Why does the Power LED not light up constantly?
The power supply used might be at fault. Confirm that you are using the provided power supply, which is DC 5V, for
the Internet Camera and verify that the power supply is well connected.
Why does the LAN LED not light up properly?
There might be a problem with the network cable. To confirm that the cables are working, PING the address of a known
device on the network. If the cabling is OK and your network is reachable, you should receive a reply similar to the
following (…bytes = 32 time = 2 ms).
Another possible problem may be that the network device utilized by the Internet Camera is not functioning properly,
such as hubs or switches. Confirm the power for the devices are well connected and functioning properly.
Why can’t I
access the Internet Camera from a Web browser?
The possible cause might be the IP Address for the Internet Camera is already being used by another device. To
correct the possible problem, you need to first disconnect the Internet Camera from the network. Then run the PING
utility (follow the instructions in the section titled “PING Your IP Address:). If there is a reply, it indicates that there is
another device on the network with the same IP address. You will need to run the Install Wizard again and change the
IP address of the camera.
Other possible problems might be due to the network cable. Try replacing your network cable. Test the network interface
of the product by connecting a local computer directly to the unit, utilizing a standard Crossover Cable, and run the
PING utility. If the problem is not solved, the Internet Camera might be faulty.

Why does the Internet Camera work locally but not externally?
This might be caused by the firewall protection. Check the Internet firewall with your system administrator. The firewall
may need to have some settings changed in order for the Internet Camera to be accessible outside your local LAN.
Refer to page 41 for more information about installing your camera behind a router.
Make sure ahat the Internet Camera isn’t conflicting with any web server you may have running on your network.
The default router setting might be a possible reason. Check that the configuration of the router settings allow the
Internet Camera to be accessed outside your local LAN.
Why does a series of broad vertical white lines appear through out the image?
It could be that the CMOS sensor (a square panel situated behind the lens that measures the light signals and changes
it into a digital format so your computer can present it into an image that you are familiar with) has become overloaded
when it has been exposed to bright lights such as direct exposure to sunlight or halogen lights. Reposition the Internet
Camera into a more shaded area immediately as prolonged exposure to bright lights will damage the CMOS sensor.
The focus on the Internet Camera is bad, how can I correct it?
Adjust the Internet Camera focus manually as described in the section titled “Adjusting the Camera Focus” on page
76.
Noisy images occur. How can I solve the problem?
The video images might be noisy if the Internet Camera is used in a very low light environment. To solve this issue you
need more lighting, or click on the
Nighshot
button on the Home page.
