There are three holes located in the base of the camera stand allowing the Internet Camera to be mounted on the ceiling or any wall securely.

Security

To ensure the highest security and prevent unauthorized usage of the Internet

Camera, the Administrator has the exclusive privilege to access the System

Administration setting to allow users the security level of entry and authorize privileges for all users. The Internet Camera supports multi-level password protection/access to the Internet Camera that can be restricted to defined users who have a “User Name” and “User Password” which is assigned by the Administrator.

The administrator can release a public user name and password so that when remote users access the Internet Camera they will have the right to view the image transmitted by the Internet Camera.

Note:

When the Internet Camera 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 Internet Camera since the Default settings are Null String

(no password). Once the ID and Password are defined only the Administrator has the access to the management of the Internet Camera. This procedure should be done as soon as possible since the security features of the Internet

Camera will not be enabled until the “Admin ID” and “Admin Password” is defined.

10

Using the Internet Camera as a

Security System

D-Link's IP Camera System is one of the most cost effect security solutions today. Both the DCS-1000 Wired model and DCS-1000W Wired/Wireless model have input/output controls for interfacing with security systems.

On the back of the Camera you will find an 8-position connector. This connector has 2 input triggers for security sensors and 2 output triggers for security alarms.

Security sensors for input are available as Passive (lowcurrent/low voltage) sensors or Active (powered) sensors.

Because of power limitations of the DCS cameras and its compatibility with Power over

Ethernet standards the sensor power requirement must be obeyed for proper operation.

We have listed Passive and Active components that will interface with the DCS family of

Cameras. Passive components must not exceed 5V 100mA. Active components must be self-powered by an external power source.

For the demonstration below a D-Link DCS-1000 was purchased from www.dlinkshop.com

, the security equipment was purchased from www.smarthome.com, and some cable accessories from a local hardware store.

Basic Hardware Set-up Diagram

The diagram below shows the hardware configuration for 1 Active Sensor (PIR Motion

Sensor), 1 Passive Sensor (Magnetic Switch), and 1 output (For Relay) for a siren.

Passive Component Notes!!!

Only simple magnetic or contact switches can be used for Passive components. This limitation is by the camera only supplying 5V and less then 100mA current to those circuits. Distance for passive components is limited by a viewable camera range of about

25 Ft using 26GA wire.

Active Component Notes!!!

A separate power supply is needed for these devices. In order to choose the proper PS.

The total current draw by all the components cannot exceed the Max supplied by the power supply.

Example

Our PIR Motion Detector = 17 mA = .017A

Our Relay = 60 mA = .06A

Siren = 200mA = .20A

Total : .277A

Purchased DC power adapter 12V DC 1.2A Max to cover all Active Sensors and Siren, with room to grow.

Camera Configuration

Follow the instructions for setting up your wired or wireless camera. If the camera is for home use and is behind an Internet router, additional set-up notes for your router can be found on www.dlink.com.

Once logged into the camera on the main menu click/select trigger and the following screen will appear.

These fields control Input Trigger 1 and Trigger 2. Each Input Trigger can trigger either or both Output triggers.

SMTP Server Address: Name or IP address of a Mail Server that camera can use to send.

Sender E-Mail: Name of the Camera that sent the mail

Receiver E-Mail: Name of person to receive pictures when sensors are activated

Sending Interval: The time between additional sequences of pictures are taken when sensors activated

Sending Times: The number of times the camera takes additional sequences of pictures based on Sending Interval.

Trigger I/O: Enable Output trigger for the specified input trigger

Output # Time: How long the output trigger is activated if the sensor is activated. (ie.

How long should the siren ring?)

INPUT TRIGGER RESPONSE NOTES!!!

The camera will take a sequence of pictures and the output trigger is activated when there is a change which will open or close the sensor. Example: The magnetic switch is opened, a sequence is sent and the siren goes off. The switch is then closed, an additional sequence is sent and the alarm goes off. The camera is designed this way so if there is an intrusion, the intrusion is detected if the intruder simply opens then closes the entrance.

Wireless Interface

(for Wireless Internet Camera only)

:

Connection Mode:

Use the Connection Mode to determine the type of wireless communication for the Internet Camera. There are three choices of Infrastructure mode, 802.11

Adhoc mode and Adhoc mode. The default setting for the Connection Mode is

Infrastructure.

Note:

Keep in mind that after setting the Wireless Interface make sure that the Slide

Switch on the rear panel is positioned to either LAN/WLAN or WLAN setting for the wireless communication to take effect.

19

Network Name: (for Wireless Internet Camera only)

This field is used to setup which wireless network (ESS-ID Extended Service

Set ID) DCS-1000W is to be connected for communication. The ESS-ID is a unique identifier shared among all points in a wireless network environment.

The default Network Name is a blank space (NULL String); this default setting will let the Internet Camera connect to any access point under the infrastructure network mode.

To connect the Internet Camera to a specific access point on the network make sure that you set the ESS-ID of the Internet Camera to correspond with the access point’s ESS-ID. Type any string up to 32 characters long (spaces, symbols, and punctuation are not allowed) in the Network Name box.

To connect the Internet Camera to an Ad-hoc wireless workgroup make sure that you set the same wireless channel and ESS-ID to match with the PC/

Notebook wireless channel and ESS-ID for direct wireless communication under the Ad-hoc wireless workgroup (ad-hoc and 802.11 ad-hoc modes).

Note:

The Internet Camera supports two ad-hoc modes (802.11 ad-hoc mode and proprietary ad-hoc mode). Which option of the ad-hoc mode required depends on the operation of your Internet Camera. It depends on which ad-hoc mode is supported by your wireless card driver on the PC/Notebook. Some drivers supports both modes, however, some drivers support only one of the modes.

The names of each ad-hoc mode may not be consistent between each wireless card vendor therefore you may need to try each of the ad-hoc modes (802.11

mode and proprietary mode) and select the mode that can communicate with each other.

Wireless Channel: (for Wireless Internet Camera only)

The pull down menu provides the wireless channel for communication. A

“channel” is a range of frequencies to be used in communication between the

Internet Camera and Access Point in infrastructure mode or the Internet Camera and PC/Notebook in Ad-hoc mode. Select the appropriate channel from the list provided depending on the regulatory region in which the unit is sold. The default setting is channel 11.

20

Encryption WEP Key: (for Wireless Internet Camera only)

Wireless network communications are easily intercepted. WEP (Wired

Equivalent Privacy) is an encryption method specified by the IEEE 802.11b

standard to make any intercepted communications extremely difficult to interpret by unauthorized parties.

To enable WEP Encryption, first decide which WEP key format will be applied.

Click on ASCII or HEX check box to select input format as ASCII format or HEX format, and then input the WEP key. To Confirm the WEP key you must enter the data once again in the Confirm WEP Key field.

ASCII input format: (for Wireless Internet Camera only)

ASCII format causes each character you type to be interpreted as an eight-bit value. All unaccented upper- and lower-case Western European characters that can be input through your keyboard’s typing zone are valid. To setup 64-bit

WEP key, input 5 ASCII characters, for example, ‘12345’. To setup 128-bit WEP key, input 13 ASCII characters, for example, ‘1234567890123’. These character counts result in bit counts of 40 and 104, respectively; the Internet Camera will automatically pad your input to a bit count of 64 or 128.

HEX input format:

(for Wireless Internet Camera only)

Hex format causes each pair of characters you type to be interpreted as an eight-bit value in hexadecimal (base 16) notation. Only the digits 0 through 9 and the letters A through F (in upper or lower case) are valid. To setup 64-bit

WEP key, input 10 HEX format, for example, ‘3132333435’, this is the same with ASCII input ‘12345’. To setup 128-bit WEP key, input 26 HEX format, for example, ‘31323334353637383930313233’, this is the same with ASCII input

‘1234567890123’. These character counts result in bit counts of 40 and 104, respectively; the Internet Camera will automatically pad your input to a bit count of 64 or 128.

On the Confirm WEP Key field, input the same characters as the Encryption

Code field.

Make sure the Encryption Code is the same with the access point’s encryption code that the Internet Camera is to be connected under Infrastructure mode.

Your PC/Notebook’s encryption code also needs to be setup the same with the

Internet Camera’s encryption code under either Infrastructure mode or Ad-hoc mode.

21

The default setting for the Encryption Key is Disable. Therefore, to secure the wireless transmission be sure to Enable the Encryption Key by entering the relevant data.

Note:

Carefully input the Encryption Code, any error setting the code will cause the communication link to fail.

LED Control:

The LED control allows you to setup the LED illumination as desired. This feature provides the flexibility when surveillance activity is ON.

There are three options as follows:

ƒ Normal

Power - Steady On of the LED indicator.

LAN/WLAN - Steady On of the LED indicator. When LAN/WLAN activity is present the LED indicator will flash steadily.

ƒ OFF

Power - LED indicator is off

LAN/WLAN – LED indicator is off

ƒ Dummy

Power - Steady On of the LED indicator.

LAN/WLAN -

Steady On of the LED indicator with random flashing.

Note: The WLAN LED is only available on the Wireless Internet

Camera

The default setting for the LED control is Normal. When you have configured the LED control the correct illumination will set in after 1 minute.

Note:

This function is built-in to the LED indicators to add extra capabilities. The three options allow the Administrator to configure and camouflage the illumination for the LED indicator to falsify the monitoring status. In Normal Mode the LED indicator functions normally. Under Off Mode the LED indicators are both off, however, it is still monitoring the activity. In Dummy Mode the LED indicators operate in monitoring condition but monitoring activity is off or on.

Loading ActiveX From:

This field is used to specify the location of Xplug Control (ActiveX) plug-in program. Enter the information as required in .ocx format, for example: http://www.<your company>.com/xplug.ocx where <your company> must be replaced with your company’s DNS server.

A: If a firewall exists on the network, port 80 is open for ordinary data communication. However, since Internet Camera transmits image data, the default port 8481 is also required. Therefore, it is necessary to open port 8481 of the network for remote users to access the Internet Camera.

Troubleshooting

Q: I cannot access the Internet Camera from a web browser?

A1: 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

74

need to first disconnect the Internet Camera from the network. Then run the

PING utility (follow the instructions in Appendix B - PING Your IP Address.)

A2: Another possible reason is the IP Address is located on a different subnet.

To fix the problem, run the PING utility (follow the instructions in Appendix B -

PING Your IP Address). If the utility returns “no response” or similar, the finding is probably correct, then you should proceed as follows:

In Windows 95/98/2000 and Windows NT, check that the IP Address of the

Internet Camera is within the same subnet as your workstation.

ƒ Click Start, Setting, Control Panel, and the Network icon.

ƒ Select TCP/IP from the Network dialog box and from the TCP/IP

Properties dialog box click on Specify an IP address.

ƒ If the Internet Camera is situated on a different subnet than your workstation, you will not be able to set the IP address from this workstation.

To verify make sure the first 3 sections of the IP address of the Internet

Camera corresponds to the first 3 sections of the workstation. Therefore the IP address of the Internet Camera must be set from a workstation on the same subnet.

A3: 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 to the unit, utilizing a standard Crossover (hub to hub) Cable. If the problem is not solved the Internet Camera might be faulty.

Q: Why does the Power LED not light up constantly?

A: 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.

Q: Why does the LAN/WLAN LED not light up properly?

A1: There might be a problem with the network cable. To confirm that the cables are working, PING the address of a know 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).

A2: 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.

75

A3: The wireless connection might be at fault. In ad-hoc mode make sure the

Internet Camera wireless channel and ESS-ID is set to match the PC/Notebook wireless channel and ESS-ID for direct communication. Since The Internet

Camera ad-hoc mode supports two modes (802.11 ad-hoc mode and proprietary ad-hoc mode), make sure that you are using the same mode on each device. If they are not the same, the camera will not be accessible.

Under infrastructure mode make sure the ESS-ID on the PC/Notebook and the

Internet Camera must match with the Access Point’s ESS-ID.

Q: Why does the Internet Camera work locally but not externally?

A1: Might be caused from 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.

A2: Make sure that the Internet Camera isn’t conflicting with any web server you may have running on your network.

A3: 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.

Q: Why does a series of broad vertical white line appear through out the image?

A: It could be that the CMOS sensor 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.

Q: The focus on the Internet Camera is bad, how can I correct it?

A1: Adjust the Internet Camera focus manually as described in “Adjusting the

Internet Camera Focus” in the Appendix section of this manual.

A2: If you have previously changed the supplied CS-type lens, you may have unintentionally installed a C-type lens without fitting the adaptor first.

Q: Noisy images occur. How can I solve the problem?

A1: 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.

76

A2: There might be wireless transmission interference. Make sure there are no other wireless devices on the network that will affect the wireless transmission.

Q: The images is of poor quality, how can I improve the image quality?

A1: Make sure that your computers display properties are set to at least 15bit color. Using 16 or 256 colors on your computer will produce dithering artifacts in the image, making the image look as if it has bad quality.

A2: The configuration on the Internet Camera image display is incorrect. Through the Web Configuration Image section of the web management you need to adjust the image related parameter for improve images such as brightness, contrast, hue and light frequency. Please refer to the Web Configuration section for detail information.

Q: There are no images available through the web browser?

A1: The ActiveX might be disabled. If you are viewing the images from Internet

Explorer make sure ActiveX has been enabled in the Internet Options menu.

Alternatively, you can use the Java Applet for viewing the required images.

A2: If you are using Windows XP, please make sure that you have downloaded

Java and installed it properly.

A3: Make sure that your web browser supports Java. If you are using Internet

Explorer or Netscape Navigator with a version number of lower than 4, then you will need to upgrade your web browser software in order to view the streaming video transmitted by the Internet Camera.

How to PING Your IP Address

The PING (Packet Internet Groper) command can determine whether a specific

IP address is accessible by sending a packet to the specific address and waiting for a reply. It can also provide a very useful tool to confirm if the IP address conflicts with Internet Camera over the network.

Follow the step-by-step procedure below to utilize the PING command but first you must disconnect Internet Camera from the network.

Start a DOS window.

Type ping x.x.x.x, where x.x.x.x is the IP address of the Internet Camera.

Four successive “Reply from” statements indicate connectivity.
