Use the optional power adapter to connect to power.
Use the Power over Ethernet (PoE) function in which power is supplied over the
network cable.
3. You can now access the Web interface of the camera.
If the camera is installed in a LAN with DHCP server, use GV-IP Device Utility to look
up the camera’s dynamic IP address. See 2.1.1 Checking the Dynamic IP Address.
If the camera is installed in a LAN without DHCP server, the default IP address
192.168.0.10 is applied. To assign a different static IP address, see 2.1.2 Assigning
an IP Address.
Note: You must set your browser to allow ActiveX Control and perform a one-time
installation of the ActiveX component onto your computer upon your first login.
