First Images And The Most Important Settings3.2
Once the camera has been connected to the network, you need to set up the camera's network
interface accordingly. This step involves setting up and checking the network parameters of
the camera. If your network is already using an IP address in the 10.x.x.x range with a
255.0.0.0 network mask, you do not need to change the camera's network parameters.
You can access the camera directly (see section 3.2.2). If your network or computer does
not use an IP address in the 10.x.x.x range (e.g. in the 192 or 172 ranges), you should follow
one of the following methods for changing the camera's network parameters:
Manual Setup• (Section 3.2.1)
Automatic Setup using MxControlCenter or MxEasy• (Sections 3.2.3 and 3.2.4)
Notes
For the following examples, we will use a camera with the factory address 10.8.0.99.
Replace this IP address with the IP address of your camera. You will find the IP
address of your camera on a small sticker on the camera. Make sure that the IP
addresses used in the following examples are not already being used by other
devices in the network.
Hint: Pressing the "R" key on the camera (see section 2.2.2) prompts the camera
to announce its current IP address over the speaker.
