EZWatch EZWatchIP 4.0 - Manual (Page 3)

Setting Up Internet Access Using EZWatch IP Service
Step #1:
First make sure the EZWatch Pro DVR/Camera Server has a connection to the internet. This can be DSL,
Cable or Dial Up. Make sure you are able to surf the web before moving to step 2.
Step #2:
Using the DVR/Camera Server, log on to our EZWatch IP web site at www.ezwatchip.com . Click on the Sign Up
tab and enter in your information following the steps. After you have entered all your information, click on the
download link and save the EZWatch IP Setup program to your computer. Be sure to remember where you
saved this program so that you can find it when you are ready to run the installation.
Step #3:
Once the software download is complete. Click on the
EZWatchIP-Setup.exe icon and click on Run to install the
EZWatchIP software.
Follow the steps indicated. After you have completed the
installation, if the program doesn’t automatically open the
sign on screen, then click on the Red EZWatchIP icon on
your desk top.
This will open the log in screen where you will enter the
user name and password you created when you signed up
for the service. After you enter your information simply
click the Begin Update button and you are finished. This
will send the first communication to our IP server and
activate your account.
If you encountered any problems up to this point please call our tech support personnel for help 1-866-241-
3400.
After you click the Begin Update button the login in screen
will disappear and our round red EZWatch IP icon will
appear in your task bar. This icon indicates the service is
operating.
The EZWatchIP program will check every 30 minutes to see if your Public IP Address has changed. If it has, it
will send the new address to our system so that the domain name you created (test.ezwatchip.com for example)
will now be changed and allow you to access your system remotely.
Step #4:
Now that you have your EZWatchIP service up and running the next step is to configure the DVR so that you
can access it remotely. Following the steps on the next page will guide you through opening your ports on your
router or modem so that you can now use the system. Just remember when you go to your remote location(s)
when it asks you to enter your IP address you will instead enter your domain name you have created with
EZWatchIP.
