Setting up your TruVision M Series Fixed IP Wedge Camera for remote viewing allows you to monitor your property from anywhere. Here's how to do it:
- Connect the Camera: Use an Ethernet cable to connect your TruVision M Series camera to your router or a network switch. Ensure the camera is powered either via Power over Ethernet (PoE) from a PoE switch or using a 12 VDC power supply.
- Access the Camera's Web Interface: Open a web browser on a computer connected to the same network as the camera. Enter the camera's IP address in the address bar. You can find the IP address by checking your router's connected devices list or using a network scanning tool.
- Log In: Enter the default username and password for your TruVision camera. These credentials are typically found in the camera's user manual. After logging in, you can access the camera's settings.
- Configure Remote Access: Within the camera settings, locate the network or remote access section. Enable remote access, and create a unique username and password for remote viewing.
- Port Forwarding (if needed): To access the camera from outside your home network, you might need to set up port forwarding on your router. Consult your router's manual or your internet service provider (ISP) for assistance with port forwarding.
- Mobile App Setup: Download the appropriate mobile app for the TruVision M Series camera onto your smartphone. Then, input the camera's IP address, along with the username and password you created, to view the camera feed remotely.
- Computer Viewing: To view the camera feed on your computer, use a web browser and enter the camera's IP address. Log in with the username and password you previously set up to access the camera remotely.
