This guide describes how to configure the system after the Avigilon AI Appliance has been powered and is
connected the local area network.
Before You Start
Avigilon recommends the use of an uninterruptible power supply (UPS) system to protect your video
surveillance system hardware. A UPS system is used to protect critical equipment from mains supply
problems, including spikes, voltage dips, fluctuations and complete power failures using a dedicated
battery. It can also be used to power equipment during the time it takes for a standby generator to be
started and synchronized.
Any UPS connection must include configuration to shut down the operating system on the appliance when
battery power is low or there is 15 minutes of power remaining.
It is recommended that cameras not be connected to the appliance until after the appropriate network
configuration has been set up.
