Maintenance

Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your camera.

• Cleaning: Regularly clean the camera lens and the window surface it is mounted on with a soft, dry cloth to prevent dust and smudges from affecting video clarity.
• Software Updates: Check the mobile application periodically for firmware updates. Keeping your camera's software up-to-date ensures access to the latest features and security enhancements.
• SD Card Management: If using a Micro SD card, consider formatting it periodically (e.g., every few months) through the app to maintain performance and prevent data corruption. Back up any important footage before formatting.
• Power Supply: Ensure the camera is connected to a stable power source. Avoid using damaged cables or adapters.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your camera, refer to the following common solutions:

• Camera Not Connecting to Wi-Fi:
  • Ensure your Wi-Fi network is 2.4GHz. The camera does not support 5GHz networks.
  • Verify your Wi-Fi password is entered correctly in the app.
  • Move the camera closer to your Wi-Fi router to improve signal strength.
  • Restart your router and the camera.
• No Video Feed:
  • Check if the camera is properly powered on and the power indicator light is active.
  • Confirm your smartphone has a stable internet connection.
  • Restart the camera and force close/reopen the app.
• SD Card Not Recording or Formatting Issues:
  • Ensure the Micro SD card is inserted correctly.
  • Use a high-quality Micro SD card (Class 10 or higher recommended).
  • If formatting takes too long, remove and reinsert the card, then restart the app and try again.
  • Try a different Micro SD card to rule out card defects.
• Frequent False Motion Alerts:
  • Adjust the motion detection sensitivity settings in the app.
  • Define specific detection zones to exclude areas with frequent non-human movement (e.g., trees swaying, street traffic).
• App Performance Issues / Ads:
  • Ensure your app is updated to the latest version.
  • If ads are disruptive, consider using an SD card for local storage instead of relying solely on cloud services that might be tied to ad-supported free tiers.
