For a megapixel camera, it is recommended to use monitors of the 24" size or larger, of the
1600x1200 or better resolutions.
NOTE:
1. The onscreen Java control can malfunction under the following situations:
A PC connects to different cameras that are using the same IP address (or the same cam-
era running different rmware versions). Removing your browser cookies will solve this
problem.
2. In the event of plug-in compatibility issues, you may try to uninstall the plug-in that was previ-
ously installed.
Tips:
3. If you forget the root (administrator) password for the camera, you can restore the camera
defaults by pressing the reset button for longer than 5 seconds.
4. If DHCP is enabled in your network, and the camera cannot be accessed, run the Shepherd
utility to search the network. If the camera has been congured with xed IP that does not
comply with your local network, you may see its default IP 169.254.x.x. If you still cannot nd
the camera, you can restore the camera to its factory defaults.
5. If you changed your network parameters after the Shepherd utility was started, such as
adding a connection to a LAN card, re-start the Shepherd utility.
