Initial Access to the Network Camera
Installing Plug-in
For the initial access to the Network Camera in Windows, the web browser may prompt for
permission to install a new plug-in for the Network Camera after a period of time of downloading.
Permission request depends on the Internet security settings of the user’s PC or notebook. If the
highest security level is set, the computer may prohibit any installation and execution attempt.
This plug-in has been registered for certificate and is used to display the video in the browser.
Users may click on
to proceed. If the web browser does not allow the user to continue
to install, check the Internet security option and lower the security levels or contact your IT or
networking supervisor for help.
Add Password to Prevent Unauthorized Access
The default Administrator’s password is blank and the Network Camera initially will not ask for any
password. The Administrator should immediately implement a new password as a matter of prudent
security practice. Once the Administrator’s password is saved, the Network Camera will ask for the user’s
name and password before each access. The Administrator can set up a maximum of twenty (20) user
accounts. Each user can access the Network Camera except to perform system configuration. Some critical
functions are exclusive for the Administrator, such as system configuration, user administration, and
software upgrades. The user name for the Administrator is permanently assigned as “root”. Once the
password is changed, the browser will display an authentication window to ask for the new password.
Once
the password is set, there is no provision to recover the Administrator’s password. The only
option is to restore to the original factory default settings.
