To set up your camera hardware, follow each of the following steps carefully to
ensure optimum camera operation:
Beware: If your camera does not include several stickers, such as MAC address
and QC sticker, it could be a fake IPCAM and will not work with original
firmware or be able to be serviced by our after sales service. Make sure it has
the MAC address and serial number.
1. Install WI-FI antenna
2. Plug power adaptor into camera
3. Connect network cable into both camera and into router for initial set-up
(initial set-up is not over WiFi; please keep network cable inserted during
initial set-up. Later,, when you have established your camera on your wireless
network, the hard wire from the camera to the router may be removed, see
section 3.4. It should, however, remain connected during initial setup.)
4. Note: it takes approximately 30 seconds for camera to boot; once this is done,
find the “IP address” in

PRE-INSTALLATION PRECAUTIONS:
3.You will discover that several of the IP cameras installed on the LAN do not
share the same subnet with the monitoring PC.This will be indicated by a
prompt that will tell you: Subnet does not match, double click to change.
Left click to choose the prompt and then right click to set the static IP address of
the camera to the same subnet as your PC over LAN. (see figure 2.3)
NOTE: If the subnet does not match, remember you can choose “Obtain IP from
DHCP Server”.The default of the camera is set to “Obtain IP from DHCP Server
“which means it will automatically get a dynamic IP for you (see figure 2.2)
1. Use only the power adaptor that comes with the product. DO NOT attempt to
substitute it with any other as other adaptors may cause damage to your unit.
2. Make sure the camera unit is mounted in an indoor environment where rain
or other forms of moisture cannot get into it.
3. DO not touch or re-adjust the lens in any way.The focal point of the camera
was pre-set at the factory. If you turn the lens you may interfere with the way
the quality of the images are received.
4. DO not force the Pan/TIlt by hand
5. For any firmware upgrades or connection to any other external devices,
please read all instructions within the installation CD.
SIX OPTIONS ARE AVAILABLE VIATHE IP CAMERATOOL
Choose the IP Camera list and right click on your mouse for the following
options will appear in a window.

Note:The software is designed to automatically search for IP Camera servers
over the LAN. One of the following 3 scenarios will present itself:
1. After about 1 minute, if the software does not find an appropriate IP camera
server on the LAN, it will indicate “No IP server found” and automatically shut
down the program.
2. After about a minute, the software will detect all the cameras on the LAN and
each camera will be listed on your computer screen as shown in figure 1.9. If
you’re installing your first camera, it will naturally be the only one listed.

2.1.1.1 Basic Properties
Under Basic Properties you will find three options. 1) Device ID 2)System
Firmware Version 3) Web UI version (see figure 2.1)
Figure 2.2
In this Window you can configure your network parameter. If you click in the
window requesting an IP from the DHCP server, your camera will be a dynamic
IP (to do this, your router must have a DHCP function and it must be on)
Figure 2.1
Device ID.This is the same ID as the one found on the sticker on the bottom
of your camera. It is called the MAC ID. If there are many IP Cameras on your
device list, you can cross check which camera is which by matching the sticker
numbers of each camera with the ID numbers on the list. If, however, no ID
number is shown on the IP Camera tool, it might be that it is being blocked
by your firewall. Shut Firewall to allow access to your computer or as ID as a
trusted site.
Note: There are two reference numbers. One is the Device MAC ID, the other is
the WI-FI MAC ID, this too is on the sticker at the bottom of the camera. If this
sticker is ever lost, you can recapture it by logging on to your host router and
check the status, the numbers will be found there listed as the IP Camera WI-FI
MAC ID.
IP Address. Fill in the IP address assigned and make sure it has the same
subnet as your gateway, your computer and your router. (the first three sets of
numbers should be the same)
Subnet Mask. The default subnet mask for your equipment is 255.255.255.0
Gateway. Make sure the subnet number correspond to your PC’s IO address.
DNS Server. Should be set with the same subnet numbers as the gateway.
Note:You can get subnet mask, gateway and DNS from your Router. Often the
DNS is optional.
HTTP port. Default port number is 80 but you should plug in the port number
assigned for your equipment (ie, 81.801.8001 etc.)
Password: No password.
NOTE; If prompt tells you “subnet doesn’t match, double click to change,” reset
the IP address, subnet mask, gateway and DNS server numbers once again or
enable “Obtain IP from the DHCP server.

is usually whatismyipaddress.com.This address is how the world sees your
router’s identity, which means if you want to be able to access you camera from
anywhere but home, you will need to know this address.
The fourth step is to log into your wireless router.To do this, enter the IP
address of your router into your browser and then enter the username and
password when prompted. If you are unsure of your router’s name and
password, refer to your router manual or view a list of the most popular default
router IP addresses, usernames and passwords by Googling “Default Router
Passwords and IP Addresses” and you will get that info for almost all routers.
Go through the options on you router until you find the “Virtual Server” , “Port
Forwarding”, or “port Mapping” option. (Your router’s manual will explain this
as well). Once you’re able to access the Port Forwarding options for your router,
you will then need to set the Local/Private IP address to your camera’s local IP
address, set the inbound port to 8090 and the outbound port to 8090 (you can
change port numbers later). Make sure the type is either “Both” or “TCP. Save
the configuration. (See examples for a couple of routers on page 40, 41 & 42).
To see if you are set up properly, open a browser and enter your external
internet IP address into the address bar, Put a colon sign (:) then enter the port
number e.g. 192.168.1.10:8090.That should bring you to your camera’s login
screen.

3.1.3 Upgrade Device Firmware
3.1.2 Set Multi-Device on WAN using Port Forwarding.
Port Forwarding will allow you to view your camera live on the internet from
anywhere, using your PC, smart phone or tablet device.To do this, start by
making sure you have your router’s manual in hand in order to understand
some of the terms we are referring to. Wait a second, you probably have no
idea where it is, right? Don’t worry!To get and get the information you will need
to Push Forward to your wireless devices, simply google : (brand of your router)
manual, i.e. Belkin manual. Once you have this information handy, follow these
five steps:
Write down the local IP address of your camera..To find this, open IP Camera
Tools (Mac users open IP ScannerTool) and it will display the IP address of
192.168.1.10).
Log onto your camera and go to “Basic Network Settings” and change the

because it is a public port and can cause security problems. Port number 8090 is
generally not used and is therefore safe to use

If you wish to upgrade your camera, you must first upgrade the Firmware, then
upgrade Web UI (in that order). Click Browse to select the correct BIN file you
want, then click submit to upgrade.
NOTE: Before performing any upgrade from a browser, make sure the IP
Camera tool in your computer can locate the camera you wish to upgrade.
Also note that power must be on during the upgrade and it has to be in wired
mode. Upgrading freely without taking any of these precautions could do
damage to the camera.
Note: if you have more than one camera, the port numbers should ascend
accordingly, i.e. 8090, 8091, 8092 etc.)

Polaroid • FAQs
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS.
UPnP ALWAYS FAILS?
Sometimes your firewall or anti-virus software fails to allow the connection. It is
recommended you try port forwarding manually in your router.
DOES POLAROID IP CAMERA WORK ON MAC OS SYSTEMS AS WELL
AS MICROSOFT WINDOWS?
Yes, the system is designed to work with both operating systems.You will find
information in your CD folders concerning MAC systems, however, the set-up to
a MAC computer should pretty much be plug and play if you follow the prompts
as they come up.
WHY ISN’TTHE SHORTCUTTO IP CAMERATOOL APPEARING?
If you use Windows7 or Vista it may be necessary to check if you installed it
properly.You should be looking for an icon that takes you to C:/Windows/
System32/IPCamera.exe, please direct the installation to C://Windows/
SysWOW64/IPCamera.exe
IF I NEED ASSISTANCE WHERE CAN I GET IT?
If you encounter difficulties set-up or running your IP Security Camera outside
the instructions in this manual, we suggest you contact your reseller. If they
cannot resolve your issues , then please contact our technical support team at
877-836-1190 or at Polaroid, 2 BergenTurnpike, Ridgefield, New Jersey.
WHY CAN’T I CHANGETHE RECORD PATH?
Sometimes Windows7 or Vista will not allow you to change the record path.
To override this problem you must add camera as a trusted site. Go to IE
Browser, then toTool, then click on Internet Proper, then click on Security, then
click on trusted sites, then sites and then click on Add.YOU CAN ALSO RUN AS
AMINISTRATOR AND INPUT IP ADDRESS MANUALLY.
FORGOTTEN AMINSISTRATOR USERNAME AND/OR PASSWORD?
Press RESET BUTTON and hold for 15 seconds. After 15 seconds, the user
name and password will return to factory default which is username: admin,
password: No password. At this point you may add in a user name and
password of your choice.
CAN’T FIND MULTI-DEVICE SETTINGS AND RECORD ICON?
Remember that these functions are only available using ActiveX. If your running
your cameras on browsers such as Safari, Google Chrome or Firefox, these
functions are not available to you.
IFYOU’RETOLD SUBNET DOESN’T MATCH, DBCLICKTO CHANGE?
Once you click on the message, the settings box will appear. Click on the
“Obtain IP from DHCH server (fig 2.2). It should obtain the information and set
up automatically. If, however, it does not, go to the local area connection of
your computer to get proper subnet and gateway of your computer and then
change the camera numbers to these numbers exactly.
CAMERA STILL WON’T CONNECT WIRELESSLY?
If after you set wireless settings and disconnect cable to router, you still cannot
connect wirelessly, check that your settings are correct. See WIRELESS LAN
SETTINGS for details. Double click the SSID, go to the Encryption Share Key,
then Channel. Make sure they are all the same settings as your router. Note
that your Share key should not include special characters. Use only a word and
number are best. And make sure your MAC address filter is not on.
HOW DO I GETTHE IP ADDRESS CONFIGURATION?
To see if your computer and camera chare the same subnet, click My Computer,
then Control Panel, then Network & Dial Up Connections, then LAN, then
Attributes, then go to Internet Protocols (TCP/IP) and check the IP address
and the Subnet Mask. Make sure the numbers here and the numbers for your
camera coincide. Do this manually in the camera set-up box.
CAN’T SEE OTHER CAMERAS WHEN ACCESSING REMOTELY?
If you want to see all cameras in your system, you must make sure they are all
added into your multi-device settings using DDNS name and port number. Use
DDNS domain name in host check box, not camera’s LAN IP. See details in this
manual for Multi-Devices on WAN.
REASONS CAMERA CANNOT BE ACCESSED OVER INTERNET?
There could be several reasons: 1) ActiveX controller is not installed properly.
Review Figures 2.9 through 3.1 of this manual. 2)Your firewall or anti-virus
software is blocking the port. Change port number. See figure 3.2 for reference.
3) Port forwarding is incorrect (refer to figure 7.4 through 7.9 of this manual and
make sure the settings are correct.
REMOTE LOG IN ONLY BRINGS METO BLACK SCREEN OR CODE?
If you were able to access your remote login page, your DDNS settings are
correct. However, there may be internet speed problems especially if you are
access on WI-FI.
YOUR USING ACTOVEX BUT STILL GETTING NO PICTURE?
First make sure you’ve clicked on ActiveX properly
IP CAMERATOOL CAN’T FIND CAMERA’S IP?
First check all camera connections. Make sure the DHCP in your router is
enabled; do not enable MAC address filter. Make sure firewall and anti-virus
software is not blocking camera by setting it as a “trusted device” in your
firewall and anti-virus settings.
