Chapter 2 Operation

Network Tab

Step 4 Click the Save button to save the settings, or click the Reset button to clear all of the information you entered without saving it.

Note If the camera is not connected to a DHCP server but DHCP is set to On, the default IP address 192.168.0.20 on subnet mask 255.255.255.0 is automatically assigned to the camera. After the first camera is connected and assigned the default IP address, the system will automatically look for other cameras on the auto IP address system and assign IP addresses in sequential order as required. For example, if three cameras are connected to a network without a DHCP server, the first camera will be assigned address 192.168.0.20, the second camera will be assigned address 192.168.0.21, and the third camera will be assigned address 192.168.0.22.
