4.2 App Installation
Download the companion mobile application from your device's app store (e.g., "CloudEdge" or similar, refer to package for exact app name). Follow the on-screen instructions to create an account and log in.
4.3 Connecting to Wi-Fi
Ensure your Wi-Fi network is 2.4GHz. The camera does not support 5GHz Wi-Fi during the configuration process. Follow the in-app instructions to connect your camera to your home Wi-Fi network. This typically involves scanning a QR code displayed on your phone with the camera lens.

7. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Camera won't connect to Wi-Fi. | Incorrect Wi-Fi band (5GHz), weak signal, incorrect password. | Ensure you are connecting to a 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network. Move the camera closer to the router. Double-check Wi-Fi password. |
| Short battery life. | Frequent motion detections, low sunlight for solar panel, cold weather. | Adjust PIR sensitivity to reduce unnecessary recordings. Ensure solar panel receives direct sunlight. Charge manually if needed. Battery performance can be affected by extreme cold. |
| False motion alerts. | PIR sensitivity too high, environmental factors (e.g., swaying branches, insects). | Lower the PIR sensitivity in the app. Adjust camera angle to exclude areas with frequent non-human motion. |
| Poor image quality. | Dirty lens, low light, network issues. | Clean the camera lens. Ensure adequate lighting for optimal daytime video. Check Wi-Fi signal strength. |
