Regularly check the above website to updates, tips and tricks 

as well as troubleshooting advice.

Unit will not power on

If powering by PoE, ensure your network switch hardware is 
capable of PoE/PoE+ power delivery.
If powering via DC please ensure the supplied DC power pack is 
securely plugged in at both ends.

Can not see BirdDog on network

Ensure your network has a DHCP server, these are commonly part 
of your Internet router hardware.

Can not see BirdDog as a source

If BirdDog does not appear as a selectable video source in your 
application it may be because it is not currently receiving a valid 
video signal, please ensure you are delivering a compatible video 
signal and reboot the device or press restart video in the web 
console.

Firmware update did not complete

If your  firmware update did not complete successfully it may be 
because the unit could not access the Internet to verify the update 
completely, please try again on a network that has access to the 
Internet.

Video is not smooth or corrupted

If your video is not looking correct please change the video input 
settings from Auto to Manual in the web interface and force the 
required input format.
