Getting Started

After installing the ViOnyx camera, complete the initial setup through a web browser. This document explains all required steps, from certificate installation to setting the administrator password and logging in.

Info

If the camera does not obtain an IP address after a factory reset, it changes to the default IP address (https://192.168.1.100). Connect to that address in your web browser.

Certificate installation​

The ViOnyx Web Server uses a secure HTTPS connection. A security warning appears the first time you connect because the camera uses a self-signed certificate. Learn how to connect to the web server securely without warnings after adding the certificate to the Windows trusted store.

Download certificate​

  1. Connect to the camera in your web browser using the assigned IP address (https://{IP_address}).

  2. If the warning message "Your connection is not private" appears, click Advanced at the bottom.

  3. Expand the Advanced section, then click Proceed to https://{IP_address} (unsafe) or a similar link to continue.

  4. Click the Suprema ViOnyx Device Root CA link at the bottom of the password setup screen.

  5. Save the certificate file Suprema_ViOnyx_Device_{serial-number}_Root_CA.crt locally.

  8. Click Next.

Verify certificate installation​

In the Management Console, select Trusted Root Certification Authorities → Certificates to confirm that the imported certificate appears in the list.

After certificate installation completes, fully close and restart the web browser, then reconnect using the camera's IP address. You now connect securely without a security warning.

Set password​

Set a strong password for security when logging in for the first time. ViOnyx enforces a strong password policy to protect system security.
