network.

To launch the VB Initial Setting Tool, double-click the

[VB Initial Setting Tool v5.0.1] icon on the desktop or

select [Start] menu > [All Programs] > [WebView

The Tool will automatically detect the camera

connected to the network and display the camera's

MAC address, IP address and model name.

The MAC address can be found on the label on the

bottom of the camera (Installation Guide, “Part

cameras that are behind a router.

To use a setting other than the default gateway

setting, clear the [Enter a default gateway address]

checkbox.

After settings are complete, click [OK].

Setup progress is shown in the window.

in the [IPv4] area (P. 4-5).
