(see page 91 or page 100). (14) Operation Time Sets time period to display camera images (see page 113). (15) External Output Sets the digital output terminal of the External I/O (see page 115). (16) Indicator Control Sets indicator display (see page 116). 2.2 Connecting the Camera to Your IPv4 Network The Network page offers three options to configure the camera in IPv4. • [Automatic Setup] automatically assigns an unused IP address to the camera, and uses UPnPTM (Universal Plug and Play) to configure your router. • [Static] allows the user to use a specific IP address. • [DHCP] is offered for ISPs who require this option. 1. Click [Network (IPv4)] on the Setup page. 2. Click a connection mode. • Each page is displayed (see page 44—page 45). 3. Enter each parameter in the proper data field. Automatic Setup The camera automatically obtains the network settings (subnet mask, default gateway and DNS server address) utilizing a DHCP feature on the router. The camera also automatically searches the unused IP address on your network. If you select [Yes] at the Allow Access from the Internet, the camera automatically enables port forwarding by using UPnPTM. In this case, the camera automatically searches the unused port number on your network in the order from 50000 to 50050. • Clicking [Cancel] takes you back to the previous page without saving changes. DHCP Setup Static Setup • Clicking [Cancel] takes you back to the previous page without saving changes. 4. Click [Save] when finished. • New settings are saved. • When finished, the following page is displayed. Note The current network settings are shown on the Status page in the Maintenance section (see page 118). 5. Click [Restart]. • The camera restarts, and the Top page is displayed. Note • When you do not know the camera IP address while setting [Automatic Setup] or [DHCP Setup], you can search it by using the Setup Program (see page 142). • Checking [Yes] for [Allow Access from the Internet] on [Automatic Setup] may not display the Top page, because the port number may change. Use the Setup Program to access the camera. • If the camera is restarted, all buffered images on the internal memory are deleted. The buffered images on the SD memory card are not deleted. Setting Description Allow Access from the Internet (Automatic Setup Only) • Allow Access from the Internet setting automatically configures the router's Port Forwarding setting (some routers call it "Address Translation", "Static IP Masquerade", "Virtual Server" or "Port Mapping"). To enable Internet access to the camera, check [Yes]. In this case, the camera automatically searches the unused port number on your network in the order from 50000 to 50050. To disable Internet access to the camera, check [No]. Network Configuration from Setup Program (Static/DHCP Only) • If you prohibit the Setup Program from changing the network settings, clear the check box. Port Number (Static/DHCP Only) • The port number is 80 by default. When you use multiple cameras with a router on your network, each camera must be assigned its own port number (see page 28 "1.10 Connecting the Camera to a Router Not Supporting UPnP™ (IPv4 Only)" in the Installation/Troubleshooting). • Do not set the following port numbers. E.g., FTP: 20 and 21, Telnet: 23, SMTP: 25, DNS: 53, POP3: 110, HTTPS: 443, ICQ: 4000 and IRC: 6661— 6667. • Enter only the number (1—65535). • Some ISPs do not allow you to use port 80. Ask your ISP or network administrator about the accessible port number over the Internet. • IP address • Subnet Mask (Static Only) • If your ISP or network administrator specifies the IP address and subnet mask, enter them in each data field. • If you use the camera on the LAN, set the IP address in the same class as your PC (see page 141). • Set 4 digits (0—255) and 3 periods such as "192.168.0.253". But "0.0.0.0" and "255.255.255.255" are not available. Host Name (DHCP Only) • If your ISP uses the DHCP function which automatically assigns the IP address to the camera, enter the ISPassigned host name. (Host name may be used as an authentication.) • Enter ASCII characters for the host name (see page 150). But [Space], ["], ['], [&], [<] and [>] are not available. Default Gateway*1 (Static/DHCP Only) • If you have the assigned Default Gateway address by your ISP or network administrator, enter it in this data field. • Set 4 digits (0—255) and 3 periods such as "192.168.0.253". But "0.0.0.0" and "255.255.255.255" are not available. DNS Server Address*1 (Static/DHCP Only) • DNS server address is required in the following conditions. • Transferring camera images by E-mail or FTP • Setting cameras by their host names on the Multi- Camera Setup page • Using the Viewnetcam.com service • If you have the assigned DNS server addresses by your ISP or network administrator, enter them in this data field. They usually have two addresses. • Set 4 digits (0—255) and 3 periods such as "192.168.0.253". But "0.0.0.0" and "255.255.255.255" are no...
