- Use the camera’s pin hole to reset it and let it perform a power cycle.
- Close the Alert Commander software and then restart it.

- Use the camera’s pin hole to reset it and let it perform a power cycle.
- Close the Alert Commander software and then restart it.
Red LED – This indicates that camera boot-up has failed. Please do the following:
