Setup

1. Charge the Camera: Before first use, fully charge the camera using the provided USB cable and a standard 5V USB power adapter. The charging indicator light will change color or turn off when fully charged.
2. Insert TF Card (Optional): For local video storage, insert a compatible TF (microSD) card (up to 256GB, not included) into the designated slot. Ensure the card is inserted correctly.
3. Download the App: Search for and download the 'O-Kam' application from your smartphone's app store (available for Android and iOS).
4. Power On: Press and hold the power button until the indicator light illuminates.
5. Connect to Wi-Fi:
   • Open the O-Kam app and follow the on-screen instructions to add a new device.
   • Select your camera model.
   • The app will guide you through connecting the camera to your 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network. Ensure your phone is connected to the same 2.4GHz network during setup.
   • Place the camera near your Wi-Fi router during the initial connection process for optimal signal strength.

Recording Modes

• Continuous Recording: If a TF card is inserted, the camera can be configured via the app to record continuously. When the card is full, the oldest footage will be overwritten (loop recording).
• PIR Motion Detection Recording: The camera features an upgraded PIR (Passive Infrared) sensor that detects human movement. When motion is detected, the camera will:
  • Send instant alerts to your smartphone.
  • Record video clips of the event.
  • Upload motion-triggered videos to free cloud storage (3-day cycle).

Night Vision

The camera automatically activates night vision mode in low-light conditions, capturing clear black and white video up to 26 feet away. The infrared lights are designed to be invisible, preventing obvious red glows found in older technology.

Battery Management

The built-in 3000mAh rechargeable lithium battery provides extended operation. In low-power consumption mode, the battery can last 7-20 days depending on PIR trigger frequency, and up to 100 days in deep sleep standby mode. Continuous recording will consume battery faster.

Maintenance

• Charging: Recharge the camera when the battery level is low. Use the provided USB cable and a compatible 5V power adapter.
• TF Card Management: Regularly check the TF card status via the app. Format the card periodically to maintain optimal performance and free up space.
• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the camera lens and body. Avoid using liquid cleaners or abrasive materials.
