7. Troubleshooting
7.1 Battery Drains Quickly
- Solar Panel Placement: Ensure the solar panel receives direct sunlight for several hours daily. Adjust its angle if necessary.
- Motion Detection Frequency: High frequency of motion events can consume more battery. Adjust motion detection sensitivity and set specific activity zones or schedules to reduce unnecessary recordings.
- Cold Weather: Battery efficiency decreases in cold temperatures. Ensure optimal solar charging during colder months.
7.2 Wi-Fi Connectivity Issues
- 2.4Ghz Network: Confirm your router is broadcasting a 2.4Ghz Wi-Fi signal and your camera is connected to it. The camera does not support 5Ghz Wi-Fi.
- Signal Strength: Ensure the camera is within range of your Wi-Fi router. Obstacles like thick walls can weaken the signal. Consider using a Wi-Fi extender if the signal is weak.
- Re-pairing: If connection issues persist, try resetting the camera and re-pairing it with the CloudEdge app.
7.3 False Motion Alerts
- AI Human Detection: Enable AI Human Detection in the app to filter out non-human movements.
- Adjust Sensitivity: Lower the motion detection sensitivity level.
- Customize Detection Area: Exclude areas with frequent irrelevant movements (e.g., swaying trees, busy roads) from the detection zone.
