Installation: hardware

- Connect the camera with the joint lock connected to the bracket. Next, secure the joint lock.
Installation: cable connections
For your camera to work properly, you need to connect the camera cables as follows:
- Connect the network cable [1] to your network.
- Connect the Alarm in [2] and the GND [3] cables to a magnetic sensor, PIR sensor or relay.
- Plug the camera’s power cable [7] in the included power adapter and connect it to a power socket.
a. Prerequisites
Before proceeding, check the following:
- We recommend that you use your own ADSL or cable internet service for easy network configuration.
- Your camera is connected to your wireless router with a RJ45 network cable, and it is powered on.
- EagleEyes-Lite or EagleEyes-Plus is installed on your device.
If not, download it from your device’s app store.
Note: EagleEyes HD for iPad does not support network configuration. Please install EagleEyes-Lite or EagleEyes Plus on your iPad instead.
b. Preparing the network configuration
- Connect your camera to your wireless router using the included RJ45 network cable (see Overview above).
- Write down the IP address of your wireless router. You will need it later. To find the IP address, proceed as follows:
- Connect your mobile device to the wireless router that has the camera connected.
- Go to Settings > WiFi.
- Press the “>” button to see the details of the selected wireless network.
The IP address is visible next to “Router”. (In the sample screen, the IP address is 192.168.2.1)
c. Adding your camera to the EagleEyes app
- Establish a wireless connection between your mobile device and the wireless router that has the camera connected.
- Open the EagleEyes app and click the “+” button to add a new device.
- Select “Local Network Search” to search for the camera.
The device will show a list of devices on the network. The displayed IP address is the address that your router assigned to your camera.
- Select the camera from the list. The settings page appears.
- Change the port number of the camera as needed. The default port number is 88. If port number 88 is blocked, you can change it to any value from 1~9999 (for example 8080).
- Write down the IP address and the port number of the camera. You will need them later. (In the sample screens below [A], the IP address is 192.168.2.197 and the port number is 88.)
- Press “Apply” to confirm your settings.
- Wait until “Status” [B] indicates “Done” or “Fail”.
- If the status shows “Done”, the device page appears again. Proceed with the next step.
- If the status shows “Fail”, press the button on the top right side of your device. In the popup window, select “DDNS”. The device page appears again. Proceed with the next step.
- In “Title” [C], enter a meaningful name for your camera connection and press “Save” to confirm.
d. Port Forwarding
At this moment, you can only access the camera when connected to your own
wireless network, not through the internet. This is because a home network is
usually connected to the internet through a router. Only the router’s external
IP address (assigned to you by your Internet Service Provider) can be seen on
the internet. Moreover, the router will also block access to any device in
your home network, including your camera. To bypass this, most routers support
a mechanism called port forwarding that allows access from the internet to a
device in the home network.
You can set up port forwarding as follows:
-
Open your web browser on your mobile device, and enter the IP address of your router you wrote down in the address bar.
Your router configuration page appears. -
Go to the port forwarding (or virtual server) rule configuration page.
Note: the naming of port forwarding or virtual server may vary based on the brand of your router. Refer to the user manual of your specific router for more information.
The example below shows the screen for a D-Link router: select the “Advanced” tab and then choose “Port Forwarding”. -
Enter the camera IP address and port number that you noted down and enable this rule. You can now access your camera through the internet.
-
If your wireless router supports UPnP (Universal Plug and Play), make sure the function is enabled. UPnP enhances communication between the router and wireless devices. If necessary, refer to the manual of the router software.
e. Checking the Connection
When you have completed network setup and port forwarding, check your
connection setup as follows:
- On your mobile device, switch your network mode to 3G or connect to a different wireless network than the one that has your camera connected.
- Start EagleEyes and select the camera you just added to see if you can access it.
- If yes, your network connection works. Proceed with Changing the account user name and password below.
- If not, proceed with the next step.
- Switch your network mode back to the wireless network that has your camera connected.
- Start EagleEyes, and add a new connection with the IP address and port number that you set up in Adding your camera to the EagleEyes app.
- See if you can access the camera with this connection.
- If yes, return to Port Forwarding to set up port forwarding again.
- If not, return to step 4 of Adding your camera to the EagleEyes app and reconfigure the connection.
f. Changing the account user name and password in EagleEyes
To ensure the safety of your camera connection, modify the default user name
and password as follows:
- On your mobile device, access the camera in EagleEyes.
- Press the Configuration button
- Select Advance Setup > Account.
- 4. Modify the default user name (admin) and password (admin) to the ones you prefer.
g. Activating Push Video
Push Video is an active notification system. If it is enabled, you will
receive event notifications on your mobile device within 5 seconds.
Note: Push Video will only be triggered through the Alarm in. Refer to
Installation: cable connections above for details.
Proceed as follows to enable Push Video:
- On your mobile device, open EagleEyes.
- In the Address Book, switch the button next to your camera to “ON”. The device shows a message that Push Notification (Push Video) is enabled. Press “Close” to return to the Address Book.
