The AOV (Always-On Video) low-power technology enables continuous 24/7 recording, ensuring no moment is missed. The recording behavior adapts based on battery level:
- **Battery above 85% and charging:** 24-hour continuous recording.
- **Battery above 55%:** Low-frequency continuous monitoring recording, resumes normal recording when movements are detected.
- **Battery above 25%:** Starts recording only when movements are detected.
- **Battery below 25%:** Only live surveillance can wake up the device.
6.4. Night Vision Modes

You can define specific activity alarm areas through the mobile app. The camera will focus its detection and alerts on these designated zones.
6.7. Storage Methods
The camera supports two primary storage methods for recorded audio, video, and images:
- **Micro SD Card:** Supports up to 256GB for local storage. The device uses loop recording, automatically overwriting the earliest video when the card is full.

When the camera detects motion, it will quickly activate and record video, saving it to either the SD card or cloud storage.
6.8. Remote Access and Control

- **Solar Panel Care:** Regularly clean the solar panel surface to ensure maximum sunlight absorption and efficient charging. Dust, dirt, or snow can reduce its effectiveness.
- **Battery Management:** The camera has a built-in high-capacity battery. While solar-powered, prolonged periods of low sunlight may require manual charging if the battery level drops significantly below 25% for extended periods.
- **Weather Protection:** The IP66 rating ensures protection against dust and strong jets of water. However, avoid submerging the camera in water or exposing it to extreme physical impact.
- **Firmware Updates:** Yoosee App and device firmware will be updated from time to time. If prompted to upgrade, please upgrade online to ensure optimal performance and security.
8. Troubleshooting
- Q: What should I do if the camera shows offline in the APP device list?
-
- **Network Connection Failure:** If the prompt indicates "network connection failure," it means the 4G signal is not good. Please check whether the antenna is connected properly and compare the signal strength with your mobile phone.
- **Initialization Failure:** If the prompt is "initialization failure," first remove the SD card (if inserted) and try again. If multiple attempts still result in "initialization failure," please contact customer support.
- **4G Card Traffic:** Check the 4G card traffic. If the traffic is insufficient, please top up in the app.
