Connecting your AI VIEW B3100 Full HD Bullet AI-Based Camera to your network involves a few straightforward steps. Here's a guide to help you get started:
-
Signal Connection: There are two main methods for connecting your camera:
- Method 1 (Model B3110-0200): Use a network cable to connect the camera's RJ45 port to a PoE (Power over Ethernet) switch. This setup eliminates the need for a separate 12VDC/1A power source.
- Method 2 (Model B3100-0200): Use a 12VDC/1A power source along with a network cable connected to a standard network switch.
-
Password Setup: The camera's IP address is typically assigned dynamically via DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol). You can use the AI View software's Scanner to find your camera's IP address on your network. If your camera isn't connected to a DHCP server, it will default to the IP address 192.168.1.168.
- When you access the camera for the first time, you'll be prompted to set a new password. Make sure the password meets the security criteria specified in the manual.
-
Software Installation: Access the camera's login screen using a web browser and enter your credentials.
- The default username is "admin".
- Use the password you set during the password setup step.
- Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the software installation.
Following these steps will help you successfully connect your AI VIEW B3100 Full HD Bullet AI-Based Camera to your network and start using its features.
