Introduction

The Internet Camera connects directly to an Ethernet, Fast Ethernet, or 802.11b (DCS- 1000W only) Network. It is different from the conventional PC Camera because the Internet Camera is a stand-alone system with a built-in CPU and web server providing a low cost solution that can transmit high quality video images for monitoring. The Internet Camera can be accessed remotely, and controlled from any PC/Notebook over the Intranet or Internet via a web browser. The simple installation procedures and web-based inter- face offers easy integration to your network application environments coupled with many applications such as remote monitoring for a cost-effective solution.

Just plug and view the picture from your Internet Camera with a valid IP Address.

Supports a Variety of Platforms

Supporting TCP/IP networking, SMTP e-mail, HTTP and other Internet related protocols, the Internet Camera can be utilized in a mixed operating system environment such as Windows, Unix, and Macintosh.
