4. Operating Instructions
4.1 Live View and Pan/Tilt Control
Once connected, open the app to access the live view. Use the on-screen controls to pan (horizontal movement) and tilt (vertical movement) the camera to monitor different areas within its 360-degree field of view.
4.2 Night Vision Modes
The camera supports two night vision modes:
- Color Night Vision: Activated by the built-in white spotlight, providing full-color footage even in low light.
- Infrared Night Vision: Uses infrared LEDs for clear black-and-white video in complete darkness.

4.3 PIR Motion Detection and Alerts
The Passive Infrared (PIR) sensor detects heat signatures, reducing false alarms from non-human movements. When motion is detected, the camera can:
- Trigger a spotlight alarm.
- Activate a siren alarm.
- Send instant push notifications to your app.
Sensitivity settings can be adjusted in the app to optimize detection.

5.3 Cleaning
Periodically clean the camera lens and solar panel with a soft, damp cloth to ensure optimal performance and clear image quality. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
6. Troubleshooting
- Camera Disconnects from Network: If the camera frequently disconnects, try resetting your Wi-Fi router. Ensure the camera is within range of your 2.4GHz Wi-Fi signal. A Wi-Fi extender may be necessary for larger properties or areas with weak signals.
- Firmware Update Issues: If a firmware update fails or causes the camera to freeze, contact customer service through the app for assistance. They can provide troubleshooting steps or arrange a replacement if necessary.
- Lag in Alerts/Live View: A delay between motion detection and alerts or in live view can be due to Wi-Fi signal strength. Improve Wi-Fi coverage or reduce interference.
- SD Card Not Recording: Ensure the SD card is correctly inserted, formatted within the app, and not full. Check if the recording settings are enabled. If issues persist, the SD card may be faulty.
- False Alarms: Adjust the PIR motion detection sensitivity settings in the app to reduce alerts from non-significant movements like blowing leaves.
- Poor Night Vision: Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from obstructions. Check if the spotlight or infrared LEDs are functioning correctly.
