IMPORTANT:
A hardware reset of the Internet Camera is now required to allow the
IP Installer
program to configure the camera correctly. To accomplish this reset, lightly insert
a paper clip (or a similar sized tool) into the reset hole on the back of the camera
(see page 6 for the location of the reset button.)
The LED on the front of the
camera will begin blinking red and green.
When it stops the blinking cycle
continue to hold in the reset button until a second cycle of blinking red and green
lights indicates a second reset cycle has completed.
This will take approximately
5-7 seconds.
The
IP Installer
will now show a MAC address for the
DCS-5300W
and an IP
address. This IP address may not be correct at this step in the installation.
The opening
IP Installer
screen will
appear and
show a MAC address of
the
DCS-5300W
and an IP Address
(which may or may not be correct
depending on what you have your
DCS-5300W
connected to.) If you
have a DHCP* server on your network,
there will be a valid IP Address
displayed here.
*A DHCP server is a device that
supplies IP Addresses to its clients
that are on the same network.

After you click on the
Link
button,
IP Installer
will
automatically open your
Internet browser to the IP
Address of the
DCS-
5300W
. In this example,
Your
DCS-5300W
may
have a different IP Ad-
dress.

Enabling UPnP for Windows XP/ME
UPnP is short for Universal Plug and Play, which is a networking architecture
that provides compatibility among networking equipment, software, and
peripherals. The
DCS-5300W
is a UPnP enabled internet camera. If your
operating system is UPnP enabled, the device will be easier to configure. If you
do not want to use the UPnP functionality, it can be disabled by unselecting
“
Enabled
” on the DDNS/UPnP settings page under “Advanced” in the
configuration menu. Use the following steps to enable UPnP (Universal Plug
and Play) settings only if you are running Windows XP/ME. If you are running
Windows 98/2000, UPnP is not available by industry standards.
