Figure 5.2: Overview of the three connection methods for the camera.

  1. Plug & Play (No WiFi Network): Insert a Micro SD card (up to 128GB, not included) into the device. The camera will automatically begin recording to the card. You can then transfer the card to a computer to view recordings.
  2. AP Mode (No WiFi Network): The camera generates its own Wi-Fi hotspot. Connect your smartphone directly to this hotspot to view live footage within a short range. This mode does not require an internet connection.
  3. Remote Access (Requires WiFi Network): Connect the camera to your home or office 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network using the "Lookcam" app. Scan the QR code provided in the app to configure the connection. Once connected, you can view live video and recordings remotely from anywhere in the world via Wi-Fi or mobile data.

If the Wi-Fi connection fails, try resetting the device and attempting to connect again. Refer to the app's instructions for detailed steps on Wi-Fi configuration.

6. Operating Instructions

6.1 Live View and Recording

Once connected via the "Lookcam" app, you can access a clear and sharp 1080P real-time video stream. The camera records in HD 1080P with a 150° wide-angle view. You can remotely stream videos and download both videos and photos directly to your smart device.
