Access point connection issues
Ensure that there are no Ethernet/Wi-Fi conflicts on your PC or Mac –

next power up. If a file is recoverable, it will be recovered at this time.

video/images. There are two settings for exposure adjustments – the first is the exposure zone. You likely will need
to change the exposure zone to the spot mode. This is done by calling /api/sensor/exposurezone=spot or using the
html application’s video tab under the “other” section. If using the html page, remember to scroll down and hit the
