This guide walks you through the four things you need to get ARGUS watching your store. Most stores finish in under 10 minutes.
1

Sign in to your dashboard

Go to dashboard.useargus.co and sign in with the account you were given. Your dashboard is where you’ll manage cameras, review incidents, and choose who gets alerted.
2

Add your first camera

Connect a camera so ARGUS has something to watch. A small ARGUS app runs on an always-on computer in your store that can see your cameras on the local network, and streams them to ARGUS for analysis.See Add a camera for the full walkthrough.
3

Set up who gets alerted

Decide where alerts should go and add your recipients. ARGUS sends alerts by SMS and email — text the on-shift manager, send to a shared inbox, or both. You can add more recipients at any time in Settings.See Alerts & notifications to set this up.
4

Review your first incident

When ARGUS detects something, it creates an incident and alerts your recipients. Open it from the Incidents tab to see what happened, then confirm it or mark it a false positive.See The incident workflow for how to review and act on incidents.
That’s it — ARGUS is now watching your store and will keep you posted as incidents happen. To understand what’s going on behind the scenes, read How ARGUS works.
