Setup Guide

1. Charging the Camera

Before initial use, ensure your camera is fully charged. The wireless rechargeable battery offers 1 to 6 months of operation on a single charge, depending on usage and motion detection frequency.

2. App Installation and Pairing

To control and monitor your camera, download the Vicohome app from your device's app store (compatible with iOS and Android devices).

1. Turn on the Camera: Locate the power button on the camera and press it to turn on the device.
2. Follow App Prompts: Open the Vicohome app and select 'Add Camera Now'. Follow the on-screen instructions, which will guide you to confirm you hear a beeping sound from the camera and then scan a QR code displayed on your phone with the camera's lens to establish a connection.

3. Installation Location

The camera is designed for easy installation almost anywhere, thanks to its wireless nature. Consider the following for optimal performance:

• Wi-Fi Signal Strength: Ensure the installation location has a stable 2.4GHz Wi-Fi signal. This camera is not compatible with 5GHz Wi-Fi.
• Motion Detection: For best results, position the camera where movement travels across its field of view. People traveling directly toward or away from the camera may not trigger motion alerts as quickly.
• Height and Angle: For optimal detection, mount the camera approximately 2 meters (6.5 feet) high and point it downwards at a 10° to 15° angle. The camera effectively detects motion between 1.5 to 6 meters (5 to 20 feet) from its installed position.

The camera's wireless design allows for flexible placement and easy installation.

Operating Your Camera

Live View and Resolution

Access the live feed from your camera anytime, anywhere via the Vicohome app. You can switch between 2K (high definition) and SD (standard definition) resolutions based on your network conditions. 2K resolution provides stunning clarity and vibrant detail, while SD mode uses less bandwidth, which can be useful for weaker Wi-Fi signals.

Experience clear 2K HD resolution and full-color night vision for comprehensive monitoring.

AI Motion Detection

Equipped with advanced AI motion detection, the camera can accurately identify specific objects such as people, vehicles, pets, and packages. The PIR sensor instantly triggers recording and sends real-time notifications to your phone when motion is detected within defined alert zones.

Advanced AI recognition helps differentiate between various types of motion for more accurate alerts.

Two-Way Audio

The built-in speaker and microphone enable seamless two-way communication through your mobile phone. This allows you to speak to visitors, delivery personnel, or even deter unwanted individuals directly through the camera.

Engage in real-time conversations with anyone near your camera using the two-way audio function.

Spotlight and Siren

Enhance your security with the integrated spotlight and siren. When motion is detected, you can activate the flashing white lights and a loud siren from the app to deter potential intruders or unwanted visitors.

The spotlight and siren provide an active deterrent against suspicious activity.

Storage Options

The camera supports dual storage options for your recorded footage:

• Local Storage: A 32GB Micro SD card is included, allowing for local storage of recordings. The camera supports up to 128GB Micro SD cards.
• Cloud Storage: Enjoy free 3-day rolling cloud storage. A 30-day trial of premium cloud features, including enhanced cloud memory and AI recognition, is also available.

Maintenance

Battery Management

The camera is powered by a rechargeable Lithium Ion battery. Monitor the battery level through the Vicohome app and recharge as needed. Battery life can vary from 1 to 6 months depending on factors such as motion detection frequency, live view usage, and temperature.

Weatherproof Design

With an IP65 weatherproof rating, your VKfoy camera is designed to withstand various weather conditions, including rain, snow, and sun. This ensures reliable outdoor performance year-round.

The IP65 weatherproof rating ensures durability and reliable operation in all weather conditions.

Troubleshooting

• Wi-Fi Connectivity Issues: Ensure your camera is connected to a 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network. This camera does not support 5GHz Wi-Fi. Verify that the camera is within range of your Wi-Fi router and has a strong signal. If the signal is weak, consider relocating the camera or using a Wi-Fi extender.
• Video Lagging or Poor Quality: If you experience lagging or low-quality video in 2K resolution, your network bandwidth might be insufficient. Try switching the recording resolution to SD (Standard Definition) in the app's video settings.
• Motion Detection Not Triggering: Check the camera's installation angle and height as described in the Setup Guide. Ensure the motion detection sensitivity is set appropriately in the app. Define custom alert zones to focus detection on specific areas.
• Features Requiring Subscription: Be aware that while basic functionalities are free, some advanced features, such as extended cloud storage or enhanced AI recognition, may require a paid subscription after the initial trial period.
• Camera Unresponsive: If the camera becomes unresponsive, try restarting it by pressing and holding the power button. Ensure the battery is charged.
