You can set up a multiple-camera network using the access point feature of one
VIRB® camera. This allows the
VIRB app to control all your cameras through this access point.
The first time you use multiple cameras with the
Garmin®
VIRB app, you must set up the camera access point and connect another camera to it.
-
Turn on the first camera, and turn on the
Wi‑Fi® radio (Turning the
Wi‑Fi Radio On or Off).
The camera broadcasts a
Wi‑Fi access point. You should not connect this camera to the app yet.
-
Turn on the second camera, and connect it to the app (Connecting to the
Garmin
VIRB App Using
Wi‑Fi Settings).
The camera connects to the app, and the viewfinder appears.
-
From the
Garmin
VIRB app viewfinder, select
.
A list of nearby
Wi‑Fi access points appears.
-
Select the access point broadcast by the first camera, and enter the password.
TIP:
The access point name and password appear on the first camera's screen.
The app and the second camera connect to the access point. The app communicates with both cameras through the access point. You can select
in the viewfinder to switch between your connected cameras (Switching Cameras).
The app and cameras save the
Wi‑Fi network information. The next time you turn on your cameras, you should turn on the access point camera first, followed by the other cameras. The cameras connect automatically.
If you have additional
VIRB cameras, you can add them to the camera network (Adding a Camera to the Network).
