  1. Power On/Off:

    To power on, press and hold the power button for 3 seconds. The indicator light will turn on. To power off, press and hold the power button for 5 seconds. The indicator light will flash and then turn off.

  2. Recording Modes:
    Image illustrating two recording modes: motion detection and continuous recording with day/night vision.

    Image: This image displays the two primary recording modes: motion detection, shown with a person in a room, and continuous recording, illustrating day and night vision capabilities.

    • Motion Detection Recording (Mode 'M'):

      Slide the mode switch to position 'M'. Press and hold the power button for 3 seconds. The red indicator light will turn on, indicating standby mode. When motion is detected, the red indicator light will flash 3 times and then turn off, initiating motion detection recording. Recording stops when motion ceases, and the device returns to standby.

    • Continuous Loop Recording (Mode 'L'):

      Slide the mode switch to position 'L'. Press and hold the power button for 3 seconds. The blue indicator light will turn on, indicating standby mode. Press the power button once. The blue indicator light will flash 3 times and then turn off, initiating continuous loop recording. The device will record continuously, overwriting the oldest files when the Micro SD card is full.

  3. Stopping Recording:

    During any recording mode, press the power button once to stop recording. The video file will be saved, and the camera will return to standby mode (indicator light on).

  4. Taking Photos (Mode 'L'):

    Slide the mode switch to position 'L'. Press and hold the power button for 3 seconds to enter standby mode (blue indicator light on). Press the power button twice quickly. The blue indicator light will flash once, indicating a photo has been captured and saved.

  5. Gravity Sensor Feature:

    The camera is equipped with an intelligent gravity sensor. This feature ensures that your video recordings are always oriented correctly, regardless of how the power bank camera is positioned (e.g., upright, inverted, or sideways). The video output will automatically adjust to maintain a vertical orientation.

  6. Automatic Night Vision:

    The camera automatically activates night vision in low-light conditions, allowing for clear recordings up to 2 meters in the dark. No manual adjustment is required for this feature.

  1. Connect to PC via USB:

    Connect the power bank camera to your computer using the provided USB cable, ensuring you use the USB data port (Port 1) on the camera. The device will be recognized as a removable disk. You can then browse and play the video files directly from the Micro SD card.

  2. Use a Micro SD Card Reader:

    Remove the Micro SD card from the camera and insert it into a card reader. Connect the card reader to your computer. Access the files on the Micro SD card to view your recordings.

Maintenance

  • Keep the device dry and away from moisture.
  • Avoid extreme temperatures.
  • Clean the lens gently with a soft, dry cloth to ensure clear video quality.
  • Do not attempt to disassemble or modify the device, as this will void the warranty.
  • Regularly back up important recordings from the Micro SD card to prevent data loss.

Troubleshooting

Device not turning on:
Ensure the device is fully charged. If the issue persists, try pressing the reset button with a thin object.
No recording or corrupted files:
Check if a Micro SD card is properly inserted and has sufficient free space. Ensure the card is formatted correctly (FAT32). Try using a different, high-quality Micro SD card. Verify that the date and time file is correctly configured.
Indicator lights are confusing:
Refer to the 'Operating Instructions' section for detailed explanations of indicator light behavior for each mode. The red light typically indicates motion detection mode, and the blue light indicates loop recording/photo mode.
Video orientation is incorrect:
The intelligent gravity sensor should automatically correct video orientation. If you experience persistent issues, ensure the device is stable during recording. A factory reset might also help.
Difficulty aiming the camera:
Since the camera does not have Wi-Fi or a live view function, precise aiming requires practice. It is recommended to perform short test recordings in your desired location to adjust the camera's position before extended use.
Recordings are split into short segments (e.g., every 5 minutes):
This is a normal function of loop recording, where video files are saved in segments to prevent data loss in case of power failure and to manage file sizes. The device will automatically stitch these segments together when viewed on a computer.
