How to Use

Open your familiar web browser and connect to Network Camera just like a general web
site and the video will present on demand. Make sure the web address of the target
Network Camera is accurate.

Authentication

After opening the Web browser and typing in the URL of Network Camera, a dialogue
window will pop out to request a username and password. For administrator’s initial
usage of Network Camera, enter the username as “root” and the password as the serial
number in capital letters. The serial number can be found on the labels under the body
of Network Camera and the top side of the carton. The primary users will be allowed to
enter as soon as the administrator finishes adding user profiles. Upon successful
authentication, the main page will be displayed.

For demonstration purpose, enter the Security Web page of configuration to activate the
demo account and choose permitted services. Once the demo account is setup, any one
may watch the video by using “demo” as user name while ignoring the password.
Different from primary users, the demo account has certain limitations that are
determined by administrators.

In the figure, the foreground is the
login window and the background
shows the message when
authentication fails. The user may
check the option to save the
password for future convenience.
