Q. How can I access the setup page for the PVC2300?

By default the camera is set to receive an IP address from a DHCP server. Check the MAC address of the PVC2300, found at the bottom part of the device, and access the DHCP client table of you router. You will see the MAC address of the DHCP client and their corresponding IP addresses.

Press the Enter key and the Login screen will appear. The first time you open the web-based utility, enter
"admin" (both for the Username and Password fields). Click the OK button.

Once you have the IP address, open your web browser and enter the assigned IP address in Address field. Make sure that the computer is either a DHCP client of the same router or computer is assign with a static IP address same as the local IP address of the camera.
