IP Address- Method A. Install and run the Observer Setup Utility included on the CD-ROM.

1.Refer to Chapter 4: PC Software Installation if you need help installing the software.

2.Click on the Veo Observer Setup Utility icon to run the program.

3.Click the “Search for Camera” button.

4.After a few seconds your camera’s MAC address will show up in the list along with any other cameras on the LAN.

Note: Your camera’s MAC address can be found on a sticker located on the bottom of the camera. The number looks like 000364017F3B.

5.Select your camera from the list and you will see your camera’s IP address and other network settings show up on the right side.

6.Click the “Login” button to launch Internet Explorer and view the camera’s home page.

Note: The Observer uses DHCP by default, meaning its address can change. You can assign a static (fixed) IP address by selecting this option and

changing the address manually. Refer to Chapter 5: Observer Setup Utility for more information.

IP Address- Method B. (Shortcut) Use the IP address display.

Other than the last 3 digits, all devices on a LAN share the same IP address. The portion of the address common to all devices is known as the network address. Most home networks use either 192.168.0 or 192.168.1 for their network address. If you know your network address, you can simply combine it with the 3 digits shown on the camera’s display to determine the complete IP address of the camera. For example, if your network address is 192.168.0 and the camera display is showing 020, the IP address for the camera is 192.168.0.20 (drop leading zeros). You can easily determine your network address by checking the IP address of any PC on the network or using the Observer Setup Utility.
