Check the box of the camera you are adding and click on "ADD" and you will see the camera populate on the bottom box
Give it a few seconds and click on refresh to see if it was added properly. As you can see the status light is now green
Method Two:
The second method is used if there's an existing camera and it's password was changed. You will use device search to locate the camera and then go to manual add to change the password it's being added with
Do a Device Search to locate the camera. Check the camera and click on "Manual Add"
A popup window will come up and most of the information will be populated. You will just need to change the password, click on save when you're done.
