4. Operating Instructions

4.1 Continuous Recording and Power Management

The Ebitcam RBX-S60 is designed for 24/7 continuous recording, powered by its 20W solar panel and 15000mAh battery. However, to conserve power, if the battery level drops below 30%, the camera will automatically switch from continuous recording to event-based recording (triggered by motion).

4.2 Pan and Tilt Control

Utilize the UBox app to remotely control the camera's viewing angle. The camera supports 355° horizontal rotation (pan) and 100° vertical rotation (tilt), allowing you to monitor a wide area.

4.3 Color Night Vision

The camera provides 2K resolution color night vision. To enable color night vision, you must manually activate the spotlight feature within the UBox application. Without the spotlight, the camera will operate in standard infrared black and white night vision.

4.4 PIR Motion Sensor and Alerts

The integrated Passive Infrared (PIR) motion sensor detects movement by sensing changes in heat signatures, minimizing false alerts from non-human objects. When motion is detected, the camera can:

• Send instant notifications to your smartphone via the UBox app.
• Activate a siren (if enabled).
• Turn on a spotlight (if enabled, for color night vision or deterrence).

5. Maintenance

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your Ebitcam RBX-S60 camera.

• Solar Panel Cleaning: Periodically wipe the solar panel surface with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust, dirt, or debris that may obstruct sunlight and reduce charging efficiency.
• Camera Lens Cleaning: Gently clean the camera lens with a microfiber cloth to ensure clear image quality. Avoid abrasive materials.
• Battery Monitoring: Monitor the battery level via the UBox app. Ensure the solar panel receives adequate sunlight to keep the battery charged, especially for continuous recording.
• Firmware Updates: Check the UBox app regularly for any available firmware updates. Keeping the firmware updated can improve performance and add new features.
• Physical Inspection: Periodically check the mounting hardware for tightness and inspect cables for any signs of wear or damage.

6. Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your Ebitcam RBX-S60 camera, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

6.1 Camera Not Connecting to App / Offline

• Check 4G LTE Signal: Ensure the camera is in an area with sufficient 4G LTE cellular coverage. Signal strength can vary.
• SIM Card Status: Verify the ELOTCLUB SIM card is correctly inserted and has active data. Check data balance via the ELOTCLUB service if possible.
• Battery Level: A low battery can affect connectivity. Ensure the solar panel is clean and receiving direct sunlight.
• Restart Camera: Power cycle the camera by turning it off and on, or by pressing the reset button if accessible.
• App Issues: Ensure your UBox app is updated to the latest version. Try restarting the app or your smartphone.

6.2 Recording Issues (No Recording or Event-Only Recording)

• Battery Level: If the battery is below 30%, the camera automatically switches to event-based recording. Ensure adequate solar charging.
• SD Card: If using an SD card, ensure it is correctly inserted, not full, and not corrupted. Format the SD card via the app if necessary (this will erase all data).
• Cloud Storage: If relying on cloud storage, verify your subscription status and internet connectivity.

6.3 False Motion Alerts or Missed Detections

• PIR Sensitivity: Adjust the PIR motion sensor sensitivity settings within the UBox app. High sensitivity can lead to false alerts from environmental factors.
• Camera Placement: Ensure the camera is not pointed directly at moving foliage, reflective surfaces, or areas with frequent temperature changes that could trigger the PIR sensor.
• Obstructions: Clear any physical obstructions in the camera's field of view.

6.4 Poor Image Quality

• Clean Lens: Clean the camera lens as described in the Maintenance section.
• Resolution Settings: Ensure the video resolution is set to 2K in the UBox app.
• Night Vision: For color night vision, ensure the spotlight is activated in the app.
