4. Configuring your Camera  
4-1 Preparation before IP Assignment:  
Always consult your network administrator before assigning an IP address from your server.  
Make sure the NETCOMM NS4540 is powered on and correctly connected to the network.  
Obtain an IP address not used yet from your network administrator.  
MAC Address: Each NETCOMM NS4540 has a unique Ethernet address (MAC address)  
shown on the bottom of the NETCOMM NS4540 as the serial number (S/N) with 12 digits  
(e.g. 000429-XXXXXX).  
4-2 Assign IP Address by ARP Command  
Note before IP assignment:  
Make sure the NETCOMM NS4540 is powered on and connected to the network correctly.  
Obtain a unique IP address from your network administrator.  
Each NETCOMM NS4540 has a unique Ethernet address (MAC address), which is  
recorded as a 12 digit serial number labeled at the base of NETCOMM NS4540 (e.g.  
000429xxxxxx).  
Following examples use a PC with an IP address 192.168.0.1, the NETCOMM NS4540 will  
be given an IPaddress 192.168.0.200 whose MAC address is 000429000150. Always  
consult your network administrator before assigning an IP address.  
The IP address assigned to the NETCOMM NS4540 shall be the same IP domain (pre-  
sented as same subnet mask) as the PC IP address. In our case, a PC IP address is  
192.168.0.1 and the NETCOMM NS4540 is 192.168.0.200, so the subnet mask shall be  
255.255.255.0. If a PC subnet mask is 255.255.255.128 or higher, then the domain can't  
cover 192.168.0.200, so the settings will not take effective.  
For speedy install and easy setting of the IPAddress, NETCOMM Limited provides an IP  
Installer Wizard for you. Please install the application and see the user's manual for  
detailed description and usage.  
1. In Windows, open DOS window.  
Enter DOS by <Start?Program?MS-DOS Prompt>  
2. Ensure the IP address assigned to NETCOMM NS4540 is not occupied by other Hosts.  
In DOS window, entering <ping 192.168.0.200> shall get "time out" message

6-2 Network Setting  
6-2-1 Network General Settings  
IPAddress: NETCOMM NS4540 IP address  
Subnet Mask: Subnet mask of your LAN. Note that the IP Address above and Gateway IP  
Address below should be in the same subnet.  
DNS IPAddress: Domain name server information is to allow NETCOMM NS4540 to  
contact an external server with mnemonic domain name (e.g. ftp.NETCOMM.com) instead of  
numeric IP address (e.g. 168.95.1.1).  
Gateway IPAddress: NetComm NS4540 traffic to Internet should go through Gateway, if no  
setting is present, only Intranet (LAN) can be accessed.  
HTTP Connection Port: Specify the HTTP web server listen port for client (browser)  
connection. Default uses port 80 (HTTP standard port), valid range from 0~65535.  
Note:  
Before changing the listen port, user must add a port directive ":" in browser  
192.168.0.200 and port with 8000).  
These features enable the user to use NETCOMM NS4540 behind a NAT firewall or IP Sharing  
device which could access up to 65536 NETCOMM NS4540 with one IPAddress.  
The factory default won't change the IPAddress and Port setting. Once forgetting the specified  
port of your NETCOMM NS4540, you must use ARP & Ping setting to restore the port setting  
back to 80.

6-2-2 SMTP Settings  
Sender's Email Address: Your E-mail address.  
SMTP Server Address: SMTP server IP address.  
Authentication: If the SMTP Server has enabled authentication function. You have to fill in  
the User Name and Password to pass through the authentication.  
6-2-3 DHCP Settings  
DHCP Settings: If there is a DHCP server installed on your LAN, you can enable DHCP to  
automatically obtain network settings such as IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, and  
DNS servers. Because the assigned IP address can be dynamically changed every time it  
obtains an address from the DHCP server, we provide a method called IP Notification to notify  
users which IP address has been acquired.  
IP Notification by FTP: If an FTP server is installed on your network, you can enable this  
option to obtain the newly assigned IP address of your NETCOMM NS4540. A HTML file  
named NewIP_xxxxxx.htm will appear under the upload path for you to link to NETCOMM  
NS4540, where xxxxxx is the last six digits of the serial number.  
FTP Host Name: FTP server address  
Login Name: Name of your FTP account

Upload Path: Path to put the file.  
IP Notification by E-mail: With this option enabled, your NETCOMM NS4540 will send E-  
mail to you as soon as it obtains the IP address from the DHCP server.  
Recipient: Your E-mail address.  
Message subject: Subject of this E-mail.  
6-2-4 DDNS Setting  
The DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name Service) is used when users want to access NETCOMM  
behind a Dial-up ADSL or IP sharing device, which does not have fix IP address, then it's  
impossible to reach NETCOMM NS4540 from Internet.  
The mechanism of DDNS service is described as below:  
When NETCOMM NS4540 enables the DDNS service, it will "register" to NETCOMM  
DDNS server with its information, such as server name to access, router virtual port number  
and updated frequency, etc.  
Then NETCOMM NS4540 automatically "updates" to NETCOMM DDNS server by a fix  
frequency, so even when an IP address is changed by the Internet Service Proivder (ISP), the  
NETCOMM DDNS server still will obtain and update the internal database. Then, once users  
access from Internet with its register name, e.g. if registering with server name "demo" to  
DDNS server "ddns.NetComm .com", NETCOMM NS4540 can be accessed by http://  
demo.ddns.NetComm .com.  
Device Name: Specify server name. This name setting also used by NETCOMM DDNS  
service to recognize each server.  
Recipient: Your E-mail address.  
Message subject: Subject of this E-mail.  
e.g. if configure name as "company.user" to DDNS address "ddns.NetComm .com", then this  
registering the NETCOMM DDNS server.

Note:  
The NETCOMM DDNS service is proprietary, which only works with NETCOMM  
DDNS server and NETCOMM brands o f products.  
Dynamic DNS Activate: Click on to activate NETCOMM DDNS service.  
Dynamic DNS Address: Specify address of NETCOMM DDNS server, and the default is  
"ddns.NetComm .com"  
Dynamic DNS Port: Specify NETCOMM DDNS server listen port, and the default is "80"  
Router Incoming Port: Specify your router listen port for NETCOMM DDNS server to  
redirect. The router may configure the different port for incoming (Internet request) and  
outgoing (Intranet request), e.g. it may configure to redirect Internet HTTP (port 80) request to  
Intranet port 8000, then, in this case, we must configure the "Router Incoming Port" to 80, and  
inside the NETCOMM NS4540 Network settings should set HTTP port with 8000.  
Update Time: Specify the NETCOMM NS4540 updated frequency in seconds, and the  
default is 600 (10 minutes), this is interval that NETCOMM NS4540 will automatically send an  
updated packet to NETCOMM DDNS server.  
DDNS message: Return messages from remote NETCOMM DDNS server, and some hints  
may help to diagnostic the reason if register fails.  
DDNS addr. CGI fail: It means that NETCOMM NS4540 can't communicate with Internet  
world. Make sure your Network Configuration has correct subnet mask and default  
gateway, and DNS1 setting is correct and reachable.  
Already registered: Another user had registered this name; please change your register  
name by changing "Server Name".  
Example: To setup a NETCOMM NS4540 (IP address 192.168.0.200) behind a dialup ADSL  
The procedure is as below:  
Configure the ADSL router with PPPoE enable; LAN IP, 192.168.0.254; and subnet mask,  
255.255.255.0.  
Assign theADSL router's virtual server with service port 80 to server IP 192.168.0.200  
Configure NETCOMM NS4540 network configuration with IP address 192.168.0.200;  
subnet 255.255.255.0; DNS1 with valid DNS address such as 168.95.192.1 or 168.95.1.1;  
gateway IP address with 192.168.0.254 (router's IP); HTTP port with port 80.  
Configure server name.  
Configure DDNS with Activate; Address "ddns.NetComm .com"; DDNS with port 80;  
Router Incoming port 80; and update time with 600 (10 minutes). Finally, clicks submit.  
Consequentially, it will show NETCOMM NS4540's home page.  
Click "Save Changes" button if needed for existing data changed in NETCOMM NS4540  
before power off.

6-5-2 Event Edit  
Application developers wish to have different levels of customization within their own  
applications. They may build this through the event manager, the event system provides  
several trigger sources and action types which allow administrators to record the emergency  
images, such as Motion detection, IO control, FTP or EMAIL to outside world.  
It's easy to process --- just fill and submit a simple form.  
The NETCOMM NS4540's event manager provides event control through programmable  
Event Scripts which are the combination of several events. Each event works simultaneously.  
If one of the trigger conditions in the event script is satisfied, then corresponding action will  
start to execute accordingly. A comprehensive set of "trigger conditions" and "action com-  
mands" allowed to fit in varies of applications without limitation.  
Note:  
The programmable event script has been supported since firmware version 2.0.  
All models of the NETCOMM Internet Video Server, Network Camera and the  
Dome Camera are supported.  
To start the event manager, simply click Event icon, then event frame will pop up as below:  
Upper edit window, middle status box, lower message window, and button control icons  
mainly separate the event frame.  
There are two ways to enter the event script. One is to use "Script Wizard" which just follows  
the procedure to fill up some items. And, it will generate and append new script code to edit  
window. The other one is to edit the form manually, which is for experienced users that want  
to deeply control the functionalities of event operation. Please refer to "Event Script Program-  
mers Guide" for full details syntax and options description.  
Event Script Edit: Text window to enter event script manually.  
Event Status: Indicate the event status, "Stop Now" or "Start Now".  
Message: A window to show the results when below command icon pressed --- normally will  
show "OK", "Parsing", "Fail", Or "Err String" which indicates the syntax error of parsing, and  
starts from the error position in the script.

Appendix B - Upgrading the Software  
NETCOMM NS4540 software is contained in Flash Memory, a silicon chip allows it to be  
erased and re-written. It provides an easy way to update the software without changing any  
parts; just simply load the newest software from the network.  
The following procedures are to update the software:  
Check software version  
show you the software version.  
Example:  
version--" Software Version=1.11 Revision 0905.1641 ", which indicates the currently software  
version is 1.11.  
Obtain the software (flash.bin)  
The latest version of the NETCOMM NS4540 software is free of charge from NETCOMM or  
your local distributor.  
Upgrade procedure via FTP  
1. Download the newest software and unzip it into your local Driver, for example "C:\temp".  
Then, confirm the "flash.bin" file exists in this directory.  
2. Remove all event settings and Reset the NETCOMM NS4540:  
You have two ways to remove the event scripts. One is to choose "Clear" and to use  
"Save" icon on "Event Script Edit" page to set the event script to empty. The other is to  
click the "Load Default" icon in Server / System page to reset all settings; however, it will  
not only delete events, but also all other settings. Then click the "Reboot System" to restart  
the NETCOMM NS4540 or enter CGI command URL  
Caution: You must remove all events and reboot the NETCOMM NS4540 before doing the  
following procedures; otherwise, some occasional internal conflicts may endanger the  
Flash devices.  
3. Start the FTP session and log in to the NETCOMM NS4540  
For example, in our case for Windows98:  
Enter DOS by "start->Program->MS-DOS Prompt"  
Change to the directory where the latest flash.bin exist.  
Start ftp session by enter "ftp <NETCOMM NS4540 IPAddress>  
Enter "root" as USERNAME, "pass" as PASSWORD if no user in User List record. In case  
any user list exists, you will have to use your administrator's USERNAME and PASS-  
WORD to login  
4. Set FTP to binary mode using the command "bin".  
In FTP session window, Enter "bin"

5. Upload the software into NETCOMM NS4540 by FTP "put" command.  
In FTP session window, enter "put flash.bin"  
In FTP session window, enter "bye" to quit FTP session.  
6. FTP session may freeze for around 1 minute to transfer and automatically upgrade the  
software. During that time, ping the NETCOMM NS4540 until get a constant reply, which  
means system had completed upgrading and rebooting, then open the browser to verify  
the software version been updated.  
Note:  
If FTP session quits immediately after being issued with a command, you should  
continue pinging the NETCOMM NS4540 instantly. If NETCOMM NS4540 replies  
to the ping command right after pinging, it means NETCOMM NS4540 may not  
enter the self-programming stage to verify the software version. If not updated,  
then you should reboot NETCOMM NS4540 and back to step 3 to try again

Appendix C - Update custom web pages  
NETCOMM NS4540 has a built-in web server, so the web contents are contained in Flash  
Memory, the same as software parts, allowing erasure and re-write. It provides an easy way to  
update the web pages --- just simply load and issue command from network (FTP and Telnet).  
Caution: The update of content page is very sensitive to system operation; therefore,  
incorrect operation may cause system fail to response to any request. The  
following operations provided here are only for experienced system integrators.  
Remember to always consult to your distributor or dealer in advance to update  
the content.  
The following procedures are to update the web page:  
1) Clean up system  
Before updating the pages, make the NETCOMM NS4540 back to factory default stage ---  
click "Load Default" button, click "Save Changes" button, and then click "Reboot System"  
button in configuration page. Keep the NETCOMM NS4540 in an idle state, which stops all  
video requests from other station.  
2) Download complete web pages  
For backup purpose, we should download the complete built-in contents before updating. The  
pages layout is described as below:  
1. 3.0.0/WWW: Main video pages including static HTML pages and JAVA applets.  
2. 3.0.0/WWW/images:All graphical files.  
3. 3.0.0/WWW/lang1:All HTML pages for user defined language 1.  
4. 3.0.0/WWW/lang2:All HTML pages for user defined language 2.  
5. 3.0.0/Sys: Video bitmap font file (Time Stamp and Text Bitmap)  
6. 3.0.0/public: Internal message files.  
Note:  
When you login to the system, the default root directory is 3.0.0/. Do not change  
any file in 3.0.0/Sys, and 3.0.0/public, because these files are only used  
internally.  
For convenience, some FTP utilities (e.g. CuteFTP, WSFTP) may be useful to download the  
complete pages.  
3) Upload custom web pages  
You can use FTP utilities to upload the updated/added contents to their original directory. For  
example, if you wish to replace the NETCOMM banner logo (logo.jpg) with your custom  
made image. First, prepare your own image, and then upload to 3.0.0/WWW/images.  
Note:  
Any file upload to NETCOMM NS4540 should be set to "binary" mode in FTP  
utility; otherwise, the file may be corrupted in NETCOMM NS4540.

4) Verify updated contents  
After uploading the custom pages, open browser to verify the correctness of contents. If not  
correct, modify the pages and return to previous step to upload again.  
5) Save the changes to flash  
Telnet to the NETCOMM NS4540. And run command "Up -w" to write the complete web  
pages into flash. The detailed procedures are list as below,  
1. Open DOS window  
2. Enter "telnet <IPAddress of NETCOMM NS4540 >"  
3. Enter "root" and "pass" as username and password  
4. Enter "Up -w" to start the web content update program. The command is case sensitive.  
Don't enter the wrong case or you'll get the command not find error message. After  
processing about 30 seconds, the NETCOMM NS4540 will restart automatically and  
complete the web content update. Now you can open the browser to see the new web  
content.  
Note:  
The limitation of overall size of content pages is around 700K Bytes. Any file  
added/updated plus original downloaded file (~550K Bytes) should not exceed  
this size; otherwise, some files will be truncated or corrupted. If the corruption  
of any page happens, you will have to reload the original binary (see Appendix  
A - Upgrading the Software) in order to recover the corruption.  
For example, the NETCOMM NS4540 IP address is 192.168.0.200, then  
C:\temp>telnet 192.168.0.200 C:\temp> Telnet session  
Open Telnet session Login: root Password:  
Enter "pass" as default Welcome to VidSvr on Telnet ... IVS> Up -w Upgrade WWW  
Pages...  
Frozen here, close and open browser After 30 seconds to verify the changes.

Appendix D - Emergency Factory Default  
In certain circumstance, to restore the server to initial factory default state may be necessary,  
normally processed through web page (Miscellaneous Operation). If the user can't get into web  
page (e.g. Missing of Username and Password information), then he/she could use Emergency

Note:  
When status LED starts to blink during power up, if not to set GPIO Input 4 back  
to open within 3 seconds, server will continue the boot sequence and doesn't  
retrieve the factory default.
