Beautiful camera with night vision function

Scope of supply:
Included with the camera were:
* LAN cable for connecting the camera to a router
* AC adapter
* The WLAN antenna
* A bracket for installing the camera on the wall or ceiling
* Plugs and screws for mounting
* An installation CD
* The user

The camera is high-quality. They can be rotated via software by 360 ° and 90 ° can be pivoted ah above, or below, so you can monitor an entire room.

Features:
The camera has several nice features that make them very interesting for me.
The camera records at lighting in "normal" mode. In low light, it switches to infrared mode and can therefore in total darkness without any problem to record the ambient (see screenshots).
Furthermore, video recordings of the camera can be made either via the PC software, or via the web interface
As another interesting point, it is possible to control the camera with a smartphone and make your field of view shown in the display (see screen shots).

Installation:
Installation via cable is completed in 2 minutes. Simply connect the camera via LAN cable to the router, install the software from the CD and add the camera in the software. Finished!

The wireless setup the camera sees, however, quite tricky out because they (at least for me) not as described in the manual, easily can be set up through the PC software. For this, the web interface is needed.
You install the software 'IPCSearch' (also on the installation CD) and investigated the (still to the cable connected) camera. After that performs double-click the appearing entry and automatically takes you to the web interface, in which you look at (with username: admin and password: admin) logs.
Now you can activate in the settings, the wireless camera and connect via WLAN (Note: A 64-character password made up of letters and numbers was not recognized me The reduction to 30 characters brought the solution.).
If the wireless connection is simply pulls the cable from the camera and tries again via 'IPCSearch'.

If you want to use instead of the Web Interface additionally the PC software you have now the camera again, as in the operating instructions (for cable connection), Add.
Then the camera is to be used in the web interface, or via the software.

User Interface:
There are two different ways to use the camera again, both through the browser via the web interface, as well as via the included software.

PC Software IPCamClient:
The included software is restricted by the features something, so I can not really recommend. The movement of the camera is not infinitely, special takes place on predetermined angle. In addition, there was with me when shooting problems with the sound.

Web Interface:
Here it is different. The web interface is well designed and has more features than the PC software. You can let the camera automatically swivel and can also define fixed predetermined points at which the camera moves then.
The movement with the arrow keys of the web interface is not divided into fixed predetermined angle as opposed to the PC software, special takes place continuously.
Also in the video recording, there were no problems with the sound!

Quick Note: For the Web Interface must the 23-bit version of VLC Player installed (even with a 64-bit operating system) on the PC. In addition, a plug-in is still needed, but which can be easily downloaded via the web interface 'Simply click' download Player 'on the top left click and install.

Remote function:
For remote control of the camera with a smartphone app 'MyCAM Pro' is required. After installing this and after a successful search and connect the camera can now be done a part of the controller via the smartphone. However, the functionality is logically not as great as in the use on the PC.

Conclusion:
The wireless installation of the camera has given me some gnashing of teeth, but after a successful connection I can find on a camera in this price range nothing negative. So who will be well versed with computers have no problems with the camera. For those who are not familiar as well as I hope that my rough guide to setting up the wireless connection, a help will be.
Since I, as already mentioned, after installing the camera can recognize her anything negative and I am personally very pleased with her, she gets from me 5 stars.
