Camera Adjustment
Adjusting Your Camera: A User’s Insight
Alter your camera’s perspective without the hassle of ascending a ladder; it’s efficient and straightforward. From a computer, smartphone, or tablet, you can modify the camera’s viewing angle. Once positioned and directed to your desired focal point, zoom adjustments are just a click away. At its broadest, a 2.7mm setting, you’ll enjoy a panoramic 100-degree view. Zooming in fully at 13.5mm narrows the view to 20 degrees, extending the infrared range to 150ft. Notably, the lens auto-focuses for convenience.
Camera’s Control
PTZ Control:
By simply gliding your fingers across your phone screen, manipulate the camera
to tilt, pan, zoom in, or out, accessing any view you desire. With its
impressive 70° lens angle coupled with a rotation range of 320° horizontally
and 90° vertically, this IP camera offers nearly 360° of panoramic viewing.
The intuitive app interface provides granular control, moving the camera
incrementally with each gesture.

Product Components and Description
- Antenna: Ensures stable wireless communication, crucial for transmitting real-time camera feeds to devices and control centers.
- High-Quality Metal Case: Provides a sturdy and durable exterior that protects the internal components from external factors, ensuring the camera’s longevity. It also adds an additional layer of security by being tamper-resistant.
- CMOS Sensor: Acts as the camera’s eye. A CMOS sensor captures light and converts it into electronic signals to produce clear and sharp images. It’s an essential component for ensuring high-definition video quality.
- Microphone: Allows the camera to pick up and transmit audio. This feature is vital for scenarios where audio evidence or two-way communication is necessary.
- 3.6mm Fixed Lens: A standard lens size that offers a balance between a wide field of view and detail capture. Ideal for general surveillance purposes.
- 8pcs LED: Typically used for night vision capabilities. These LEDs emit infrared light, illuminating the camera’s surroundings in low-light conditions without being visible to the naked eye.
- Power Port: The input point for the camera’s power source. Whether it’s a direct electrical connection or a battery input, this component ensures the camera remains operational.
- Ethernet Port: Enables a wired internet connection for the camera. This is especially useful for setups that require a more stable connection than wireless options, or for Power over Ethernet (PoE) functionalities.
- Reset Button: A failsafe measure. In the event of software glitches or if the user forgets their settings/password, this button can reset the camera to its factory default settings.
How to Install an SD Card in Your Camera
Follow this straightforward guide to successfully insert an SD card into your camera. Please note that the camera supports up to 128GB, but the SD card is not included with the camera purchase.
- Open the Cover:
- Locate the SD card slot on your camera. It’s typically on the side or bottom of the device.
- Gently open the protective cover that shields the SD card slot. Some cameras might have a slide or push mechanism, so ensure you’re opening it correctly to avoid any damage.
- Install the SD Card:
- Hold the SD card by its edges, ensuring that the label side is facing up.
- Carefully align the card’s metal contacts with the slot and gently slide the SD card into the slot until it clicks into place. Make sure to insert it in the right orientation, as forcing it can damage both the card and the slot.
- Close the Cover:
