- The camera only works with 2.4G Wi-Fi; it does not support 5G Wi-Fi.
An image shows the ZUMIMALL GX1C camera. Text '2.4G ONLY' is displayed. A screenshot shows the ZUMIMALL app interface with connected devices.
5.2 Connect Camera to App
Follow these steps to connect your camera to the ZUMIMALL app:
- Tap '+' to add a new device.
- Select 'Battery Camera'.
- Tap 'Next'.
- Reset the device by holding the RESET button for 4-5 seconds until the indicator light flashes red. Tap 'Next'.
- Input your Wi-Fi password for a 2.4G network.
- Prepare for scanning: Remove lens film and place the phone 5-8 inches from the camera.
- Scan the QR code displayed on your phone with the camera when the indicator light is flashing slowly in red.
- The app will show 'Device Found', 'Connecting...', and 'Registering device...'.
- Ensure the camera and phone are close to the router for the best signal.
- Installation is finished when the connection reaches 100%.
Screenshots guide the user through adding a device, selecting 'Battery Camera', resetting the device, inputting Wi-Fi details, preparing for scanning, scanning the QR code, and the connection progress.
6. Camera Installation
- For wooden walls, screw the bracket directly onto the wall.
- For cement or ceramic tile walls, drill holes and fasten with provided expansion screws.
To detach the camera from the bracket, rotate the button counterclockwise.
A diagram shows how to mount the camera bracket on a wall, with a detail showing a 360° rotation adjustment for the camera.
7. Monitoring Area
Adjust the camera so the angle between the PIR lens and moving objects is greater than 10 degrees. It is not recommended to position the PIR sensor vertically towards moving objects.
Diagrams illustrate the recommended monitoring angle. One shows a camera at an entrance with a moving object, indicating an angle θ > 10°. Another shows a camera detecting a person walking, highlighting the importance of the angle and avoiding direct vertical alignment of the PIR sensor.
8. Important Notes for Reducing False Alarms
To minimize false alarms, please observe the following:
- Avoid installing the camera facing strong lights, mirrors, windows, or swimming pools.
- Do not place the camera too close to areas with busy traffic.
- The recommended detection distance for motion objects is within 10 meters (32ft).
- Stay away from outlets such as air conditioner vents, humidifier outlets, and projector heat transfer vents.
- Keep the camera at least 1 meter away from other wireless devices (e.g., microwave ovens, Wi-Fi routers) to prevent interference.
