User Manual
Introduction
This manual provides an overview of Scylla Asteria™ Vanguard and instructions on how to set it up and use it.
At Scylla, we utilize AI and computer vision to detect objects, actions, and behavior anomalies. Scylla AI-powered solutions serve to improve every part of your security infrastructure and range from object detection, anomaly detection & behavior recognition, to perimeter intrusion detection, facial recognition, and drone security. We expanded our product offering and included Scylla Asteria Vanguard, a smart edge monitoring solution. It’s specifically designed to provide small-scale installations with advanced AI-powered functionality. The greatest thing about it is that it’s compact enough to sit on a shelf and is cost-effective, which is particularly great for small businesses and homeowners. This would help even more customers to bolster their security and better protect their people and property.
When the detection occurs, Scylla sends a real-time alert with a photo of the detection to your mobile device or VMS. It adequately protects facilities by detecting intruders using existing security cameras, eliminating the need for new hardware, and saving you money and time.
Whether you monitor, install, or manufacture CCTV, Scylla is here to help you to detect and potentially prevent crimes using the most accurate, fast and human-factor free AI analytics.
With Scylla's AI-powered analysis, you can get real-time security alerts from your cameras. Use your dashboard to define monitoring zones, schedule alerts, and view live or recorded video anytime.
General
Scylla Asteria Vanguard operates on-premise, using your local infrastructure for edge processing. When connected to the cloud, you can manage alarms and view live and recorded streams through the Scylla Cloud Dashboard.
Scylla Asteria Vanguard can be fully managed using the Scylla AI mobile app, available for both Android and Apple iOS devices.
Scylla Asteria Vanguard dedicated Web Dashboard is password-protected, so you must log in by providing your user credentials (username/password) to access the dashboard.
Warnings and Restrictions
ATTENTION! Please note that Scylla Asteria™ is equipped with a passive cooling system. That means that during the installation and operation Scylla Asteria™ can heat up to approximately 65℃.
The device requires observation and caution during the installation. The device should not be installed near inflammables.
Login
After connecting the Scylla Asteria™ Vanguard to the local network, you must find the IP address of the
device. There are two ways to do that.
The second way is to download and install the free tool of Advanced IP Scanner from https://www.advanced-ip-scanner.com/.
Scan the network to get the available IPs in the network.
You can also find out how to find an IP address from the manual that comes with the device.
then click on Wired Connection, after Go to IPv4 Settings tab and you can change your IP settings to Manual, or DHCP, etc.
Now you can login into Asteria dashboard.
After you get the IPV4 address you can log in to the device dashboard from any PC in the local
network using the device’s IP (For example: http://192.168.11.123/login).
If you are already logged in, you will be redirected to the main Dashboard page.
If you are not logged in, you need to enter your Username and Password (admin/admin by default) into the corresponding fields and click the Login button.
NOTE. Please be attentive while entering your username and password into the fields. Make sure you have not copied any additional characters or left leading spaces.Example of leading spaces:Wrong: “ username” has leading spacesCorrect: “username” does not have any leading spaces.

Outdoor Monitoring
Long-range monitoring (small intruders, 30-45 pixels): Keep the Residential setting OFF to detect distant objects.
Close-range monitoring (larger intruders, 50+ pixels): Turn the Residential setting ON to minimize false positives.
Indoor Monitoring
For indoor environments with generally larger objects, it is recommended to turn the Residential setting ON.
Summary:
Outdoor Long-range/Small objects: Residential = OFF
Outdoor Close-range/Large objects: Residential = ON
Indoor Monitoring: Residential = ON

Configurations
This menu includes configurations related to IDS module such as Thresholds, cooldown etc.
Click the Configure button in the thresholds row to open the Thresholds window.
In this section, we introduce a recent feature – thresholds – and the capability to fine-tune them. Thresholds play a crucial role in the analytical system, influencing the determination of whether a specific object qualifies as one of the objects of interest. Simply put, the AI predicts the likelihood of an object, and this probability is then compared to a set threshold. If the probability surpasses the threshold, the object is confirmed, triggering the formation of a corresponding alarm. Conversely, if the probability falls below the threshold, the object is disregarded.
To enhance the selectivity and certainty of detections, it is advisable to raise the corresponding threshold. However, if you wish to increase the detector's sensitivity, even at the expense of a higher potential for mistakes, lowering the corresponding threshold is recommended.
The same set of thresholds are applied across all cameras. So, when you change the preset value, it will affect analysis of all cameras in your system.
For each category and mode, predefined values for "sensitive," default "normal," and "selective" settings are available. It is recommended to use these values when tuning your system's performance.
You also have the option to set custom values, but it is advisable to consult Scylla Tech support beforehand.
Examples
-
If your system generates more False Positive alerts for a person during the night, you can set the IR Threshold for Person to a "selective" level. If your system generates more False Positive alerts for a person during the night, you can set the IR Threshold for Person to a "selective" level.
-
To increase the system's sensitivity and detect distant, small cars before they approach your fence (with no concern for other objects resembling cars), adjust the thresholds for all vehicles of interest to "Sensitive" in both the "Thresholds" To increase the system's sensitivity and detect distant, small cars before they approach your fence (with no concern for other objects resembling cars), adjust the thresholds for all vehicles of interest to "Sensitive" in both the "Thresholds"
