4. Operation Instruction
The two bridges are pre-paired at the factory. If they do not pair and connect automatically
when you receive the product, you can read the following instructions to pair and connect
them yourself.
There are two setting modes for wireless bridges: Auto-configuration mode and Custom
configuration mode.
A. Auto-configuration Mode: Simply connect the bridge with POE adapter and Internet
source, one select "A" mode and the other select "B" mode. Keep the master and slave both
in the same channel. The two bridges will be paired automatically without any other settings.
B. Custom Configuration Mode: You must be familiar with the network technology,
otherwise the bridges may lose the network or it will not work properly. This mode is mainly
used for reading parameters and debugging, also can be used to configure
point-to-multipoint video surveillance or network expansion (reserved function).
We strongly recommend you to choose auto-configuration mode when you use this product
for the first time. You can switch to custom mode after you understand the network settings.
