Once you set it up it's dummy proof. Turn power switch on and aim

Made a quick video for those of you asking about my non-cell service HD IP Target Camera setup...
Here some pictures of the camera looking at target thats been shot with 22LR hanging in my office. Camera is about 28' away.. This is an 8MP 3840x2160 4K HD VF Motorized 2.8-13.5mm IP POE camera... The larger image is the camera zoomed in to 13.5mm at 28' from target.. The second picture is my utilizing the digital zoom feature of the camera to zoom in to the target about 60% of the way...
As stated in the video, Im just waiting on a new mount that will be here tomorrow to enclose the camera pigtail in and connect the ARCA adapter to so I can pop the camera on and off quickly. I had a different camera and it was rigged on there before so I decided to redo it.
Im rebuilding the firing line box but as stated in the video, its an identical setup but instead of the camera connected, it has a pocket size router/WiFi AP... I dont want the tripod at the firing line, so all the hardware shown in the target camera pelican 1170 will go inside an ammo can sized box and Ill mount the Nanostation articulating arm to the outside.. Just sent the ammo can on the bench at the firing line and aim the Nano as you wish to the Target cam...

Pretty simple stuff to wire up. Little networking knowledge to program everything the first time but after that its just power on and thats it. No fiddling with anything once its all programmed.
The key is to pick a subnet from the start and set that up in your pocket router/wifi ap.. Pick something non-typical. Dont pick 192.168.1.0/24 or 10.0.0.0/24 or 10.1.10.0/24 or any of the standard subnets.. I use 192.168.99.1 for my router IP and have its DHCP Pool start 192.168.99.100 - 192.168.99.200. You arent using DHCP for this setup except 1 IP for your phone, tablet or laptop to connect to the system at the firing line, everything else needs to be static IP's so you just make your DHCP pool 50 or 100 or higher..
Than I give the router 192.168.99.1 like I said, I give the NanoStations 192.168.99.10 and 192.168.99.11 then I give my cameras 192.168.99.20, 21, 22, etc..
If anyone needs any help with how to do this, I can walk them through it or make a quick video. Its easy but I do this every day so some of you might think Im speaking chinese...
Hahah..

Here what the system/camera app looks like on my phone... can use this same app on apple/android phone, tablet or MAC/PC. Or all of the above at the same time.. can connect as many devices as you want to this setup at the firing line...
Camera still at 28' from target.
App in portrait mode 6 camera view.... you can change it to 1, 4, 6, 9, 12, or 16 camera view at the same time...
Turn your phone to landscape on the single camera and you get this view
You can zoom in and out.. I zoomed in here to see just the full target
Here I zoomed in to one individual point of aim/target
