2.2. Quick Installation and Usage

There are only three things that you need to do to see the video from the IP Camera.

1. Connect the IP Camera to the home/office network.
2. Install the LiveView Software on the notebook/PC.
3. Key in the ID/password of the IP Camera on the LiveView, and then you can see the video.

2.2.1. First, Connect the IP CAM to the home/office network

Please connect the IP Camera accessories to the IP Camera body correctly, including the power
adapter and Ethernet cable (as shown in Figure 2-2). And connect the other end of the Ethernet cable
to the home network or office network. Usually, this Ethernet cable is plugged into a home
NAT/router device or an Ethernet switch if in the office (as shown in Figure 2-3). Since the default
settings of the IP Camera use DHCP function and very often there is a DHCP server on most of the
Home/office network, the IP Camera should be connected to the Internet immediately. The Internet
status LED is constant red light to indicate this good connection status. If the LED is blinking, please
refer to section 3.3~3.5 to try other network settings.

2.2.2. Second, Install the LiveView Software on the notebook/PC

Please insert the installation CD into the CD-ROM drive in your notebook
or personal computer (must be running Microsoft Windows OS). Execute
the program LiveViewInstaller-xxx.exe on the disk. The program will pop-
up some windows about the installation options, please press the “next”
button to proceed with the installation. After the installation is complete,
there will be a LiveView icon on the desktop of your computer screen,
please execute this icon. The LiveView program will run immediately.
