Connecting to a Camera via the Internet

You can NOT connect to a camera via the Internet unless the camera

Administrator has configured both the camera and the Internet Gateway/Router

used by the camera.

See Making Video available from the Internet in Chapter 4 - Advanced Viewing Setup for

details of the required configuration.

Also, you need a broadband Internet connection to view video effectively. Dial-up connections

are NOT supported.

1. Obtain the following information from the Administrator of the camera you wish to

connect to:

 Internet IP Address or Domain Name of the camera.

 Port number for HTTP connections.

 Login (username, password) if required.

2. Start Internet Explorer.

3. In the Address box, enter the following:

HTTP://Internet_Address:port_number

Where Internet_Address is the Internet IP address or Domain Name of the camera,

and port_number is the port number used for HTTP (Web) connections to the camera.

Examples using an IP address:

HTTP://203.70.212.52:1024

Where the Internet IP address is 203.70.212.52 and the HTTP port number is 1024.
