INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the SOHO Internet Camera, a camera
device that can be connected directly to an Ethernet or Fast
Ethernet network. Compared to the conventional PC Camera, the
Internet Camera features a built-in CPU and web-based solutions
that can provide a cost-effective solution to transmit real-time
high-quality video images and sounds for monitoring. The
Internet Camera can be managed remotely, accessed and
controlled from any PC/Notebook over the Intranet or Internet via
a web browser. The simple installation procedures and web-
based interface allow you to integrate it into your network easily.
With comprehensive applications supported, the Internet Camera
is your best solution for remote monitor, high quality, and high
performance video images.

Features and Benefits
Simple To Use
The Internet Camera is a standalone system with built-in CPU
requiring no special hardware or software such as PC frame
grabber cards. The Internet Camera supports both ActiveX mode
(for Internet Explorer users) and Java mode (for Internet Explorer
and Netscape Navigator users). Therefore, all that is required is a
web browser software such as Internet Explorer 5.0 or above or
Netscape 6.0 or above. Just plug and view the picture from your
Internet Camera with a valid IP Address.
Support Variety of Platforms
The Internet Camera supports TCP/IP networking, SMTP e-mail,
HTTP and other Internet related protocols, and can be utilized in
a mixed operating system environment such as Windows, Unix,
and Mac. It can be integrated easily into other www/Intranet
applications.
Web Configuration
Applying a standard web browser, the administrator can configure
and manage the Internet Camera directly from its own web page
via the Intranet or Internet. Up to 64 users name and password
are permitted with privilege setting controlled by the
administrator.

Remote Utility
The powerful IPView SE application assigns the administrator
with a pre-defined user ID and password, allowing the
administrator to modify the Internet Camera settings from the
remote site via Intranet or Internet. When new firmware is
available, you can also upgrade remotely over the network for
added convenience. Users are also allowed to monitor the image,
and take snapshots.
Broad Range of Applications
With today’s high-speed Internet services, the Internet Camera
can provide the ideal solution for live video images over the
Intranet and Internet for remote monitoring. The Internet Camera
allows remote access from a web browser for live image viewing
and allows administrator to manage and control the Internet
Camera anywhere and any time in the world. Apply the Internet
Camera to monitor various objects and places such as homes,
offices, banks, hospitals, child-care centers, amusement parks and
other varieties of industrial and public monitoring. The Internet
Camera can also be used for intruder detection; in addition, it can
capture still images for archiving and many more applications.
