Installation Wizard
After you have successfully completed the hardware installation of the DCS-
5300 Internet Camera, it is necessary to install software to configure and operate
the camera. The first step is to install the Installation Wizard program from the
CD. Installation Wizard will allow you to configure the Internet Camera to your
network.
After the Installation Wizard software program is completed, you will have an
operating and controllable Internet Camera. From your Internet Explorer Web
browser you will be able to access the video and sound from the Internet camera.
The camera has a built-in Web server. This Web server will allow the camera to
access the Internet without being attached to a computer and permits users to
view the video and audio remotely.
After running the Installation Wizard, you will be able to operate the DCS-
5300 and view the camera remotely through Internet Explorer 6.x and above.
However, it is necessary to install the IP surveillance software from the enclosed
CD to create a truly powerful surveillance system. The following section will
show in detail the launching of the Installation Wizard and installation of the IP
surveillance software.

DCS-5300 installation menu will start up automatically from the CD. If the CD
does not start up automatically, (this function may be disabled in the Windows
operating system), access the CD from Windows and click on the autorun.exe
program to access the installation menu shown below:
