Step 2. Check LAN for camera IP address compatibility
Right click on the entry for your camera and select IP Address. In the IP Setup
window, enter the new network settings for the camera. Click SETUP. In this
example, the IP address is changing to 192.168.1.201.
SC Black IP cameras and encoders are factory configured with a static IP address,
subnet mask, and gateway setting:
IP address:
192.168.0.100
Subnet mask:
255.255.255.0
Gateway:
192.168.0.1
Before connecting your camera to a LAN, verify that the IP address is not already
in use. At a Microsoft Windows computer attached to the LAN subnet where your
camera will be connected, open a Command Prompt window and enter:
ping 192.168.0.100
Answer Yes to the confirmation window. When the Login window opens, enter the ID
and PW. The default settings are root and pass. Click Login.
In the IPAdmin Tool main window, click Refresh and verify that the camera settings
changed.
Step 5. Initial camera setup
The “Request timed out” response indicates that the IP address is not in use and the
camera can be attached to the network without causing errors.
To view video images from the camera, at a computer attached to the LAN where the
camera is installed, open Microsoft© Internet Explorer and go to:
http://<IP address of the camera>
If the IP address is 192.168.1.201, enter: http://192.168.1.201
