Connecting the Camera and Personal Computer by Network (Cont.)
Using LAN Cable
The following shows two different network configurations using a LAN cable connection to operate the network camera.
・Crossover connection ・Connection via a hub
● Using a crossover cable to establish a connection (example)
Network camera | Personal computer |
IP address | IP address |
192.168.0.30 | 192.168.0.50 |
LAN cable (crossover)
Crossover cable is not provided with the product.
● Establishing a connection via a hub (example)
Network camera
IP address� 192.168.0.30
Internet
Personal computer
Hub
IP address� 192.168.0.50
LAN cable（straight through）� LAN cable（straight through）�
NOTE
●You do not need to assign an IP address to a hub.
●In the case of not using DHCP server, the IP address for the camera is automatically set to 192.168.0.30 in default. Therefore, set the IP address for your computer to 192.168.0.50 here.
●There will be no problem to use the LAN port of your broadband router instead of using a hub.
However, when using the broadband router, if the DHCP server function is set "ON" and turn on the power after connecting the camera with the router, the camera gets the IP address from the router's DHCP server and it may not be 192.168.0.30.
For more information, read your user's guide for broadband router.
It is also recommended to set the computer's IP address from the router's DHCP server.
For more information, read your computer's user's guide.
