Factory Reset of IP4M-1026EW Bullet Camera

Post by johnmayer8192 »

I'm locked out of one of my eight Amcrest cameras. Model: IP4M-1026EW. Anyone know the access procedure and reset procedure to reset to factory defaults?

Hello,

1) First unfasten and remove the top shield of the camera. No necessary but will make the process much easie

2) Next, Carefully remove the top plastic covering around lens and IR.

3) Then unfasten the 4 screws to remove the lid with IR LEDS and exposing the camera’s motherboard.

4) Then, unplug the IR LEDS. THis is not completely necessary but recommended as well.

5) The reset switch is by the IR LED plug.

6) Press and hold for about 45 sec.

7) The device should be Reset.The password and username should also reset to admin. I would recommend to keep your password to 6 characters until firmware upgrade is done.

After completing the firmware upgrade, please make your password a minimum 8 characters.
Avoid any special characters or symbols.
