Editing Introduction to a Self Managed Life: a 13 hour & 28 minute presentation by FUTO software (section)

==== 2.2 Download the SADP Tool ====

To fix this IP issue, Hikvision offers a tool called SADP. Unfortunately, this tool requires Windows. So, I’m booting up a sandboxed Windows computer here. It’s a burner computer I use for college math classes because, apparently, you can’t learn math on GNU/Linux, so I keep it around for the cancer that is Pearson Vue.

'''Download and Install SADP''': Grab it from [https://www.hikvision.com/us-en/support/tools/hitools/clea8b3e4ea7da90a9/ Hikvision’s website].

Sometimes, these cameras come with passwords that even the seller doesn’t know. You might have to reset it by hitting a button inside the camera to get it back to default settings.

'''Preparing the camera for login'''

Once SADP finds your camera, you can log in and configure it. Often, you’ll need to look up the default password online or in the manual.
