Common Operations

Factory default settings:
IP camera is a network device and must be assigned with network IP address, subnet mask and gateway.

The camera default setting is as follows:
Default IP address: DHCP. If no DHCP server is available, the camera will fall back to 192.168.201.226
Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
Gateway: Assigned by DHCP. If no DHCP server is available, the camera will fall back to 192.168.201.1 WEB port: 80

Please use Provision-ISR’s Ip manager to locate the IP address of the camera. For example:

Network parameters
Take the example of Windows 10 operating system. Make sure that the IP address of the computer is in network segment of the camera. If the IP addresses are not in the same segment, the computer and camera will not be able to communicate.
After setting IP address, you could test whether it has been connected between the computer and the camera by using the PING order from clicking the “start” → “run” button in the bottom left corner. The format of the command: ‘ping 192.168.0.99’ (Or any other IP assigned to the camera).

As the picture shown above, it indicates that it has been successfully connected between the computer and the camera.

• Hardware connection is incorrect
• Computer TCP/IP is not in the same segment as the camera
• Your network forbid pings.

Appendix

Lighting Protection and Anti-surge

This product uses the gas discharge tube of TVS diode and protection circuit, can effectively prevent the 3.0 kV following transient lightning and surge lamp all types of pulse signal to the damage of equipment. However, for outdoor installation according to the actual situation on the premise of guarantee the electrical safety to do the necessary protective measures:

• Signal transmission line must be with the high voltage equipment goods between high voltage cables to keep a distance of at least 50 meters
• Choose as far as possible outside wiring along the roof line
• For open field must adopt sealing pipe buried wiring way, and the steel pipe by one-point earthling, absolutely forbidden by wiring overhead way
• In strong thunderstorms or high induction voltage region (e.g., high voltage transformer substation), must be taken to add extra high power lightning protection equipment and installation of lightning rod and other measures
• Lightning protection and grounding design of outdoor installation and wiring must be combined with the construction of lightning protection requirements into consideration, and conform to the requirements of relevant national standards and industry standards.
• The system must be equipped on potential grounding. Grounding device must meet the system anti-interference and electrical safety requirements, and shall not be short term or mixed with strong power grid zero line. System separate grounding, grounding resistance is not greater than 4Ω.
