1.5 Hardware Instruction

Figure 1.4

To set up your camera hardware, follow each of the following steps carefully to ensure optimum camera operation:

1.Install WI-FI antenna

2.Plug power adaptor into camera

3.Connect network cable into both camera and into router for initial set-up (initial set-up is not over WiFi; please keep network cable inserted during initial set-up. Later,, when you have established your camera on your wireless network, the hard wire from the camera to the router may be removed, see section 3.4. It should, however, remain connected during initial setup.)

4.Note: it takes approximately 30 seconds for camera to boot; once this is done, find the “IP address” in

IP CAMERATOOLS (see Figure 2.1)

5.Note: Once the proper software is installed and once both power and network cables are connected to the camera unit, an led indicator should glow green steadily to indicate the camera is now on. Later, when you establish your wireless internet connections, an LED will flash yellow to indicate when the camera is transmitting to the Cloud. Please note that the proper software must be installed for these LEDs to function properly! SEE NEXT SECTION FOR SOFTWARE INSTALLATION.
