Confirming the Internet access Due to the router specifications, the image may not be displayed even if you access the camera from your PC on the same LAN as the camera. In this case, access the camera in the following procedures. Accessing from the PC on another network (see page 13) Accessing from your cell phone (see page 38) 2.8.1 DynamicDNS Service (IPv4/IPv6) DynamicDNS allows you to choose an easy-to-remember address (such as bob.viewnetcam.com) that you can use to view images from your camera over the Internet. This service is compatible with both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses. Some DynamicDNS service is not compatible with IPv6 address. What is the advantage of DynamicDNS service? In order to view camera images over the Internet, you need to know your cameras global IP address. However, many Internet Service Providers (ISPs) assign their customers a dynamic IP address that changes monthly, weekly, or each time they log on. Unless you have been assigned a static IP address (an IP address that does not change periodically) by your ISP, you may find it difficult to access your camera over the Internet because your IP address changes periodically. Viewnetcam.com service allows you to access your camera even if your assigned global IP address changes.
Operating Instructions [For assistance, please call: 1-800-272-7033] 69 How the DynamicDNS service works 1.Your ISP assigns a global IP address to your Internet access account that changes periodically. This is the address needed to access the camera over the Internet. 2.When your ISP assigned global IP address changes, your camera automatically notifies the DynamicDNS service server of the new address in the DynamicDNS. The camera notifies the DynamicDNS service server of the new address in DynamicDNS in the following cases. – When starting the camera – Depending the time to be set at the update interval – When clicking the [Save] button 3.The DynamicDNS server contacts a Domain Name System (DNS) and registers your new global IP address to your chosen DynamicDNS address (such as bob.viewnetcam.com). 4.When you enter your DynamicDNS address in your web browser while away from home or the office, the DNS server looks up the global IP address assigned to your DynamicDNS address. 5.The DNS server finds your current global IP address and allows you to connect to your camera. Note Ask your ISP about what type of IP address you are using. Some ISPs assign you a local IP address. In this case, you cannot use the DynamicDNS service. If the camera is using a port number other than 80, the port number must be specified at the end of the DynamicDNS URL. For example: Using port 80: http://(Cameraname).viewnetcam.com Using any other port: http://(Cameraname).viewnetcam.com:Port Number DynamicDNS service server ISP DNS server Internet New address registered with DNS serverCamera reports new address Camera connection establishedGlobal IP address changes Off-site PCOn-site Network Camera DNS looks up current address3. 4.2. 1. 5.

Date and time are used for each images (Single, Multi and Buffered), Trigger, Alarm Log and Operation Time. Note Saving the date and time settings deletes all buffered images on the internal memory. 1.Click [Date and Time] on the Setup page. 2.Set each parameter. Set [Automatic Time Adjustment] to synchronize the time automatically with an NTP server. Clicking [Cancel] cancels your settings without saving changes.
