9. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Ebarsenc X5 camera, please refer to the following common solutions:

• Camera Not Connecting to WiFi:
  • Ensure your WiFi network is 2.4GHz. The camera does not support 5GHz networks.
  • Place the camera close to your WiFi router during the initial setup.
  • Verify that the WiFi password entered in the app is correct.
  • Reset the camera using the provided pin and attempt the connection process again.
• No Sound/One-Way Audio:
  • The Ebarsenc X5 camera supports one-way audio, meaning you can hear audio from the camera's environment, but there is no two-way talk function.
• SD Card Not Recording:
  • Ensure the Micro SD card is inserted correctly and is not full. The camera supports loop recording, overwriting old files.
  • Format the SD card through the camera settings in the 'YI IoT' app.
  • Check if the recording settings (e.g., 'All time recording' or 'Event recording') are correctly configured in the app.
• Poor Video Quality:
  • Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from dust or smudges.
  • Check your WiFi signal strength. A weak signal can affect video streaming quality.

10. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the camera lens and body. Avoid using liquid cleaners or abrasive materials.
• Storage: When not in use for extended periods, store the camera in a cool, dry place.
• Battery Care: Charge the camera regularly to maintain battery health, especially if it's not continuously powered.
