3. Power and Network Connection
The camera supports Power over Ethernet (PoE) for simplified installation.
- PoE Connection: Connect an Ethernet cable from a PoE-enabled switch or injector to the camera's Ethernet port. This will provide both power and network connectivity.
- Standard Power (Optional): If PoE is not used, connect a 12V DC power adapter (not included) to the camera's power input port. Then, connect an Ethernet cable from your network switch/router to the camera's Ethernet port.
Ensure the network connection is active and the camera receives power. The camera will typically perform a self-test upon power-up.
4. Initial Access and Configuration
To access the camera's web interface for initial configuration:
- Install the provided IP Installer software (or similar discovery tool) on a computer connected to the same network as the camera.
- Run the software to discover the camera's IP address.
- Open a web browser (e.g., Chrome, Firefox) and enter the camera's IP address in the address bar.
- Log in using the default username and password (refer to the Quick Start Guide for default credentials). It is highly recommended to change the default password immediately for security.
- Follow the on-screen prompts to configure basic settings such as network parameters, date/time, and video streaming options.
