==== 2.3 Running SADP to prepare camera for login ====

Once installed, run SADP and have it find your camera. Once it finds your camera, click on that camera, set it to DHCP, and apply the configuration. You have to enter the password to do this.

The reason we are using DHCP at first rather than static IP is because this is insanely janky &amp; I want to confirm that it even works &amp; lets you log in at all before going further.

If you know the password, you’re done with 99% of the setup. If it doesn’t work, google the default password for that specific model of hikvision camera.

If that doesn’t work, you can either:

* Message the seller and ask them, but 99% of the time they know less than you about whatever they’re liquidating
* Open the camera physically &amp; find a button you can hit to reset it. At that point, the default user/pass you find on google should now work.
