5. Night Vision Modes

The cameras support multiple night vision modes:

6. Wireless Bridge Function

The system utilizes a wireless bridge function to extend the WiFi distance for cameras. In an open environment, the WiFi connection distance can be up to 60 meters. In a partition environment (through walls), the continuous distance is typically 10-25 meters. Actual performance may vary based on environmental factors.

Maintenance

• HDD Management: If an HDD is installed, regularly check its status and ensure sufficient storage space. The NVR supports up to 16TB. Refer to the NVR interface or app for recording duration estimates based on HDD capacity.
• Camera Cleaning: Periodically clean the camera lenses with a soft, dry cloth to ensure clear image quality.
• Firmware Updates: Check the SriHome app or official website for any available firmware updates for your NVR and cameras to ensure optimal performance and security.
• Environmental Protection: The IPC057 cameras are IP66 waterproof, providing effective protection against dust and water. However, avoid submerging the cameras or exposing them to extreme conditions beyond their rating.

Troubleshooting

• No Video Feed: Ensure all power adapters are securely connected to both the NVR and cameras. Check if the monitor is correctly connected to the NVR via HDMI or VGA.
• "Network Not Working" on NVR: Verify that the cameras are powered on and within the NVR's WiFi range. If using the LAN cable for NVR internet access, ensure it's properly connected to your router and the router has an active internet connection.
• App Connection Issues: Make sure your NVR is connected to the internet via LAN cable. Confirm your mobile device has an active internet connection. Re-scan the QR code in the app to re-add the device if necessary.
• No Recording: Check if an HDD is installed in the NVR. Ensure the HDD is properly formatted and has sufficient free space. Verify recording schedules and settings in the NVR interface or app.
• Poor Night Vision: Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from obstructions. For full-color night vision, ensure the white lights are enabled in settings and there are no strong light sources directly interfering.
• Intermittent WiFi Connection: Reposition cameras or the NVR to minimize physical obstructions (thick walls, metal objects) that might interfere with the wireless signal.

User Tips

• Optimal WiFi Range: For the best wireless performance, try to place cameras and the NVR in locations with minimal physical obstructions like thick walls or large metal objects. The wireless bridge function extends range, but direct line-of-sight is always best.
• Continuous Recording: If you require continuous recording, ensure you install a compatible Hard Disk Drive (HDD) in the NVR. Regularly check the HDD status and available space through the NVR interface or the SriHome app.
• App Connectivity: Always ensure your NVR is connected to the internet via the LAN cable for seamless remote access and notifications through the SriHome app.
• Two-Way Audio Use: Utilize the two-way audio feature for convenient communication with visitors or to deter unwanted activity.
