11: Connection target not found

  • In the case of [Connect to smartphone(tablet)], is Camera Connect running?

    • Establish a connection using Camera Connect ().

  • Are the camera and the access point set to use the same encryption key for authentication?

    • This error occurs if the encryption keys do not match when the authentication method for encryption is [Open system].

      Check upper- and lower-case letters, and make sure the correct encryption key for authentication is set on the camera ().

12: Connection target not found

  • Are the other device and access point for the connection turned on?

    • Turn on the other device and access point, then wait a while. If a connection still cannot be established, perform the procedures to establish the connection again.

21: No address assigned by DHCP server

What to check on the camera

  • On the camera, the IP address is set to [Auto setting]. Is this the correct setting?

    • If no DHCP server is used, configure the setting after setting the IP address to [Manual setting] on the camera ().

What to check on the DHCP server

  • Is the power of the DHCP server on?

    • Turn on the DHCP server.

  • Are there enough addresses for assignment by the DHCP server?

    • Increase the number of addresses assigned by the DHCP server.
    • Remove devices assigned addresses by the DHCP server from the network to reduce the number of addresses in use.

  • Is the DHCP server working correctly?

    • Check the DHCP server settings to make sure it is working correctly as a DHCP server.
    • If applicable, ask your network administrator to ensure the DHCP server is available.

23: Device with same IP address exists on selected network

  • Is another device on the camera network using the same IP address as the camera?

    • Change the camera's IP address to avoid using the same address as another device on the network. Otherwise, change the IP address of the device that has a duplicate address.
    • If the camera's IP address is set to [Manual setting] in network environments using a DHCP server, change the setting to [Auto setting] ().

Note

  • Responding to error messages 21–23

  • Also check the following points when responding to errors numbered 21–23.

    Are the camera and the access point set to use the same password for authentication?

61: Selected SSID wireless LAN network not found

  • Are any obstacles blocking the line of sight between the camera and the antenna of the access point?

    • Move the antenna of the access point to a position clearly visible from the point of view of the camera.

What to check on the camera

  • Does the SSID set on the camera match that of the access point?

    • Check the SSID at the access point, then set the same SSID on the camera ().

What to check at the access point

  • Is the access point turned on?

    • Turn on the power of the access point.

  • If filtering by MAC address is active, is the MAC address of the camera in use registered at the access point?

    • Register the MAC address of the camera used to the access point. The MAC address can be checked on the [MAC address] screen ().

64: Cannot connect to wireless LAN terminal

  • Are the camera and the access point set to use the same encryption method?

    • The camera supports the following encryption methods: WEP, TKIP, and AES ().

  • If filtering by MAC address is active, is the MAC address of the camera in use registered at the access point?

    • Register the MAC address of the camera used to the access point. The MAC address can be checked on the [MAC address] screen ().

65: Wireless LAN connection lost

  • Are any obstacles blocking the line of sight between the camera and the antenna of the access point?

    • Move the antenna of the access point to a position clearly visible from the point of view of the camera.

  • The wireless LAN connection was lost, for some reason, and the connection cannot be restored.

    • The following are possible reasons: excessive access to the access point from another device, a microwave oven or similar appliance in use nearby (interfering with IEEE 802.11b/g/n (2.4 GHz band)), or influence of rain or high humidity.
