    Question

    How do I troubleshoot connection issues and register the ANRAN B04 camera in the app?

    Answer

    It appears you are having significant trouble with the initial setup and registration of your ANRAN B04 camera. Based on the manual and app support details, please try the following steps to resolve these connectivity issues:

    • Verify the App: Ensure you are using the ARCCTV app, which is the official application for this model. You can find it on the Google Play Store or Apple App Store.
    • Reset the Camera: Before attempting a new connection, perform a factory reset. Locate the Reset button (usually near the SD card slot) and press and hold it for 5-8 seconds until you hear a prompt.
    • Wi-Fi Requirements: Ensure your router is broadcasting a 2.4GHz signal, as most security cameras do not support 5GHz networks. During setup, keep the camera within 5 meters of the router.
    • AP Mode Connection: If the standard setup fails, try the "Configure WiFi in AP mode" steps:
      1. Power on the camera and wait for the "Start Configuration mode" voice prompt.
      2. Go to your phone's WLAN/Wi-Fi settings and connect to the camera's hotspot (starts with "IPCS_XXXXX"). The default password is 11111111.
      3. Once connected, return to the ARCCTV app, click "+", select "Other ways to add", and then "LAN scan" to find the device.
    • Registration Issues: If the app says the device "doesn't exist," ensure you have successfully registered an account using a valid email or phone number and verified it with the code sent to you before trying to add the hardware.

    If you still cannot reach official support via phone, you may try emailing support@anran-cctv.com or app@anran-cctv.com as listed in their developer contact information.

    Question

    Why is my ANRAN B04 camera not following moving people?

    Answer

    To enable or troubleshoot the motion tracking feature on your ANRAN B04 camera using the ARCCTV app, please check the following settings:

    • Enable Motion Detection: Go to the camera's Settings and ensure that Motion Detection and Motion Recording are turned on.
    • Check PTZ Settings: The camera uses PTZ (Pan-Tilt-Zoom) functions to move. In the app's live view, ensure the PTZ control is responsive. Some models require a specific "Intelligent Tracking" or "Human Tracking" toggle to be enabled within the detection settings menu to follow movement automatically.
    • App Refresh: If the settings appear correct but the camera does not move, try logging out of the ARCCTV app and logging back in, as this has been reported to resolve synchronization issues.
    • Firmware Updates: Ensure your camera and the ARCCTV app are updated to the latest version, as many updates specifically optimize "monitoring equipment" and "device settings."

    If the camera still does not follow people, please contact ANRAN support at support@anran-cctv.com to verify if your specific hardware version supports automatic motion tracking.

    Question

    How do I enable sound and complete the setup for the ANRAN B04 security camera?

    Answer

    To resolve issues with sound and setup for your ANRAN B04 camera using the ARCCTV app, please follow these steps:

    1. Enabling Sound

    • Live View: Open the camera's live feed in the app and look for the Sound icon (speaker icon). Tap it to turn the sound from the camera on or off.
    • Intercom/Microphone: To speak through the camera, press and hold the Intercom or Microphone icon. Note that some models may not support two-way audio if the hardware is not present.

    2. Setup Guidance

    • App Installation: Download the ARCCTV app from the Google Play Store or Apple App Store and register an account.
    • Connection: Power on the camera. In the app, click the "+" icon and select "Other ways to add," then "LAN scan" if the camera is on the same network, or follow the prompts for "AP mode" by connecting your phone to the camera's hotspot (usually named "IPCSXXXXX").
    • WiFi Configuration: Once connected to the camera's hotspot, go to "Remote View" in the app, select your home WiFi network, and enter your password. The camera will announce "Wireless Connection Successfully" when finished.

    If you still hear no sound, ensure the camera's volume is not muted in the device settings within the app and that your mobile phone's media volume is turned up.
