Operating Instructions

Powering On/Off

Locate the Power ON/OFF switch on the side of the WiFi transmitter box to turn the device on or off.

Adjusting LED Brightness

The endoscope features 6 adjustable blue LED lights. Use the "LED+" and "LED-" controls on the WiFi transmitter box to increase or decrease the brightness, optimizing visibility in various lighting conditions.

Capturing Images and Videos

The 1200P HD camera allows you to record clear close-range HD videos in MP4 format and capture snapshot images in JPG format. The application supports four adjustable resolutions: 320x240, 640x480, 1280x720, and 1600x1200. Select the desired resolution within the app settings.

Using Attachments

The endoscope comes with three useful attachments: a hook, a magnet, and a mirror. To attach them, gently remove the protective trim ring at the front of the camera tip, then thread on the desired accessory. The hook and magnet are useful for retrieving small objects, while the mirror provides a side view for inspecting hard-to-reach angles.

Optimal Observation Distance

For the clearest image, the best observation distance for the camera is between 1.18 inches and 3.94 inches (3cm-8cm).

Advanced Camera Technology

The endoscope incorporates a second-generation camera chip, providing a smooth video experience at 30 frames per second (fps). This is a significant improvement over older models, reducing image freeze and enhancing clarity.

The unique blue LED technology helps to greatly improve image brightness and clarity, even in dark or low-light conditions, by reducing image over-exposure and exhibiting remarkable color effects.

Maintenance

  • Cleaning: After each use, especially in dirty or wet environments, gently wipe the camera lens and cable with a soft, damp cloth. Ensure no debris remains on the lens for optimal image clarity.
  • Storage: Store the endoscope and its accessories in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures. Coil the cable loosely to prevent kinks or damage.
  • Waterproofing: While the camera tip is IP67 waterproof, the WiFi transmitter box is not. Avoid submerging the transmitter box in water or exposing it to excessive moisture.

Troubleshooting

  • Cannot connect to WiFi: Ensure the endoscope's WiFi module is powered on and fully charged. Verify that you have selected the correct WiFi network (e.g., "Jetson_******") and entered the correct password. Try turning off your device's cellular data temporarily, as this can sometimes interfere with the connection.
  • Poor image quality or blurry view: Check the distance between the camera lens and the object; the optimal observation range is 1.18-3.94 inches (3cm-8cm). Adjust the LED brightness using the controls on the WiFi box. Ensure the camera lens is clean and free of debris.
  • Attachments not threading onto the camera: Ensure you have removed the small protective trim ring from the camera tip before attempting to attach the hook, magnet, or mirror. The attachments are designed to thread directly onto the camera body once this ring is removed.
  • App crashes or freezes: Ensure your device's operating system is up to date. Try restarting the app or reinstalling it. Close other background applications that might be consuming resources.
