6. Troubleshooting

• Camera not powering on: Ensure the solar panel is connected correctly and receiving sufficient sunlight. Check the built-in battery charge level via the app.
• No network connection (4G/WiFi): For 4G models, verify the SIM card is correctly inserted, active, and has data. For WiFi models, ensure the camera is within range of your WiFi router and the network credentials are correct in the app.
• Motion detection not working or too many false alarms: Adjust the PIR sensitivity settings in the mobile app. Ensure the camera's view is clear of obstructions that might trigger false alarms (e.g., rapidly moving branches).
