Initially setting up the unit using a computer connected by the supplied Null Modem cable, you can quickly configure the unit for remote use using an external modem; whereby your video images can even be uploaded to your preferred Internet Service Provider (ISP) to allow global access to your live images from any browser on the Internet.
