To log into your camera directly via an Internet Explorer browser:

• Run the IP Camera Search tool - SearchIPCam.exe found on your camera's installation CD.

• Double click on your camera's IP address to log into your camera via an Internet Explorer browser

If the web interface opens in a different browser, like Firefox or Chrome, simply COPY / PASTE the link in the address bar into an Internet Explorer browser.

Username: admin

• Choose the language: English, Spanish, etc.

If using IE browser to connect to the camera for the first time, and there is no image displayed, there will be an ActiveX prompt, please click the prompt and choose Run Add-on, refresh the IE interface, and login to the camera again, then you will see live video.
