Monoprice 9206 Pan/Tilt/Zoom IP Camera - Manual (Page 54)

Pan/Tilt IP Camera
A: It’s probably because the internet bandwidth (internet speed) is not big enough.
Please try to apply for a better internet connection from your Internet Service
Provider or decrease the bandwidth settings of the IP Cam. You can adjust the
bandwidth requirement of the IP Cam either from the CamView software or login
into the web configuration page of the IP Cam to do the modification.
9. Does the IP Cam provide the recording function?
A: You can do the recording of the video/audio of the IP Cam from the CamView
software with the CamView software version later than the version number v1.1.
Another software CamPlay is needed to play the recorded vide/audio files.
10. The video seems a little dark when the IP Cam is used inside the house, how
could I improve this?
A: You can increase the “Low light sensitivity” in the “video settings” page either
through web configuration or through CamView settings to “High” or “Very high”.
This will tremendously improve the video quality in dark environment. Another
model of our IP Cam products IC212w with IR led inside could help on some of
the very tough environment even in wholly darkness. But please be noticed that
when the IR led is turned on in the dark room, the video will be black and white
only.
11.
Can I connect the IP camera directly to my PC/notebook with an Ethernet
cable?
A: If the IP camera is directly connected to your PC/notebook computer using an
Ethernet cable, the IP camera will automatically use an IP address called “auto IP”
with IP address 169.254.xxx.xxx. If your PC/notebook computer is configured to
DHCP, it will also use an “auto IP” address. But this will take about one minute
after the IP camera is connected to the computer and you need to make sure that
the WiFi interface on your PC/notebook computer is disabled. After about one
minute, you can run the CamView software to access the IP camera, the CAM ID
should be displayed on the “auto-search” list. You can then see the video by
double clicking the CAM ID icon. But you need to know that in this situation, other
local or remote computer can not see the video.
