Autoprovisioning
Users will be guided through a series of steps, and self-checks to ensure proper installation and system
readiness. The IPC1100 will run through a series of self tests and registration routines before becoming
ready. The guide will be in a “wizard” mode in which the health and status is displayed and an
instructional procedure will be presented to assist you to properly rectify any problems in the process.
Before the IPC can be provisioned, the VMS in the same household must be provisioned first in order to
make the proper preparation for the IPC. The IPC can be connected to the BHR through MoCA or
Ethernet.
