4. PIR Human Detection
The camera uses Passive Infrared (PIR) technology to detect human movement. When motion is detected, the camera will record and send notifications to your Ubox app. Adjust sensitivity settings in the app to optimize detection and reduce false alarms.
5. Night Vision Modes
The camera supports color night vision. In low-light conditions, the camera automatically switches to night vision mode. You can configure settings in the Ubox app to enable or disable color night vision based on your preference.
6. Recording and Playback
The camera records video clips when motion is detected. These recordings are stored on the Micro SD card or in the cloud (if subscribed). Access and play back recorded events through the Ubox app's "Playback" section.
7. 4G LTE Data Plan
The camera requires a data plan for its 4G LTE SIM card to function. A trial SIM card with 300MB of data is included. After the trial, you will need to purchase a data plan from EIOTCLUB or another compatible provider. Ensure your data plan is active for continuous surveillance.
