EthernetCable Connector
The DCS-900W features an RJ-45 connector for connections to 10Base-T Ethernet cabling
or 100Base-TX Fast Ethernet cabling (which should be Category 5 UTP
cable). The port
supports the NWay protocol, allowing the DCS-900W to automatically detect or negotiate
the transmission speed of the network.
DC Power Connector
The DC power input connector is labeled
DC 5V
with a single jack socket to supply
power to the DCS-900W.
Reset Button
Reset will be initiated when the reset button is pressed once and Power LED begins to
flash.
Factory Reset will be initiated when the reset button is pressed continuously for three
seconds or when the Power LED begins to light up. Release the reset button and the
Power LED will begin to flash indicating that the DCS-900W’s settings are reverting
back to the factory settings. The IP address will also return to the default setting of

Security
To ensure the highest security and prevent unauthorized usage of the DCS-900W, the
Administrator has the exclusive privilege to create all users. The DCS-900W supports
multi-level password protection/access that can be restricted by the Administrator for
defined users who have a
User Name
and
User Password
.
The Administrator can release a public
User Name
and
Password
so that when remote
users access the DCS-900W they will be allowed to view the images transmitted by the
DCS-900W.
Note:
When the DCS-900W is used for the first time, it is highly recommended that the
Administrator set the
Admin ID
and
Admin Password
to constrain user access to the
DCS-900W since the Default settings are Null String (no password). Once the ID and
Password are defined, only the Administrator has access to the management of the
DCS-900W. This procedure should be done as soon as possible since the security
features of the DCS-900W will not be enabled until the
Admin ID
and
Admin Password
is defined.
