networked devices, such as printing and file sharing, are available among each
other without bothersome network configuration. In the case of Network Cameras,
you will see Network Camera shortcuts at My Network Places.
D-Link DCS-6110 User Manual

Section 3 - Configuration
Enabling UPnP port forwarding allows the Network Camera to open secondary HTTP port on the router, not HTTP port, meaning
that you have to add the secondary HTTP port number behind the Network Camera’s public address in order to access the Network
Camera from the Internet. For example, when the HTTP port is set to 80 and the secondary HTTP port is set to 8080, refer to the
list below for the Network Camera’s IP address.
From the Internet
In a local area network
http://203.67.124.123:8080
http://192.168.4.160 or
http://192.168.4.160:8080
If the PPPoE settings are incorrectly configured or the Internet access is not working, restore the Network Camera to factory default.
After the Network Camera is reset to factory default, it is accessible in a local area network.
Enable UPnP Port
Forwarding: Enables the camera to add the port forwarding entry into the router automatically when this option is enabled.
PPPoE Settings: Enable this setting if your ISP (DSL service) is using PPPoE. You may already have both Username and Password given by your ISP,
or you may check with your ISP. The Connect Status will be determined automatically by the system.
HTTP: You may configure two HTTP ports for your camera. HTTP ports allow you to connect to the camera via a standard web browser.
These ports can be set to a number other than the default TCP ports 80 and 8080. A corresponding port must be opened on the
router. For example, if the port is changed to 1010, users must type in the web browser “http://192.168.0.100:1010” instead of
“http://192.168.0.100”.
Authentication: Authentication: Choose either Basic where the password is not encrypted, or Digest where the password is encrypted during the
transmission to the web server.
Basic authentication: When selected, the password is sent in plain text format; there can be potential risks of being intercepted.
Digest authentication: When selected, user credentials are encrypted in MD5 algorithm and thus provide better protection against
unauthorized accesses.
HTTP Port: The default value is 80.
D-Link DCS-6110 User Manual

Access name for The default name is video.mjpg.
stream1:
Access name for The default name is video2.mjpg.
stream2:
Access name for stream 1 / Access name for stream 2 : The access name is used to differentiate the streaming source. When using
Mozilla Firefox or Netscape to access the Network Camera, and the video mode is set to JPEG, users will receive continuous JPEG
pictures. This technology, known as "server push", allows the Network Camera to feed live pictures to Mozilla Firefox and Netscape.
Use http://<ip address>:<http port>/<access name for stream1 or stream2> to make connection.
For example, when the access name for stream 1 is set to video.mjpg:
1 : Launch Mozilla Firefox or Netscape.
2 : Type the URL command in the address field. Press Enter.
3 : The JPEG images will be displayed in your web browser.
FTP Port: Default port is 21. If you want to change the port number, you will need to specify the port when connecting to the FTP server. For example
FTP://68.5.1.81:60 (if you use port 60 for your FTP server)
RTSP Streaming: This setting enables you to connect to a camera by using streaming mobile device(s), such as a mobile phone or PDA.
Authentication: Choose either Basic where the password is not encrypted, or Digest where the password is encrypted during the transmission to the web
server. After you have enabled the Authentication, you will need to configure and use the access name to access your video file. RTSP://

Multicast group An IP Multicast group address is used to send and receive content. Sources use this group address as the destination address while
address: sending their data packets. Receivers use this group address to inform the network that they are interested in receiving packets sent to
that group.
For example, if some content is associated with group 239.1.1.1, the source will send data packets destined to 239.1.1.1. Receivers for that
content will inform the network that they are interested in receiving data packets sent to the group 239.1.1.1. The receiver “joins” 239.1.1.1.
The Multicast address ranges from 224.0.0.0 to 239.255.255.255, or, equivalently, 224.0.0.0/4

Unicast video transmission delivers a stream through point-to-point transmission; multicast, on the other hand, sends a stream to the
multicast group address and allows multiple clients to acquire the stream by requesting a copy from the Multicast
group address.
The five ports can be changed between 1025 and 65535. The multicast RTP port must be an even number and the multicast RTCP port
is multicast RTP port number plus one, and thus always be odd. When the multicast RTP port changes, the multicast RTCP port will
change accordingly.

There are two parameters for setting the motion detection: Sensitivity and Percentage. In the illustration above, frame A and frame
B are two sequential images. Pixel differences between the two frames are detected and highlighted in gray (frame C), and will
be compared with the sensitivity setting. Sensitivity is a value that expresses the sensitivity to moving objects. Higher sensitivity
settings are expected to sense a slight movement while smaller sensitivity settings tend to neglect it. When the sensitivity is set to
70%, the Network Camera defines the pixels in the purple areas as “alerted pixels” (frame D). Percentage is a value that expresses
the proportion of “alerted pixels” to all pixels in the motion detection window. In this case, 50% of pixels are identified as “alerted
pixels”. When the percentage is set to 30%, the motions are judged to exceed the defined threshold; therefore, the motion window
will be outlined in red.
For applications that require higher security management, it is suggested to set higher sensitivity settings and smaller percentage
values.

Frequently Asked Questions
This chapter provides solutions to problems that may occur during the installation and operation of the DCS-6110. Read the following
descriptions if you are having any problems.
Note: The examples below are illustrated in Windows XP. If you have a different operating system, the screenshots on
your computer will look similar to the following examples.
Fixed Dome Network Camera Features
1. What is a Fixed Dome Network Camera?
The Fixed Dome Network Camera is a stand-alone system connecting directly to an Ethernet or Fast Ethernet network. The Fixed
Dome Network Camera differs from a conventional PC Camera because it has an integrated system with built-in CPU and web-based
solutions, providing a low cost solution that can transmit high quality video images for monitoring. The Fixed Dome Network Camera
can be remotely managed, accessed and controlled from any PC/Notebook over an Intranet or Internet using a web browser.
2. What is the maximum number of users that can access DCS-6110 simultaneously?
The maximum number of users that can log onto the Fixed Dome Network Camera at the same time is 10. Please keep in mind the
overall performance of the transmission speed will be reduced if many users have logged on to the camera simultaneously.
There is no limited user when multicast-enabled router is used. This helps to reduce the network transmission load.
Note that to utilize this feature; the Network Camera must be configured to enable multicast streaming at the same time. For more
information, see RTSP Streaming on page 41.
3. What algorithm is used to compress the digital image?
The Fixed Dome Network Camera utilizes MPEG-4 simple profile or MJPEG Mode image compression technology providing high
quality images. MJPEG is a standard for image compression and it can be applied to various web browsers and application software
without installing any extra software
4. Can I capture still images from the Fixed Dome Network Camera?
Yes you can capture still images using the snapshot function.

Section 5 - Frequently Asked Questions
Fixed Dome Network Camera Installation
1. Can the Network Camera be used outdoors?
The Fixed Dome Network Camera is not weatherproof. It needs to be equipped with a weatherproof case for outdoor use but it is not
recommended.
2. When physically connecting the Fixed Dome Network Camera to a network, what network cabling is
required?
The Fixed Dome Network Camera uses Category 5 UTP cable allowing 10 Base-T and 100 Base-T networking solutions.
3. Can the Fixed Dome Network Camera be setup as a PC-cam on a computer?
No, the Fixed Dome Network Camera is used only on an Ethernet or Fast Ethernet network. The D-Link DSB-C110, DSB-C310, can
be used as a PC Camera (Webcam).
4. Can the Fixed Dome Network Camera be connected to the network if it consists only of private IP
addresses?
The Fixed Dome Network Camera can be connected to a LAN with private IP addresses.
5. Can the Fixed Dome Network Camera be installed and work if a firewall exists on the network?
If a firewall exists on the network, port 80 is open for ordinary data communication. The DCS-6110 uses port 5002 for streaming
audio and port 5003 for streaming video. These ports (or the ports you have specified in the Setup Tab in the Configuration screen)
need to be opened on the firewall.
6. Why am I unable to access the Fixed Dome Network Camera from a web browser?
If a router or firewall is used on the network, the correct ports for the DCS-6110 may not be configured on the router or firewall.
To correct the problem, you need to determine if the DCS-6110 is behind a router or firewall and if the router or firewall is properly
configured for the ports the DCS-6110 is using. Refer to Page 28 for help in opening the correct ports on a router or firewall for use
with the DCS-6110. 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 Ethernet crossover cable. If the problem is not solved,
the Fixed Dome Network Camera might be faulty.
7. Why does the Fixed Dome Network Camera work locally but not externally?
• This might be caused by network firewall protection. The setting of the firewall may need to be changed in order for the Fixed Dome
Network Camera to be accessible outside of your local LAN. Check with the Network Administrator for your network.
• Make sure that your Fixed Dome Network Camera isn’t conflicting with any Web server you may have running on your network.
• The default router setting might be a possible reason. Check that the configuration of the router settings allows the Fixed Dome
Network Camera to be accessed outside of your local LAN.
8. I connected the Fixed Dome Network Camera directly to a computer with a cross-over Ethernet cable and
received a Windows error upon running the installation Wizard?
• This Windows error will occur if the Fixed Dome Network Camera is connected to a computer that is not properly configured with
a valid IP address. Turn off DHCP from the Network Settings in Windows and configure the computer with a valid IP address
or connect the camera to a router with DHCP enabled.
• This error can also occur if the Installation Wizard icon is clicked on more than once from the setup wizard.
9. Noisy images occur. How can I solve the problem?
The video images might be noisy if the Fixed Dome Network Camera is used in a very low light environment. To solve this issue you
need more lighting.
10. The images appear to be of poor quality, how can I improve the image quality?
• Make sure that your computer’s display properties are set above 256 colors. Using 16 or 256 colors on your computer will produce
dithering artifacts in the image, making the image appear to be of poor quality.
• The configuration on the Fixed Dome Network Camera image display is incorrect. Through the Setup>Image Setup section of the
Web management you need to adjust the image related parameters such as brightness, white balance and power line frequency for
fluorescent light.

Check your IP address
After you install your new D-Link adapter, by default, the TCP/IP settings should be set to obtain an IP address from a DHCP server
(i.e. wireless router) automatically. To verify your IP address, please follow the steps below.
Click on Start > Run. In the run box type cmd and click OK.
At the prompt, type ipconfig and press Enter.
This will display the IP address, subnet mask, and the
default gateway of your adapter.
If the address is 0.0.0.0, check your adapter installation,
security settings, and the settings on your access point.
Some firewall software programs may block a DHCP
request on newly installed adapters.
If you are connecting to a wireless network at a hotspot
(e.g. hotel, coffee shop, airport), please contact an employee or administrator to verify their wireless network settings.

Statically Assign an IP address
If you are not using a DHCP capable gateway/access point, or you need to assign a static IP address, please follow the steps
below:
Step 1
Windows® XP - Click on Start > Control Panel > Network Connections.
Windows® 2000 - From the desktop, right-click My Network Places > Properties.
Step 2
Right-click on the Local Area Connection which represents your D-Link network adapter and select Properties.
Step 3
Highlight Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and click Properties.
Step 4
Click Use the following IP address and enter an IP address that is on the same subnet as your network or the LAN IP address on
your access point.
Example: If the network camera’s LAN IP address is 192.168.0.1, make your IP address
192.168.0.X where X is a number between 2 and 99. Make sure that the number you choose
is not in use on the network. Set Default Gateway the same as the LAN IP address of your
access point (192.168.0.1).
Set Primary DNS the same as the LAN IP address of your access point (192.168.0.1). The
Secondary DNS is not needed or you may enter a DNS server from your ISP.
Step 5
Click OK twice to save your settings.

3.
When the LED stops the blinking the reset has completed.
RESTORE: 1.
Insert the paperclip or other tool and press on the button
continuously.
2.
Wait for the LED on the front of the camera to blink red and
green and hold the button for 30 seconds.
3.
Withdraw the tool after the second cycle of the LED blinking
and a factory restore has been completed.
