Using Remote Viewing
Using the Werks Software, and your My LukWerks account, you can access live video from your cameras
anywhere in the world using a Windows Media enabled Internet browser, wireless PDA, or cell phone.
When you enable Remote Viewing, your Werks PC becomes a video server ready to publish video through the
secure LukWerks network over the Internet to you, wherever you are. LukWerks intelligently creates the most
efficient path through your local routers to your remote device. You connect to your video feed by going to
www.lukwerks.com and logging into your My LukWerks account – using a username and password you set.
Once connected to your account, you select the site and cameras you want to view. The LukWerks server then
routes a live video feed to your device.
During this process, LukWerks automatically determines your system’s firewall settings and Internet capability
in order to stream video to you in the most direct way possible. If Werks cannot find a direct path, we direct
the video feed through WiLife’s network to you. We call this mode “Relayed Mode.” In this mode, there is a
three-minute time limit. If Werks finds a direct path, you are connected via “Direct Mode.” In Direct Mode,
there is no time limit. You can view a video feed for any length of time.
The following illustration shows the remote viewing process.

through all cameras, or view all cameras at once.
