NOTE:
If a moving object approaches the PIR sensor vertically, the camera may fail
to detect motion.

For more detailed FAQs, please log in to the APP, search in “Me”-“EAQ”-“Help Document”-“Battery Camera
The device prompts offline.
- Check whether the equipment is in the poweron state, and observe whether the working light of the equipment is on normally;
- Confirm that the current location has good wifi coverage and the network is stable, make sure that the wifi signal is above 75%;
- You can try to use the third-party wifi analysis tool “wifi analyzer” to analyze the current wifi signal coverage and interference status. If the coverage is poor and the interference is large, it is recommended to replace the camera installation position or adjust the router position or use a second-stage router;
- Avoid using wifi extenders.
Update router or Wi-Fi password?
Delete the camera from your CloudEdge account. After resetting the device, use
the new Wi-Fi and password to add it again.
Will not connect to WiFi?
- The wifi currently connected to the mobile phone is a 2.4Ghz network; The current location has good wifi coverage and a stable network (wifi signal is greater than 75%);
- Avoid using wifi extender;
- Check whether the wifi password is entered correctly;
It cannot be ruled out that in the rare case of special network incompatibility, the App and the camera cannot be connected correctly. In this case, our camera is not compatible, please contact the after-sales service first. (service@iegeek.com).
Fast power consumption?
- In the case of poor wifi coverage (such as signal is below 75%), which will increase power consumption;
- The PIR trigger frequency is high, and the power consumption will increase when infrared light/ white light is on at night;
- The mobile phone often accesses the camera remotely, which will increase power consumption;
- For the first use, it’s recommended to use the power to 10%, and then charge it to 100%, which is helpful for the health of the lithium battery.
camera not detecting movement?
- In the case of an unstable network, the message may not be pushed in time after the PIR is triggered. In this case, you can first confirm the network status and remove the camera to verify and confirm in an environment with good network coverage;
- An inappropriate installation position will result in PIR not triggering and not detecting. If the position is too high, the object is too far away, or the object is too small, the camera will not trigger, try to adjust the installation position according to the trigger requirements many times.
SD card not recognized?
- Support capacity is 16-128GB micro SD card;
- Before use, make sure to format the micro SD card as FAT32 or exFAT file system on the computer, then insert it into the camera, and finally perform the format memory card operation on the camera again;
- If the micro SD card is not recognized during use, it is generally a quality problem of the micro SD card, and it is necessary to replace the memory card with more stable reading and writing.
