SS program (settings, web access tab, port number) is 8088
• On the web access tab of the SS program, you have the “Enable Web Access” checked
• You have not selected to “Require Authorization” (if you only use this within your own network it is
not necessary to require authorization; however, if you pipe this outside your network, this should
be enabled and enter a username and secure password.)
Using this example setup: if you were to go to another computer on your network, you would open an
internet browser and in the address bar (not the search bar), which is toward the top of the page and will have
something like http://google.com in it. Type the following numeric code into the address bar:
192.168.0.123:8088
The first part is the address of the computer with the SS software and the 8088 is the port number, the “:”
(colon) separated the two numbers and must be typed in properly as shown.
This address is unique to each computer just like your house has a unique address.
Once you hit “Enter” or “Go”, you should connect to the computer using the SS hardware and be directed to
the port serving the video feed, a similar looking window will pop up to interface with the SS. Different
browsers will require different methods of viewing the camera feed:
Internet Explorer/Edge: The least friendly of the browsers will prompt you to install the “Google Chrome
Frame”, which is very small and loads very fast. This will only be required the first time you access the cameras
if it is not already installed.
Firefox: Very friendly and will instantly display your video
Google Chrome: Very friendly and will instantly display your video.
There are many other browsers that may or may not work, but the video feed has been tested on these
because they are the most used. The recommended method for best results is to download the Firefox
browser.
Using the tool:
Within the SS program there is a tool to help you access your video feed; if you have not set up your router to
allow access to the SS video feed from an “offsite location”, you will get a warning message. This warning
indicates that the program cannot access the external address for your video stream; this is normal and will
not work until you set your router to “Forward”, which will forward the video feed outside of your network.
However, if you click OK on this warning box it will almost immediately open your default browser, which will
likely show your video feed. More importantly, in the address bar you will have the exact address which you
will use to access the video feed from other computers. If you don’t get the video feed, it is likely that your
computer does not have “File Sharing” enabled. For your specific operating system you may want to do an
internet search for “Enable file and print sharing”; this will provide some very comprehensive instructions.
Here are some basic instructions which will be helpful to most running Windows 7 or Vista.
