A regular IR camera, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.seeedstudio.com\/Raspberry-Pi-Camera-Module-V2.html\">Raspberry Pi Camera Module v2<\/a> was used in this case, the one as shown below. But you can select any Pi camera as you like!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/media-cdn.seeedstudio.com\/media\/catalog\/product\/cache\/9d0ce51a71ce6a79dfa2a98d65a0f0bd\/r\/a\/raspberry-pi-camera-v2-preview_1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"408\" height=\"306\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you got your camera, we will need to install the camera, and to do this go to the ribbon slot (the one directly behind the Ethernet port) using two fingers gently pull up on both sides of the connector as you can see from the image below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pi.lbbcdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/clips-and-ribbon-cable.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"525\" height=\"285\"\/><figcaption>Ref: <a href=\"https:\/\/pi.lbbcdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/12\/clips-and-ribbon-cable.jpg\">PiMyLifeUp<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Once the connector is opened, insert the ribbon cable with the metal leads facing away from the Ethernet port.

The instruction to setup are as follows:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Download MotionEye OS and formating SD card<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 1<\/strong>: Download the MotionEye OS SD Card Image from the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/github.com\/ccrisan\/motioneyeos\/releases\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">MotionEye OS GitHub repository<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 2<\/strong>: Visit the&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sdcard.org\/downloads\/formatter\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">SD Association\u2019s website<\/a>&nbsp;and download SD Formatter for either Windows or Mac. The purpose of this is to format your software, then proceed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 3<\/strong>: Insert your SD card into the computer or laptop\u2019s SD card reader and check the drive letter allocated to it, e.g. G:\/<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 4<\/strong>: In SD Formatter, select the drive letter for your SD card (eg. G:\/) and format<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Install MotionEye OS Image onto SD Card<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 1<\/strong>: Download&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/sourceforge.net\/projects\/win32diskimager\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Win32DiskImager<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 2<\/strong>: Unzip MotionEye OS&nbsp;<strong>img<\/strong>&nbsp;file to install it onto the Pi safely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 3<\/strong>: Select the MotionEye OS&nbsp;<strong>img<\/strong>&nbsp;file and the drive letter your SD card is assigned (Eg.&nbsp;<strong>G:\/<\/strong>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pi.lbbcdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/win32diskimager-motionpie.jpg\" alt=\"\"\/><figcaption>Ref: <a href=\"https:\/\/pi.lbbcdn.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/win32diskimager-motionpie.jpg\">PiMyLifeUp<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 4<\/strong>: Confirm you have the correct details and click on&nbsp;<strong>Write<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 5<\/strong>: Once you&#8217;re done, you can then safely remove your SD card from the computer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Setting up MotionEye OS<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, insert your SD Card, Ethernet cord, and the power cord to prepare for rebooting. And now you can reboot your RPI and proceed to setup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Setting up your Raspberry Pi Security Camera<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 1<\/strong>: You&#8217;ll need to know your IP or hostname, so in order to do so:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>If you\u2019re using Windows, simply go to network on the right-hand side in the File Explorer.<\/li><li>You should see a computer names something like&nbsp;MP-E28D9CE5<\/li><li>Go to your browser and add this to your browser bar e.g.&nbsp;<code><strong>http:\/\/MP-E28D9CE5<\/strong><\/code><\/li><li>You should now have the MotionEye OS interface up.<\/li><li>Though you can also find out the IP of the Pi by going to your router.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 2<\/strong>: To log in as the admin go to the key symbol in the upper-left corner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>The username is&nbsp;<code>admin<\/code>&nbsp;and the password is blank (Don\u2019t enter any password), this can be changed later.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>And it should do the trick! Though if you want to run more than one security camera, keep scrolling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">If you&#8217;re setting up multiple networks Raspberry Pi security cameras<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 1<\/strong>: Click on the three lines with dots on them in the upper left-hand corner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 2<\/strong>: Now up in the upper-left-hand corner and click on the drop-down box and select add camera.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Step 3<\/strong>: There four settings to set up:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Device<\/strong>: This allows you to select where the camera is located(network\/local) and type.
