3.0 INSTALLATION
For initial setup, you need to connect the Y‐cam directly to your router, switch or computer via a network cable. You
cannot connect wirelessly to the camera without first setting it up via a network cable.
You should connect the Y‐cam in to your internet router (normally supplied by your broadband provider), a switch box
or hub (that is connected to your computers network) or directly to your computer (gives limited viewing options, so this
is not recommended).
3.1 Connecting your Y‐cam into a Router/Switch
Using the standard Ethernet network cable, plug this in to the network connection socket on the Y‐cam at one end, and
plug the other end in to a spare port on your router/switch.
Using the Power Adaptor (supplied), plug one end in to the Power Connection socket on the Y‐cam. Plug the other end
in to an electrical socket and turn the power on.
The Connectivity Status indicator on the front of the camera will light up. Your router/switch will then begin to
communicate with the camera.
You can now proceed to the Software Installation section.
