Set Up The System
Initial Calibration Process
Diagram: Camera shown performing a pan-tilt calibration check, moving horizontally and vertically.
Once powered on, the device will initiate a calibration process. During this, the indicator light will turn on, and the camera will conduct a pan-tilt check, moving both horizontally and vertically before aligning to the center position.
Diagram: Camera shown with a slow red flashing indicator light. Text indicates 'Waiting to Connect'.
Within approximately 30 seconds, a slow red flash on the indicator light signals that the camera is operational and ready to connect, accompanied by a voice prompt 'Waiting to Connect'.
❗ Note:
- For non-initial setups, press and hold the [Reset button] for 5 seconds until you hear a 'cuckoo' sound and a voice prompt saying 'Resetting, please wait'. This will initiate the recalibration process. Once the recalibration is complete, you can proceed with the Wi-Fi connection by following the steps outlined in the 'SET UP THE SYSTEM' section.
- Do not manually adjust the pan-tilt after power-on to avoid malfunctions. If app control of pan-tilt is unresponsive, reboot the camera to enable auto-calibration to the default orientation, aligning its front opposite the Type C port. Then control through the app.
