Connects to a PC or a network via a hub with a 10 BASE-T/100 BASE-  
TX cable attached RJ-45 connector.  
Note:  
Power over Ethernet (PoE) is a technology that integrates power into  
a standard LAN infrastructure. It enables power to be provided to the  
network device, such as a network camera, using the same cable as  
that used for network connection. It eliminates the need for power  
outlets at the device locations and enables easier application of  
uninterruptible power supplies (UPS).

RTP stream  
RTP (Real-time Transport Protocol) is an internet protocol that allows  
programs to manage the real-time transmission of multimedia data, via  
unicast or multicast.  
40  
Master / Slave  
RTP unicast: When enabled the transmission of the data to the  
specified equipment happens on a network specifying a single  
address.  
RTP multicast: When enabled it reduces the transmission load on  
the camera by making the computer of the same segment network  
receive the same transmission data. When multicast option is checked  
then select Video Port number, Audio Port number and Data port  
number.  
-
-
-
-
Video RTP port: Specify the video transmission port number used  
for the multicast streaming. It is initially set to 8 888 and you can  
edit this between 1 025 and 65 534.  
Audio RTP port: Specify the audio port number used for the  
multicast streaming. It is initially set to 7 777 and you can edit this  
between 1 025 and 65 534.  
Data RTP port: Specify the VA data port number used for the  
multicast streaming. It is initially set to 6 666 and you can edit this  
between 1 025 and 65 534.  
IP address: Set the IP address for RTP multicast.  
Note:  
Each stream using multicast needs its own a pair of multicast IP  
address and port numbers to avoid address conflict.  
Save: Click this button to confirm the settings.

to be specified in the user list with the appropriate access rights. The IP  
list is to control the access permission of clients by checking the client IP  
address.

Troubleshooting  
This section provides useful information to help you to resolve any  
difficulty you might have with your LG IP device. Fault symptoms, possible  
causes and remedial actions are provided here.  
IP Setting problems  
ARP/Ping: Disconnect and reconnect the power to the network  
camera. The device should get the IP within 2 minutes.  
Ping your camera: Open the command prompt on your computer,  
type ping with the IP address of the network device. The reply  
obtained by this command provides explanation for the cause of the  
problem.  
1. bytes = 32 time = 2 ms indicates that the IP address is already  
used and cannot reuse the same. A new IP address needs to be  
obtained.  
2. Destination host unreachable: indicates that the network device  
and your computer do not fall in the same subnet hence needs  
to get a new IP address. Contact the system administrator for the  
required help.  
3. Request timed out: Indicates that the IP is free as it is not used by  
anyone and the network device can obtain this.  
IP Conflicts: The other device may use th same IP address with the  
LG IP device. ReferPing your camerato check the conflict and then  
contact the system administrator for the required help.  
53  
Cannot access the camera from browser:  
Reconnect the network camera with power and check the ping  
operation to know if the IP is used by others.  
Disable the proxy setting in the Browser if you are using a proxy server.  
Check for proper cabling and network connections, try to ping after  
verifying the connectivity.  
Sometimes when HTTPS is enabled, we would be checking the URL  
with http, in this case manually change the URL to the http/https  
accordingly.  
Verify the DNS and Gateway settings if the IP address is assigned  
statically to the network device.  
When the web page loading is failed or very slow, Check the  
streaming configuration. Use H.264 codec and change frame rate,  
stream quality, resolution setting.  
If you have error at web client live view page, close browser, delete  
below directory and re-connect the camera.  
ex)C:\Documents and Settings\[UserID]\WebClient.  
Accessing camera external to the local network  
Firewall Protection: Check for the internet firewall with the system  
administrator, either he has to do port forwarding or modify the DMZ  
function on the router.  
Default router needed: Check if you need configure the router  
settings.  
Sporadic network performance  
Network Switches or hubs used may be of the lower configuration  
and the load on this may not meet the required conditions of our  
network camera.  
54  
Check for the RJ45 cables that are used for the network connectivity.  
If POE is used check if the power is got by the network camera when  
connected to it.  
Login Password lost  
Reset the camera by pressing the Reset button for more than 3  
seconds to restore default settings.  
After the factory settings login using the default username and  
password.  
Video Streaming problems  
If the video streaming does not start on the Web browser, install the  
LG Web Client ActiveX program on your computer following the  
instructions on the Web browser.  
When Windows IE browsers are used always take care to allow pop  
ups, check this option before we run the web client.  
Check the quality of image by referring the video settings as  
described in the manual.  
Sometimes there would be intermittent or very slow video streaming,  
this may be because of the higher resolution and frame rate that are  
set for the video.  
The video streaming may appear poor at times, this may be because  
of the network traffic ,too many devices connected to the switch or  
hub, enabling motion detection to each of the video streams and  
because of other programs running on your computer.  
If the images appear to be blurred adjust the focus of the network  
camera to get a clear image.  
If video images appear white and black adjust the settings in the OSD  
to get back the colorful image.  
55  
Select the Night mode if the network camera is connected at a place  
where surrounding light is less or dark.  
If we obtain lower frame rate than set we need to check from the  
system administrator for sufficient bandwidth available or reduce the  
number of applications running on the client computer.  
If the client PC’s are unable to access the multicast stream, check with  
the system administrator for the use of a valid multicast address or  
check if the router is supporting multicasting.  
If the images appear to have white of gray stripes on it, upgrade the  
Video graphics driver on the client PC to the latest version.  
Video images may be noisy if you are using the camera in a very low  
light environment or the bit rate/quality is set to very low values.  
Provide higher values for quality and support the surrounding  
environment with enough light.  
For all further support please contact the supplier or forums or websites.
