Overview : SIP Cam function Tips : SIP Cam = Session Initiated Protocol Camera PIR = Passive Infra Red GPIO = General Purpose Input/Output The main application of SIP Camera (it will be called as the device hereafter) is used in the surveillance scope. It has built-in camera and a SIP phone. It can be used to monitoring (guard safe in house), and the SIP phone can be used as emergency call as a bidirectional telephone conversation. There are 3 detection methods, they are : motion detect , PIR and GPIO (external sensor).
(you can use GPIO to connect to the other safety guard, such as door alarm system). 3 The device can be connected to network with wired or wireless connection. With wireless connection, it supports IEEE 802.11 b/g. The wireless model makes the network usage more convenient without the hassle of cable installation. If something unusual happens, for example, motion detection or IR detect a man and cause event trigger, you can set notice to the guardian by Alarm Sound, telephone (SIP phone), email, FTP, etc. SIP Cam User Manual Chap 4.

*Tips : DHCP : Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol. Menu : Network / Network If local network has a DHCP server, DHCP server can dynamically give the device one floating(Non-fixed) IP address, you can ask MIS administrator to acquire the detail. When using DHCP mode, please set DHCP Status to "ON"; When using Fixed IP mode, set DHCP Status to "OFF" and fill the fields in the fixed IP mode, including IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway, Primary DNS, and Secondary DNS. Press Apply" button to submit and complete the process. 5-3 Wireless Installation
*Tips : WPS = Wi-Fi Protected Setup. First thing you have to do is to find out the configuration of your wireless AP. There are two methods of connecting the device to the AP. One is WPS method, the other is traditional method (without WPS). The WPS method has two profiles: One is push button method, the other is PIN code method. If your AP supports WPS push button method, it's quickest method to setup. The traditional process (without WPS) is most complicated process. See the following setup process for these 3 methods:
8 Traditional process (without WPS) 1. Power on AP 2. Access AP 3. Set network name (SSID) 4. Activate security 5. Set passphrase (see note1) Wi-Fi Protected Setup: PIN code method 1. Power on AP/registrar 2. Power on SIP Cam. Network name generated automatically and broadcast to SIP Cam 3. Access registrar 4. Enter PIN SIP Cam User Manual Wi-Fi Protected Setup: push button method 1. Power on AP 2. Power on SIP Cam. Network name generated automatically and broadcast to SIP Cam 3. Push button on AP 4. Within 2 minutes, push button on SIP Cam. (On back of SIP Cam, the pinhole labeled WPS) 6. Power on SIP Cam 7. Select network name (SSID) 8. Enter passphrase If your AP doesn't support WPS, a traditional process is used. Assign one security protocol. For example, after power on AP and access AP, assign WPA-PSK(TKIP) in Encryption method of wireless AP. Assign a 8~63 ASCII characters as preshared key. Save and reboot it. Then on the web site of the device, go to Network / Wireless; choose Enable to On;
fetch the value in ESSID field in wireless AP, and copy to ESSID field of the device. Unplug the wired ethernet cable line, use search tool (for example, V750WConfig.exe) to search the device, if you cannot find the device, go back to check the wireless settings again.
(note1) passphrase : A passphrase is a sequence of words used to control access to a computer system, program or data. A passphrase is similar to a password in usage, but is generally longer for added security. Passphrases are often used to control both access to, and operation of, cryptographic programs and systems. Passphrases are particularly applicable to systems that use the passphrase as an encryption key. Menu : Network / Wireless Chap 6. Surveillance Setting 6-1 Time Setting (Time Zone)
*Tips : NTP : Network Time Protocol. OSD : On Screen Display. 9 SIP Cam User Manual Menu : Maintenance / System / Time You can get SIP Cam Time Zone from NTP Server or Local Computer time. When you choose NTP Server, type in NTP Server name or use default NTP Server name :
ntp.nasa.gov ; you can just get SIP Cam Time Zone from local computer time by click Local Computer time button. Time will be saved in the device, and will be showed upon OSD if OSD require time to be showed. We use "ntp.nasa.gov" as default NTP server. You can get more information from http://www.ntp.org/
