Quick Start Guide

Turing Version Apps

Mobile Version
Congratulations on your purchase of a Turing Vision surveillance platform. Your hardware has been set up. All you need for a quick start is to activate and sign into your account.

terminology

Account: The company or business you work for.
Alert: An intrusion – when a person or vehicle is captured in the camera stream – triggers an alert.
Bridge: A bridge connects your cameras to Turing Cloud. A bridge is associated with only one site.
Cloud: Turing Vision Cloud
Notification: Email or text messages that tell users about alerts. Notifications are set up by account administrators and users (site managers).
NVR: Network video recorder.
Site: A Site is a logical grouping of cameras, as defined by your account. For example, you might define the west side of a warehouse as a Site. All the cameras along the west side follow the same rules for alerts and notifications.

Users

Dealer – if you’re a dealer or installer, you’ll use these instructions to set up accounts for your customers.
User/site manager – you’ll use Turing Vision to monitor your sites.
Account administrators – you’ll use Turing Vision to manage and monitor your sites.

One-time setup

Installers and account administrator
Congratulations on your purchase of a Turing Vision surveillance platform.
There are three ways you’ll set up an account, depending on your job function.
a) Installer
b) Account Administrator
c) Site manager

INSTALLER SET-UP
Sometimes the person who installs hardware also sets up customer accounts for account administrators. If you’re an installer who needs to set up accounts:
On your mobile device:

Download the Turing Vision App from the Apple App Store (https://apps.apple.com/us/app/turing-vision-video-security/id1574812235) or Google Play (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com. turingvideo. turning vision).
Access the Turing Vision app.
Click Sign up.
Use the customer’s name and email address. Select a password.
Have the customer accept the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy shown on the Create Account screen, and click Create Account.
Sign in with the credential created from the previous steps, and continue setting up each bridge and camera. Follow the instructions in Connect devices in this guide.

Will your customer need ongoing support? For example, will you need to troubleshoot for the customer?

If Yes, tell your customer to keep the current password. (Unless there are other security concerns.) You can log in to see what the customer sees.
If No, tell your customer to use Forgot your password? to choose a new password.

Connect devices
You are logged into your account. If you don’t see camera streams, you’ll need to get connected to some.

Use the following steps to work through the information hierarchy for adding a camera stream:

Dealer info
Site
Bridge
Camera

Click + Add Cameras to begin.

Installers only

Add dealer info
You should have received a unique ID (TTP) when you signed up with the Turing Partner Program.

Enter your TPP number. If you don’t have one, enter your contact info. Click Confirm.
Connect to sites
Click to select and connect to one or more existing sites – or enter location information to create a new site.
After you add dealer info and site, the first setup step is complete.

Connect to a bridge
Click to select and connect to an existing bridge – or scan the bridge QR code to add a new bridge. Click Confirm.
After you add a bridge, the second setup step is complete.

Connect NVR
Click to select an NVR and then click Confirm.

Enter your username and password to validate the connection. Click Add Cameras.
After you connect an NVR, the third setup step is complete.

Add cameras
The system searches for cameras at your selected site and bridge.
Click to select one or more cameras. Click Add.
Don’t see all the cameras you expect? Troubleshoot problems, such as offline cameras and click Try Again to rerun the search – or click Back to search for a different combination of site and bridge.

You can give cameras more meaningful names, so it’s easier to search for a camera and use a live stream:

Click the camera name.
Enter a new name.
Click Save.

After you add cameras, the setup is complete.

ACCOUNT ADMINISTRATOR SET-UP
Are you an account administrator?

On your mobile device:

Download the Turing Vision App from the Apple App Store (https://apps.apple.com/us/app/turing-vision-video-security/id1574812235) or Google Play (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com. turingvideo. turning vision).
Access the Turing Vision App.

Sign in using the account set up by your installer.
Will you need ongoing support from the installer?

If Yes, keep the current password. (Unless there are other security concerns.) The installer knows the password and can log in to see what you see.
If No, use Forgot your password? to choose a new password.

SITE MANAGER / USER SET-UP
Are you a site manager?

Ask your account administrator to invite you to a user account. You receive an email that contains a link. Click the link to create your new account and password.
Don’t wait! The link expires in 48 hours.
After you set up your account, access it from your mobile device:

Download the Turing Vision App from the Apple App Store (https://apps.apple.com/us/app/turing-vision-video-security/id1574812235) or Google Play (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com. turingvideo. turning vision).
Access the Turing Vision App sign-in screen.

If you are a site manager (user), do NOT create an account through the app.
RESET ADMIN OR USER ACCOUNT PASSWORD
Are you a site manager?

Are you an account administrator or site manager? You might want to reset your account password when you get your new account if you forget the password, of if you have security concerns.

Did click forget your password?
Enter your email address and click Send Email.
Follow the instructions in the email.
