FAQ Guide Overview

1. Disabling IE ActiveX Warnings

When I try to load the mCam application, Internet Explorer displays an ActiveX warning. How can

I resolve this?

There are 2 ways:

• Turn off the Active Content Warning in Internet Explorer. This will allow ActiveX content to

run from your local My Computer without any warnings being generated.

• Allow Active Content from the Security Bar (one time only). This will allow the ActiveX control

to run for this session, but you will need to do this every time you run the application.

Turn off Internet Explorer's Active Content Warning

The default configuration settings for Internet Explorer will display a warning when it tries to

display a page that contains Active Content.

Lorex mCam uses Active Content to interact with the cameras. To disable this warning message:

1. Open Internet Explorer, and select the ‘Tools’ option from the menu. Click

on the ‘Internet Options’ selection at the bottom of the menu.

FAQ Guide Overview

2. Click on the ‘Advanced’ tab, and scroll to the ‘Security’

section. Check the box labelled "Allow active content to

run in files on My Computer". Click the ‘Apply’ button,

then click the ‘OK’ button.

3. Close the Internet Explorer window. Restart the mCam

application.

Allow Active Content from the Security Bar (one time only)

This will allow the ActiveX control to run for this session, but you will need to do this every time

you run the application:

1. Click on the Security bar, and select ‘Allow Blocked Content’ from the dropdown menu.

2. Click on the ‘Yes’ button on the security warning.

FAQ Guide Overview

2. Video and Snapshot Archives

I am trying to locate my previously recorded video/snapshot images - where are the archived

Videos and Snapshots located?

Archive Location

The snapshots taken by Lorex mCam are archived on your PC hard drive (usually your C: drive).

The Microsoft Windows specification states that all application data should be stored in:

C:\Documents and Settings\YourUserName\Application Data\DMC

YourUserName is the username you use when you log in to Windows. For example, if your login

name is Joe User, the mCam videos and snapshots will be stored below the following root

directory:

C:\Documents and Settings\joeuser\Application Data\DMC

The previously saved files are saved in two locations:

• All snapshots are stored in the ‘Images’ subdirectory as JPG files

• All videos are stored in the ‘Videos’ subdirectory as WMV files.

• The subdirectories below these follow a pattern of YYYY\MM\DD, with the first directory

specifying the year, then the directory below specifying the month, and the directory below

specifying the day. For example, all videos and snapshots taken by Joe User with Lorex

mCam on Jan. 27, 2007 will be in the following two directories:

zC:\Documents and Settings\joeuser\Application Data\DMC\Videos\2007\01\27\*.WMV

zC:\Documents and Settings\joeuser\Application Data\DMC\Images\2007\01\27\*.JPG

The directory is fixed in version mCam 1.23 and prior, and cannot be changed.

FAQ Guide Overview

Displaying hidden files and directories

The Windows Default configuration may prevent you from locating the mCam directory using ‘My

Computer’ or Windows Explorer. To display Hidden Files and Directories:.

1. Double click the ‘My Computer’ icon on your desktop. If you

do not have this icon, click on the Windows Start button, and

select the ‘My Computer’ option.

2. Click on the ‘Tools’ option on the menu bar of the ‘My Computer’

window.

• Select the ‘Folder Options’ menu choice

• Click on the ‘View’ tab

• Navigate within the subsection titled ‘Advanced Settings’, and

check the radio button with the text "Show hidden files and

folders".

3. Click on the ‘Apply’ button, and the ‘OK’ button. Close the ‘My

Computer’ window.

FAQ Guide Overview

3. Scheduled Event Start Time

Why doesn't my Scheduled Event start at the first second of the minute specified?

The reason for this is that Windows does not allow for a second to be specified when scheduling

an event, but only a minute. Therefore the mCam Scheduled Event will start within the minute

specified, but not necessarily at the first second in that minute.

4. mCam and Windows 2000 Compatibility

Can I install the mCam on a Windows 2000 machine?

The Lorex mCam application is designed for Windows Media Center and Windows XP. It will

neither install nor run on Windows 2000.

Many of the camera drivers, however, are certified for Windows 2000, and the camera can be

used with other applications on Windows 2000 (i.e. Instant Messaging, etc.).

5. Starting the mCam Application

How do I launch the mCam Application?

Launch the mCam application from the Windows Start menu

NOTE: The installation does not create a shortcut on the desktop – it is helpful to create one for

quick launch of the mCam Application
