So yesterday I tried to hook up our Axis camera to begin setting up our team's first camera/aiming system, however without any lights on the camera, I have no idea if I have power to it or not.
I also don't know how to check if the ethernet connection works fine.

First of all in terms of suppying power to the camera, it is connected to the 5 volt port on the power distribution board via the WAGO connector.
Also, did you guys figure out how to connect the camera to your computer? if not, here's a link that might help you. look under 'Axis camera setup.

If the IP address doesn't work, you might consider resetting the camera to its default IP address. To do this, hold down the reset button and then plug in the power. Don't let go of the reset button until the lights on the front of the camera turn on. Then, try reconecting the camera to the computer.
If it works and you successfully connect the camera to your FRC account, you can now connect the camera to the wireless bridge and the wireless bridge to the computer.
Then open up the driver's station and the dashboard. If the camera is connected, click enable and an image should appear.
Hope this helps!
