From unpacking to a first response
Unpack and position
Check the appliance, AC adapter and cables, then position it. Prepare a monitor, keyboard and mouse for initial device setup. Specialist engineering is not generally required.
Connect and power on
Connect the LAN cable (or Wi-Fi 7) and power, then switch on. Initial OS setup requires temporary internet access.
Initial configuration
Follow the supplied manual to complete OS setup, then configure the administrator account and network. Initial OS setup and updates may take about one hour. See the Support page.
Get your first response and start working
From a computer on the internal network, open the service in your browser. After initial setup, client devices need no dedicated software and local AI can operate offline.
An offline-operation demonstration is planned for Evidence and security.
