4.3 Initial Setup Tips
- Ensure all devices are properly powered up and correctly connected.
- The default IP address of the camera is 192.168.1.64, and DHCP is enabled by default. When connected to your router, the camera should automatically be assigned a valid IP address.
- For this value series, unlike Hikvision branded or HITOSINO white label products, ONVIF is enabled by default. When using with a third-party PoE NVR, ensure you know the NVR's built-in IP address and adjust the camera's IP address to the same network segment accordingly. For full functionality, it is recommended to use a HITOSINO or Hikvision NVR.

5. Operating the Camera
5.1 Night Vision Modes
The camera offers three distinct night vision modes to suit various lighting conditions:
- White Light: Provides 24/7 full-color imaging up to 100ft (30m). Ideal for clear, detailed color footage in complete darkness.
- IR Light: Offers crystal clear white and black imaging up to 100ft (30m) using infrared illumination. Suitable for discreet monitoring.
- Smart Dual Light: Intelligently switches between IR and white light. The camera uses IR for general monitoring and activates white light for full-color imaging when human or vehicle motion is detected, capturing crucial details.

5.2 Motion Detection 2.0 (Human & Vehicle Detection)
The camera features advanced Motion Detection 2.0 technology, which intelligently distinguishes between humans and vehicles, significantly reducing false alarms caused by animals, rain, or falling leaves. This ensures you receive accurate and relevant notifications.
- When connected to a HITOSINO/Hikvision NVR, footage is automatically sorted into 'Human' and 'Vehicle' files for quick and efficient searching.

5.3 Active Deterrence (Strobe Light & Audible Alarms)
The camera is equipped with active deterrent features to warn off potential intruders before an incident occurs. When motion is detected, the camera can activate a strobe light and play pre-recorded audio warnings.
- Strobe Light: A bright flashing light designed to startle and deter intruders.
- Audible Alarms: Choose from 11 default warnings or customize your own audio messages to play through the built-in speaker.

7. Troubleshooting
This section addresses common issues you might encounter.
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| No image/video feed | No power; Network cable disconnected; Incorrect IP address; NVR/software issue. | Check power supply/PoE connection. Ensure Ethernet cable is securely connected. Verify camera's IP address is in the same network segment as your NVR/router. Restart camera, NVR, or viewing software. |
| Poor image quality | Dirty lens; Insufficient lighting; Network bandwidth issues; Incorrect settings. | Clean the lens. Ensure adequate lighting for the chosen night vision mode. Check network connection speed. Adjust image settings (e.g., WDR, 3D DNR) in the camera's web interface or NVR. |
| Motion detection not working or too many false alarms | Incorrect detection zone setup; Sensitivity too high/low; Environmental factors. | Adjust motion detection zones to exclude irrelevant areas. Modify sensitivity settings. Ensure Motion Detection 2.0 (Human/Vehicle Detection) is enabled for reduced false alarms. |
| Cannot access camera remotely | Network configuration issues (port forwarding, UPnP); App not configured correctly. | Ensure your router's port forwarding is correctly set up for the camera/NVR, or UPnP is enabled. Verify app settings and account login. Check internet connectivity. |
| Two-way audio not functioning | Microphone/speaker disabled; Volume too low; App permissions. | Check audio settings in the camera's web interface or app to ensure microphone and speaker are enabled and volume is adequate. Grant necessary microphone permissions to the app on your smartphone. |
