Introduction This guide describes how to use the camera in (chiefly Ethernet) network environments, including connecting to and operating the camera in a network. Be sure to read this guide and the camera manual thoroughly and to keep them where they will be read by all those who use the product. Information on using optional WT-6 and WT-5 wireless transmitters can be found in the manuals for the devices in question.
Network Options The camera can be connected to Ethernet or wireless networks using the built-in Ethernet port or an optional WT-6 or WT-5 wireless transmitter (note that an Ethernet cable — available separately from commercial sources — is required for an Ethernet connection).
A Routers Connection to computers on other networks via a router is not supported. A Firewall Settings TCP ports 21 and 32768 through 61000 are used for ftp, TCP ports 22 and 32768 through 61000 for sftp, and TCP port 15740 and UDP port 5353 for connections to computers. File transfer may be blocked if the server firewall is not configured to allow access to these ports.
