FAQ and Troubleshooting

1. The camera is very hot while charging?
   It’s normal for our camera to feel hot during charging due to the energy conversion process. To ensure safe operation, our product is designed with effective heat dissipation vents. Please rest assured that these features are in place to manage temperature efficiently, so there’s no need to be concerned about this natural occurrence.
2. Why does the battery drain quickly?
   a. The battery may not be fully saturated during the initial use, so make sure to charge it fully before use.
   b. When the network connection is unstable, the device may need to be restarted regularly to communicate with the server normally, which will accelerate the consumption of battery.
3. What are the requirements for phones and networks for the product?
   The application supports all versions of Android and Apple operating systems. The camera only supports 2.4G WiFi networks and does not support 5G WiFi networks.
4. Why does the camera’s recorded video appear pink?
   The main issue lies in the spectrum of the light source. Different types of light sources (such as incandescent bulbs, fluorescent lights, LEDs, etc.) have different spectral characteristics. This can cause the camera’s sensor to improperly process the spectrum of specific light sources, resulting in color deviations in the image, manifesting as pink. We suggest changing the camera’s placement.

Tips for Camera Placement

• Do not face the camera towards any light sources
• Do not point the camera towards a glass window. Or, it may result in poor image performance because of the window glare by infrared LEDs, ambient lights or status lights.
• Do not place the camera in a shaded area and point it towards a well-lit area. Or, it may result in poor image performance.
• For better image quality, please make sure that the lighting condition for both the camera and the capture object is the same. For better image quality, it’s recommended to clean the lens with a soft cloth from time to time.
• Make sure the power ports are not exposed to water or moisture or blocked by dirt or other elements.
