IPView Lite

This section describes the operation of the IPView Lite application User Interface with

detailed procedures for using the application.

IPView Lite allows you to manage your cameras by enabling you to search, configure

and preview all the DCS-950Gs from one location. It is designed with a user-friendly

interface for ease of control and navigation.

When IPView Lite is used for the first time, it is highly recommended that the Administrator

change the

User Name

and

Password

for security purposes. Once the

User Name

and

Password

are defined, only the Administrator has access to the management of

IPView

Lite applications. This procedure should be done as soon as possible to prevent

unauthorized usage of the IPView Lite application.

To change the administrator

User Name

and

Password,

select

Tools > Options

. The

Options

dialog box will appear (see below).

Enter a

User Name

and enter the

Password

twice. Once all the new details are entered

click

OK

.

Note:

Only cameras on your local area network can be located using Browse in

IPView Lite.

If you want to add a camera via the Internet, you must enter in a physical

IP Address. Remember that if your camera is behind a router, you will need to enter

your router’s WAN IP followed by a colon, then the port number that is assigned to your

camera, i.e. 68.2.34.156:800, where 68.2.34.156 is your router’s WAN IP and :800 is

the port that your camera is using.

For more detailed information, please refer to the

section titled “Installing the DCS-950G Behind a Router Configuration”

on page 48.

To add a new camera select

Camera

>

Add

from the IPView Lite.

An

Add Camera

dialog box will appear. (See below.)

Enter the IP Address of the camera in the specified field and click

Add

. If the IP Address

is entered incorrectly or if you have a bad network connection, a dialog box will appear to

notify you of the error. To add cameras in IPView Lite, check that you have your network

configured correctly. To add a remote camera, you need to have Internet access.

If you are unsure of the IP Address of the camera, you can click on

Browse to search

for cameras on your local area network
