5.2 Motion Detection & Alerts
The camera features advanced PIR motion detection and AI human detection to minimize false alarms. You can customize detection sensitivity and set specific alarm areas within the app. When motion is detected, you will receive instant notifications on your phone.
- Detection Sensitivity: Adjust the sensitivity level (1-10) to suit your environment.
- Alarm Area: Define specific zones within the camera's view where motion detection should be active. This helps focus on critical areas and ignore irrelevant movements (e.g., pets).
- Alarm Plan: Set specific time periods for the alarm to be active (e.g., only at night).

5.4 Night Vision & Spotlights
The camera provides both infrared (black and white) and color night vision. The 500-Lumen LED spotlights activate upon motion detection, illuminating the area and enabling full-color recording even in low-light conditions. This also serves as a strong deterrent for intruders.

Figure 11: Infrared Mode (spotlight off) provides black and white night vision, while Color Mode (spotlight on) provides full-color night vision.
5.5 Storage (SD Card/Cloud)
The camera supports two storage methods for recorded events:
- Memory Card: Insert a Micro SD card (up to 128GB, not included) into the designated slot on the camera for local storage.
- Cloud Storage: Utilize the optional cloud storage service (30-day trial available) for remote backup of your recordings. This ensures your data is safe even if the camera is damaged or stolen.
By default, the camera records 6-second clips for each motion event. You can adjust the recording duration and settings within the app.

6. Maintenance
6.1 Solar Charging
The solar panel continuously charges the camera's internal battery. Ensure the solar panel is kept clean and free from obstructions (e.g., leaves, dirt) to maximize charging efficiency. Even on cloudy days, the panel will provide some charge, but direct sunlight is ideal for full power.
6.2 Cleaning
Periodically clean the camera lens and solar panel with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and debris. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could scratch the surfaces.
6.3 Weather Resistance
The camera has an IP65 waterproof rating, making it resistant to dust and water jets. It is designed to operate in a wide temperature range from -40F to 1220F (-200C to 500C). While robust, extreme weather conditions may temporarily affect performance.
