#1 http://192.168.0.35/ (substitute your camera’s IP)

#2 Login: default username admin, default password admin

#3 Click “Setup” near theΒ upper right hand corner

#4 Select “System -> General” in the left hand navigation bar

#5 Select the “Date & Time” tab, then manually set the time (or sync with NTP server if you prefer).

Hopefully that helps πŸ™‚
