Hardware Installation

1. Connect the power supply

Connect the included AC/DC adapter to plug into the electricity outlet/socket, then connect it to the camera.

2. Connect the Ethernet cable

It’s recommended to use the Ethernet wired connection when firstly setup the camera (if Ethernet port is available on your camera), especially if you failed to setup the camera via WiFi. Connecting the camera to the router with the network cable.

Note – The Ethernet cable is not required after the camera’s Network Settings have been changed to WiFi

3. Reset the camera

If you want to setup the WiFi connection instead of using wired Ethernet cable, you should reset the camera at the beginning of configuration. Using a shape object (e.g. toothpick) to press the reset button up to 10 seconds, release it until you hear a “Sou” tone. Once the camera keeps making “di, di, di” sound, then you can start to add the camera via ‘Smartlink’.

Note – The camera only supports 2.4GHz WiFi, can’t support 5GHz. Making sure the WiFi SSID has no special character, also DHCP function should be enabled in your router.
