Marco Albertini by Marco Albertini

Wired HD IP Bird Box camera is used by birdwatchers to monitor or track birds in their nests or natural habitats. It’s small in size, painted green, and seems like the birds are not bothered by its presence.

By default, the Wired HD IP Bird Box camera doesn’t have a password and you just can leave it blank. But, if you did create a password for your camera and then accidentally forgot it, then you need to reset it by following the procedure shown in this guide.

Just to clarify, this is the password that you set on the camera when you first initialized it (connected to the internet), not the account password for the phone apps such as XMEye or iCSee Pro. If you need to reset an XMEye DVR, then consult this article.

To reset this type of bird box camera you need:

  • A laptop to access the IP camera’s interface via the network using the Internet Explorer browser.
  • XMEye Pro app installed on your phone. We will use this app to generate the reset code for the camera. The app can be installed on Android or Apple.
  • Download the app called XMEye Pro on your phone or tablet.

The first thing you need to do is find the IP address of the camera which we will need to access via the web browser. The easiest way to do this is to use CMS5, the desktop software that manages, views, and records these camera models.

This software comes with the bird camera package. If you don’t have it, check with the seller.  Additionally, you may use other scanning tools such as the ones discussed here. 

Once the CMS5 is installed and running, navigate to the Device Manage page and you should see the IP camera listed over there. The IP address of the device can be found under IP/Port followed by the port number. In our case, the IP address is 192.168.1.100:3400.
Next, you need to type this IP address in the URL bar of the Internet Explorer browser (only this browser works for this camera, the others such as Chrome, Mozilla, Edge won’t work). We typed: http://192.168.1.100 and then you should see the login page as shown below.
