      Last Modified 04/01/21

      Introduction

      The ClareVision camera line includes Value, Performance, and Varifocal series cameras which are available in bullet, dome, and turret forms. This guide covers the setup process for using these cameras standalone with only the ClareVision App and how to add them to work with the ClareOne Panel and ClareHome App.

      Part 1 of 3: ClareVision Camera Setup:

       
      1.  Download the IP Search Tool HERE to your computer and launch the program. 
       
      IP_Search_Tool
       
      2. Ensure your computer is connected to the same network as the cameras to discover all the cameras available on the network.
       
      3. Copy the IP Address of the camera you would like to start configuring and paste it into your web browser to open the camera console. (We highly recommend you use Internet Explorer for optimal performance).

      4.  Enter default camera username (Default: admin) and password (First six characters of the UUID/SN found on the rear of the camera or Installation Manual sticker).

       5.  You will be prompted to change the default password. Please have the primary user change the password and write it down on the back of the Installation Manual that came with the camera. Leave this manual with the primary user for future technical servicing.
       
      Login_Reset
       
      6.  Have the user select and input their security questions for password recovery. We also recommend that the password reset key be downloaded and emailed to the primary user for safe keeping in the event that the password and security reset answers are lost.
       
      NOTE: You should now be able to log into the camera web console which gives you access to all advanced camera configuration settings. Here you can adjust motion detection settings, storage, smart events (Performance Series cameras), and more.
