Before Installation
- This product may require cabling. It is highly recommended that all products and components be tested prior to installation.
- Fully charge your cameras overnight using the USB charger cable before installation.
- We don't recommend you set the camera to record continuously (24/7) because doing so may quickly deplete the battery (even on solar charging). We recommend you set it to record only when motion is detected. For how long does your battery last before it drains, refer to FAQ at the end of this manual.

1. Go to Recording Mode (Right click the mouse > Camera Setup > Recording Mode), select Best Recording. Do not use Keep Recording! (Page 16) 2. Check the daily triggered alarm messages via the app (Event > Alarm Message). If there are too many false alarms, lower the motion sensitivity via Intelligent Detection Alarm Settings. 3. Check the signal strength of the camera. If the signal is too weak, try changing the camera position, fine tune the camera antenna, or set up the Auto Repeater to improve the signal transmission. (FAQ - How to boost the camera's WiFi signal?)

Question: The night vision of my camera is terrible?
Answer:
- Make sure not to aim your camera towards something in front of the lens.
- Do not face the camera towards glass, mirror, etc.
- Do not face the camera lens towards direct lamps or sunlight.
- Use ambient lamp to increase the lighting level.
Question: My camera is getting misty inside, is there a known fix?
Answer: This is probably because of condensation, which occurs in a humid environment as a result of the difference of the temperatures of the air and the object on which it occurs. In most cases it will clear up itself. However, if the condensation remains, you may send it back for replacement, please contact us immediately.
