Manage / view yourcamera via your PC

The following instructions assume you have already configured your camera’s network/​Wi-Fi settings correctly and the PC you are trying to connect from is on the same network (subnet) as your camera.

If your computer is on the same network as your PT10QRECO, you will not have to configure any port forwarding but you will have to determine the IP address of your camera; this is easily done using the supplied LSearch software found on the supplied CD.

  1. Connect your camera to your router using the supplied Ethernet cable
  2. Power up the camera and wait for the self-test to finish
  3. Load the "LSearch_en.exe" application and click "Search"
    • If you do not find your camera, ensure the correctnetwork adapter has been selected in the drop-down box under"Local PC Information"
    • Alternatively check that your router has DHCP enabled
  4. Select your camera from the device list
  5. To view/​manage your camera from your web-browser, click the "Browse" button
    • You will be required to install QuickTime Player to view your camera in your browser

There is a wide range of settings available to you via the web-UI including the camera WiFi network setup, and Automatic Dynamic DNS host settings. You can access the camera’s settings via the settings button while viewing your camera in your browser.

To view your camera on a computer that is outside of yourLAN (Local Area Network), you will have to setup Port Forwarding on your router connected to the internet. This isrouter dependant and we cannot support this process. Please seek advice from your router manual or manufacturer for information on this process.

If setting up Port Forwarding, the port you will require forwarded will be "Http Port" listed under "Device Information" in the LSearch software. If you have multiple cameras you may wish to manually set the port for each camera to be unique. To change the Http Port of a camera:

  1. Connect your camera to your router using the supplied Ethernet cable
  2. Power up the camera and wait for the self-test to finish
  3. Load the "LSearch_en.exe" application and click "Search"
  4. Select the camera you wish to change the port for
  5. Change the Http Port by typing it in, or clicking the up/​down buttons
  6. Enter your account details (default user: admin, default password: 123456)
  7. Click Update—your camera will now restart with the new settings applied (you may lose access if you had a browser window already open and old bookmarks/​links may needto be updated with the new port number)
