Existing cameras

Reuse supported network cameras or feeds from the recorder already installed at your site.

An old Windows PC

Install Firewoof HOST. It checks the computer and recommends a suitable camera capacity for that hardware.

Your current network

Connect the PC and cameras to the same router or site network so the HOST can discover them.

BEFORE YOU START

Prepare these
five things.

Most sites already have them. You do not need to purchase a complete replacement system.

✓
A Windows PC that can stay powered onAn old PC is fine to assess; Firewoof checks its capability.
✓
Powered, connected camerasKeep the cameras or recorder online during setup.
✓
The same router or site networkThe HOST discovers cameras on the local site network.
✓
The owner's phone and Firewoof appUse them for pairing and phone notifications.
✓
Camera credentials, only if requestedDo not enter them first; add them only when discovery asks.

CAMERA NOT FOUND?

Try four simple checks
before calling a technician.

Most discovery problems can be solved without advanced network settings.

01
Check camera power
Confirm its power indicator and wired or wireless connection.
02
Confirm the same router
The camera and HOST PC need to be on the same router or site network.
03
Select “Scan again”
A retry looks for missing devices without restarting the full setup.
04
Enter credentials when prompted
If a camera uses a custom password, add it after the scan requests it.

equipment first.
