Using the USB Wifi Adapter System
The USB Wifi Adapter creates a wifi network when it is connected to the camera. Once the wifi network is active,
you can connect and access the camera's mobile web interface.
1. Connect one end of the micro USB to USB cable to the camera. For more information, see the illustrated
instruction manual provided with the USB Wifi Adapter System.
2. Connect the USB Wifi Adapter to the other end of the cable.
3. On your mobile device, access the wifi settings page and connect to the following wifi network:
AvigCam-
<last 6 digits of the USB Wifi Adapter MAC address>
For example: AvigCam-12a4b6
4. When you are prompted to enter a password, enter:
avigilon
5. Access the camera's mobile web interface at
camera.lan
.
If you are not automatically prompted to enter the username and password for the mobile web interface,
open your web browser and enter
http://camera.lan
.
The USB Wifi Adapter automatically redirects you to the correct IP address even if the camera has been
assigned a specific IP address.
6. When you are prompted, enter the camera's administrator username and password.
The default username is
administrator
with no password.
The first page you see displays the camera's live video stream. You can adjust the camera's zoom and focus
from this page. For more information, see
Configuring the Camera
on page 4.
After you finish configuring the camera from the mobile web interface, disconnect the USB Wifi Adapter.
Adding an Android Shortcut
To make accessing the mobile web interface more convenient, you can add a shortcut to camera.lan on your
Android Home screen.
The added benefit of accessing the mobile web interface from a shortcut is that the browser automatically hides
the address bar, so there is more screen space dedicated to the mobile web interface.
1. Connect and login to the camera mobile web interface. For more information, see
Using the USB Wifi
Adapter System
above .
2. In the Google Chrome web browser, display the browser menu and select
Add to Home screen
.
A shortcut is added to your Home screen.
Next time you use the USB Wifi Adapter, you can access the camera's mobile web interface from the shortcut.
