Controlling User Access to the Video Stream
By default, only system administrators can connect to the ICA-650 and view live Video.
If desired, you may apply the access privileges to known users, by requiring each user
to login to the ICA-650 with their individual username and password.
To enable this feature:
1. Connect to the Web-based interface of the ICA-650. (Please check related
chapters for details.)
2. In machine Administration menu, select User.
3. You may add up to 10 users in machine database, choose the user number, and

Making Video available from the Internet
If your LAN is connected to the Internet, typically by a Broadband Gateway/Router and
Broadband modem, you can make the ICA-650 available via the Internet.
ICA-650 Setup
The ICA-650 configuration does NOT have be changed, unless:
•
•
You wish to change the port number from the default value (1024).
You wish to use the DDNS (Dynamic DNS) feature of the ICA-650.
Second HTTP Port Configuration
Normally, HTTP (Web) connections use port 80. Since the ICA-650 uses HTTP, but
port 80 is likely to be used by a Web Server, you can use a different port for the ICA-
650. This port is called the "HTTP Port2". (The first port is port 80.)
The HTTP port2 is disabled in default settings. If you prefer to use a different port
number than port 80, you can specify the port number on the ICA-650's Network
screen, as shown below.
Network Screen
The Network screen is part of the Web-based Administration interface. See Web-
based Management for further details on using this interface.
Viewers need to know this port number in order to connect and
view live Video, so the current communication port number has to
be informed to the remote users to connect to.
L Hint

DDNS (Dynamic DNS)
Many Internet connections use a "Dynamic IP address", where the Internet IP address
is allocated whenever the Internet connection is established.
This means that other Internet users don't know the IP address, so can't establish a
connection.
DDNS is designed to solve this problem, by allowing users to connect to your LAN
using a domain name, rather than an IP address.
To use DDNS:
1. Register for the DDNS service with a supported DDNS service provider. You can
then apply for, and be allocated, a Domain Name.
2. Enter and save the correct DDNS settings on the DDNS Setting screen in the
Network setting menu.
3. Operation is then automatic:
•
The ICA-650 will then automatically contact the DDNS server whenever it
detects that the Internet IP address has changed, and inform the DDNS server
of the new IP address.
•
•
Internet users can then connect to your LAN using the Domain Name
allocated by the DDNS service provider.
Limitation: if the ICA-650 is installed with private IP address behind the NAT
router, please find and enable the DDNS feature on the router. This can
prevent the remote users not able to connect to the camera.
•
DDNS Setting Screen
Router/Gateway Setup for remote viewing
Your Router or Gateway must be configured to pass incoming TCP (HTTP)
connections (from remote viewers) to the ICA-650. The Router/Gateway uses the Port
Number to determine which incoming connections are intended for the ICA-650.
This feature is normally called Port Forwarding or Virtual Servers in the router. The
Port Forwarding/Virtual Server entry tells the Router/Gateway that incoming TCP
connections should be passed to the ICA-650. If necessary, check the user manual for
your Router/Gateway for further details.
15
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
The "Port" for the Port Forwarding / Virtual Server entry above is
the "Second Port" number specified on the Network screen of the
ICA-650.
L Hint
Viewing via the Internet
Clients (viewers) will need a broadband connection; dial-up connections are NOT
recommended.
Using your Web Browser
If using your Web browser, you need to know the address of the camera (either the
Internet IP address or the Domain name) and the correct communication port number.
Enter the address of the ICA-650, and its port number, in the Address (or Location)
field of your Browser.
Example - IP address:
HTTP://203.70.249.52:1024
Where the Router/Gateway's Internet IP address is 203.70.212.52and the "HTTP
Port2" number on the ICA-650 is 1024.
Example - Domain Name:
HTTP://ipcam.dyndns.org:1024
Where the Router/Gateway's Domain name is ipcam.dyndns.org and the " HTTP
Port2" number on the ICA-650 is 1024.
Using the Windows Viewing/Recording Utility
If using the CamView Utility, the details of the ICA-650 must be entered on the Internet
tab of the Add Camera screen.

addresses. The administrator accounts have the supreme power; system will always
accept no matter how IP filter setting was set.
Several examples to explain the logical relations between login names and the IP
policy:
-1-.
User page: Login name 1= 12345, Password=12345, Access Authority=any
IP filter page: Default Policy=Allow, login name1 comes from 192.168.0.A to B=Allow
Result: when the remote users login in the name of 12345 and come from the IP
addresses 192.168.0.A to 192.168.0.B, login will be successful. If these users did not
come from the IP addresses A to B, login access will be rejected.
-2-.
User page: Login name 1= 12345, Password=12345, Access Authority=any
IP filter page: Default Policy=Allow, login name1 comes from 192.168.0.A to B=Deny
Result: when the remote users login in the name of 12345 and come from the IP
addresses 192.168.0.A to 192.168.0.B, login will be denied. If these users did not
come from the IP addresses A to B, login access will be successful.
-3-.
(User page: Login name 1= 12345, Password=12345, Access Authority=any
IP filter page: Default Policy=Deny, login name1 comes from 192.168.0.A to B=Deny/
Allow
Result: login of all the login names will be rejected except the login name “admin”.

Appendix A Alarm I/O Connector
Some features of the Network Camera can be activated by an external sensor that
senses physical changes in the area Network Camera is monitoring. These changes
can include intrusion detection or certain physical change in the monitored area. For
examples, the external sensor can be a door switch or an infrared motion detector.
These devices are customer provided, and are available from dealers who carry
surveillance and security products. Electrically, they must be able to provide a
momentary contact closure.
This Network Camera provides a general I/O terminal block with two digital inputs and
two outputs for device control. Pin 1 and 2 can be connected to an external sensor 1.
Pin 2 and 3 can be connected to an external sensor 2. Both of the inputs, the voltage
will be monitored from the initial state ‘LOW’. The relay switch of pin 4, 5 and 6 can be
used to turn on or off the external device. The relay switch of pin 7 and pin 8 can be
used to turn on or off the external device. External Inputs/Outputs are working
independently.

Troubleshooting
Appendix B Troubleshooting
Q: The video and audio codec is adopted in the Network Camera?
A: The Network Camera utilizes JPEG compression to providing high quality
images. JPEG is a standard for image compression and can be applied to
various web browsers without the need to install extra software. The audio
codec is ADPCM compression.
Q: The maximum number of users access Network Camera simultaneously.
A: The maximum number of users is depending on the total bandwidth accessed
to Network Camera from clients. The data throughout of Network Camera is
around 5~6Mbps. Therefore, the maximum number of connected clients is
varying by settings of resolution and frame rate. Obviously, the performance of
the each connected client will slow down when many users are logged on.
Q: The Network Camera can be used outdoors or not.
A: The Network Camera is not weatherproof. It needs to be equipped with a
weatherproof case for outdoors using. However, equipped with a weatherproof
case will disable the audio function of Network Camera.
Q: The Network Camera will be installed and work if a firewall exists on the
network.
A: If a firewall exists on the network, port 80 is open for ordinary data
communication. The Network Camera uses port 80(default) only. This port (or
the port you specify from the Configuration screen if you change the default
port) needs to be opened on the firewall.
Q: The username and password for the first time or after factory default
reset
A: Username = admin and leave password blank.

replace the space, “ “. • Network may have trouble. Confirm the parameters and
connections of the ICA-650.
Q: Internet Explorer does not seem to work well with the ICA-650
access the login page and other web pages of ICA-650 from Internet
Explorer
Cannot
A: • Another device or computer is already using Maybe the IP Address of the
ICA-650. To confirm this possible problem, disconnect the ICA-650 from the
network first, and then run the PING utility to check it out.
• Maybe due to the network cable. Try correcting your network cable and
configuration. Test the network interface by connecting a local computer to the
ICA-650 via a crossover cable.
• Make sure the Internet connection and setting is ok.
• Make sure enter the IP address of Internet Explorer is correct. If ICA-650 has a
dynamic address, it may have changed since you last checked it.
• Network congestion may prevent the web page appearing quickly. Wait for a
while.
The IP address and Subnet Mask of the PC and ICA-650 must be in the same
class of the private IP address on the LAN.
• Make sure the http port used by the ICA-650, default=80, is forward to the ICA-
650’s private IP address.
• The port number assigned in your ICA-650 might not be available via Internet.
Check your ISP for available port.
• The proxy server may prevent you from connecting directly to ICA-650, set up
not to use the proxy server.
• Confirm that Default Gateway address is correct.
• The router needs Port Forwarding feature. Refer to your router's manual for
details.
• Packet Filtering of the router may prohibit access from an external network.
Refer to your router's manual for details.
• Access ICA-650 from the Internet with the global IP address of the router and
port number of ICA-650.
• Some routers reject the global IP address to access ICA-650 on the same
LAN. Access with the private IP address and correct port number of ICA-650.
• When you use DDNS, you need to set Default Gateway and DNS server
address.
• If it’s not working after above procedure, reset ICA-650 to default setting and
installed it again.
• If the problem is not solved, the ICA-650 might be faulty. Contact your dealer
for further help.
Q: Image or video does not appear in the main page
A: ‧ The first time the PC connects to ICA-650, a pop-up Security Warning
window will appear to download ActiveX Controls. When using Windows NT,
Windows 2000 or Windows XP, log on with an appropriate account that is
authorized to install applications.• Network congestion may prevent the Image
screen from appearing quickly. You may choose lower resolution to reduce
the required bandwidth.
Q: Check the ICA-650’s ActiveX is installed on your computer
A: Go to C:\Windows\Downloaded Program Files and check to see if there is an
entry for the file “WebWatch Class”. The status column should show
“Installed”. If the file is not listed, make sure your Security Settings in Internet

correctly. Check your Internet Explorer security settings and then close and
restart Internet Explorer. Try to browse and log in again.
Q: Check the ICA-650’s ActiveX is installed on your computer
A: Internet Explorer displays the following message: “Your current security
settings prohibit downloading ActiveX controls”.
Setup the IE security
settings or configure the individual settings to allow downloading and scripting of
unsigned ActiveX controls.
Q: The ICA-650 works in local network, but not accessible from remote
network
A: This might be caused from the firewall protection. Check the Internet firewall
with your system or network administrator. The firewall may need to have
some settings changed in order for the ICA-650 to be accessible outside your
LAN.• Make sure that the ICA-650 isn’t conflicting with any other web server
running on your LAN.• Check the configuration of the router settings allow the
ICA-650 to be accessed outside your local LAN.
Q: There are unreadable characters displayed in machine configuration
pages
A: Use the operating system of the selected language. Set the Encoding or the
Character Set of the selected language on the Internet Explorer.
Q: Frame rate is slower than the setting
A: • The traffic of the network and the object of the image affect the frame rate.
The network congestion causes frame rate slower than the setting. • When more
than one client were viewing, the frame rate becomes slower. • Ethernet
switching hub can smooth the frame rate especially in viewing on the Multi-
Camera screen.
Q: Blank screen or very slow video when audio is enabled
A:Your connection to the ICA-650 does not have enough bandwidth to support a
higher frame rate for the streamed image size. Try reducing the video streaming
size to 176x144 or 320x240 and/or disabling audio.• Audio will consume 32 to
64 kbps. Disable audio to improve video. Your Internet connection may not have
enough bandwidth to support streaming audio from the ICA-650.
Q: Image Transfer on e-mail or FTP does not work
A: ‧ Default Gateway and DNS server address should be set up correctly. • If
FTP does not work properly, ask your ISP or network administrator about the
transferring mode of FTP server.
Q: The focus on the camera is fuzzy.
A: ‧ The lens is dirty or dust is attached. Fingerprints, dust, stain, etc. on the lens
can degrade the performance camera. Clean the lens with lens cleaner.
• Manual focusing may be setup on the external camera to prevent this.
• Blurred images may have been registered when registering or modifying the
preset button or home position button. Adjust the focus in manual focusing
again
• The image may be out of focus, if the object is too near, or depending on the
zoom position. Move the object off ICA-650, or adjust the zoom position.
• Some objects are difficult to focus on by the camera. When the objects are still
out of focus, adjust the focus using manual focusing, or change the objects
using Pan/Tilt operation.
Q: The color of the image is poor or strange
A:
• To insure the images you are viewing are the best they can be, set the Display
property setting (color quality) to 16bit at least and 24 bit or higher if possible
within your computer.
•The configuration on the ICA-650 image display is incorrect. You need to adjust
the image related parameters such as brightness, contrast, hue and saturation
properly.

Appendix C
Bandwidth Calculation
Appendix C: Bandwidth Calculation
The frame rate of video transmitted from the ICA-650 depends on connection
bandwidth between client and server and quality setting of server. Here is a guideline
to help you roughly estimate the bandwidth requirements form your ICA-650.
Image bandwidth is approximately equal to the average frame rate in frames per
second multiplied by the average frame data size in kilobits. Frame data size, or the
number of bits comprising a single video frame varies a great deal from depending on
scene complexity, lighting conditions, camera noise, etc. The table shown below is
reference figures. Actual results generated by the ICA-650 may be varying.
Image Resolution
176 x 144 (QCIF)
320 x 240 (QVGA)
352 x 288 (CIF)
Average range of Data Sizes
20 – 40k bit
56– 92k bit
64 – 112k bit
640 x 480 (VGA)
160 – 320k bit
For example, streaming 2 fps of 320 x 240 video requires 112 to 184 kbps (kilobits per
second). Therefore, with a 128K upload connection; you will typically see 3 to 6
frames per second with 176 x 144 resolution and 1 to 2 frames per second with 320 x
240 resolution without audio stream.
Audio streaming also takes bandwidth around 32 kbps to
64kbps. Most ADSL/Cable modem upload speeds may not
ÍNote
even reach up to 128 kbps. Thus, you may not be able to
receive any video while streaming audio on a 128 kbps
or lower connection. Even though the upload speed is
more than 128kbps, for optimal video performance,
disabling audio streaming will get better video
performance.
