The screen does not show H.264 images.

If the plugin software for display, Network Camera View 4S, has been uninstalled in an environment where the plugin software for display, Network Camera View 3, is installed, H.264 image display is disabled. In this case, uninstall Network Camera View 3, and then install Network Camera View 4S.

Are the camera and computer connected via Internet?

  • Set [Internet mode (over HTTP)] to [On].

Images are interrupted.

Image information may not be transmitted properly due to congestion in the transmission path, etc., causing the images to be interrupted.

  • Consult your network administrator.

The sequence of packets may be changed in the transmission path, causing the images to be interrupted.

  • It may be avoided by using the same Internet service provider on the camera and on the computer. Consult your network administrator.

Some combinations of the computer’s display adaptor and driver may cause this problem. (Windows)
