CAMERA CONFIGURATION SEQUENCE
Once the device is installed and power is applied, the device will start a configuration sequence: the green LED flashes five times per second for
approximately two minutes and then glows solid green, indicating that the boot cycle is complete and the device is on line.
NOTE: If the device is not connected to a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server and DHCP is enabled, the configuration sequence
might take up to five minutes to complete.
