w w w .a ct i. c o m Firmware User ’ s Manual V6.04 . 15 4 Recommended PC Specificat ions In order to configure or t est the cameras , a PC with following basic s pecifications is needed: CPU Core2Duo 2.13GHz or abov e Memory 2 GB or abov e Operating Sy stem Windows XP with SP2 or abov e.
w w w .a ct i. c o m Firmware User ’ s Manual V6.04 . 15 5 Preparation Connect the Equipment T o be able to connect to the camera firm ware from your PC, both the cam era and the PC have to be connected to each other via Ethernet cable. At the sam e time, the camera has to have its own power supply .
w w w .a ct i. c o m Firmware User ’ s Manual V6.04 . 15 6 In the example below , we suc cessfully f ound D 1 1 camera that we had just connected to the network.
w w w .a ct i. c o m Firmware User ’ s Manual V6.04 . 15 7 Use the default IP addres s of a came ra : If there is no DHCP server in the give n network, the us er ma y ha ve to assign the IP addresses to both PC and cam era manuall y to make sure the y are in the sam e network segment.
w w w .a ct i. c o m Firmware User ’ s Manual V6.04 . 15 8 Manually adjust the IP addresses of mu ltiple came ras: If there are more than 1 cam era to be used in the same local area network and there is no DHCP server to assig n unique IP addresses to each of them , all of the cameras would then ha ve the initial IP address of 192.
w w w .a ct i. c o m Firmware User ’ s Manual V6.04 . 15 9 A cc ess the Camera Now that the cam era and the PC are bot h having their unique IP addresses an d are under the same network s egment, it is poss ible to use the W eb browser of the PC to acces s the camera.
w w w .a ct i. c o m Firmware User ’ s Manual V6.04 . 15 10 Assum ing that the camera ’ s IP address is 192.168.0.100 , you can access it by opening the W eb browser and t yping the following addres s into Web browser ’ s address bar: http://192.
