Operating Instructions
Live View and Monitoring
Once connected, you can monitor your camera feed anytime via the Vimtag mobile app or PC client. The F3.6mm 2MP lens with smart H.264 video encoding ensures smooth 1080P Ultra HD streaming even with lower internet speeds.
Two-Way Audio
Utilize the built-in microphone and speaker for two-way communication. This allows you to listen to the environment around the camera and speak through the camera from your mobile device.
Motion Detection and Siren

Night Vision with LED Floodlight
The unique inbuilt LED floodlight provides clear night vision up to 32 feet. When motion is detected, the floodlight can automatically switch on, providing full-color video display even in complete darkness, unlike traditional infrared night vision which typically provides black and white images.
