10. Photo Quality
Lighting conditions have the greatest influence on photo quality.
The CCFC camera produces the best photos under normal
daylight conditions. Pictures taken in well-lit daylight conditions
produce crisper and brighter photos.
Scenes that contain small variations in light intensities will
produce better photos. In scenes with high variations in light
intensities, such as a bright sky or a dark horizon, the photo may
contain portions that are under-exposed and portions that are
over-exposed, as with most cameras. The CCFC utilizes various
techniques to produce the best photo possible under these lighting
conditions.
11. Connecting to the Web Interface
The CCFC supports an automatic IP address configuration in
situations where the camera is directly connected, via an Ethernet
cable, to a computer. If using this method, input the IP address
169.254.99.99 into the Internet browser.
Refer to Section 11.2 Setup Using Ethernet for details on making
the initial network connection to the camera. To establish
communications with the camera, use one of the methods
previously discussed. Enter the appropriate IP address in the
address bar of the browser. After typing the address, the
homepage (Dashboard) of the CCFC camera should appear, as
shown in Figure 12-1 Dashboard Desktop view.
The camera ships with automatic network configuration via
DHCP enabled. It is highly recommended to keep track of any
changes made to the network settings.
11.1 Setup Using Wi-Fi
The CCFC is Wi-Fi enabled. While the camera is powering up,
start the computer/mobile device and connect to the camera via its
Wi-Fi network. The camera will appear as CCFC-1000 (for
example), where 1000 is the last four digits of the camera’s serial
number, on the Wi-Fi network.
