How to Add a Camera for APP

Before Using

1. Please insert the Micro SD card before power on, otherwise, the SD card can not be detected.
2. Put the camera and smart phone 1-3 ft (30-100 cm)away from the router to set Wi-Fi.
3. Make sure that the camera is using 2.4GHz Wi-Fi.

Wi-Fi Connection Steps

( Note: If it can’t be powered on, please plug in DC 5V 2A power adapter to charge the camera for 15min first)

My camera fails to connect Wi-Fi?

1. Before adding a device, make sure that the device is in the state of slow flashing.red light. If the indicator status is abnormal, please restore the device to factory settings(long press and hold the device RESET button until you hear the ‘boogu’Sound)
2. Please make sure the Wi-Fi the camera connected is 2.4GHz. In our experience, network connection is failed in most cases, which is caused by that users used 5GHz WIFI.
3. Make sure the password correction of the Wi-Fi. (Note; the password of the WiFi cannot include single quote, underline, space and virgule (/).
4. Check the number of the devices your router connected. In general, the router has a connection limits. Once the devices that your router connected excess the its max limit numbers, other devices will cannot connect the router.
5. Make sure the QR code on the phone screen is normal and the distance between the phone and the camera lens is 10-15cm (3.9-5.9inch) during the scanning process.
6. Check the current location has good wifi coverage and a stable network (wifi signal is greater than 80%);
7. Avoid using wifi extenders;
8. After checking the above information, if the camera cannot connect the WiFi, please try to re-download the APP, reset the camera and restart the router, and then add the camera again.
9. If you tried all steps, but still no luck, please message your order and problem to service@iegeek.com.

  • Charging Indicator:
  • Red LED: Charging
  • Blue LED: Fully Charged

Installation Guides

• Install the camera 2-3 meters(7-10 ft) above ground. The detection range of the motion sensor would be maximized at such a height.
• For effective motion detection,please install the camera angularly.

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

Notes on PIR Motion Sensor

• PIR Sensor Detection Range
  • The PIR detection range can be customized to meet your speciffic needs. You may refer to the following table to set it up in Device Settings via CloudEdge App.

Important Notes on Reducing False Alarms

• Do not face the camera towards any objects with bright lights, including sunshine, bright lamp lights, etc.
• Do not place the camera near any outlets, including the air conditioner vents, humidififier outlets, the heat transfer vents of projectors, etc.
• Do not install the camera at places with strong wind.
• Do not face the camera towards a mirror.
• Keep the camera at least l meter away from any wireless devices, including WiFi routers and phones in order to avoid wireless interference.

FAQs

The device prompts ofine?

1. Check whether the equipment is in the power-on state, and observe whether the working light of the equipment is on normally.
2. 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.
3. If the device is located far away from the router, which results in the inability to obtain a good Wi-Fi signal, it is recommended to move the router to a closer place or ensure the Wi-Fi signal strength is to be over than 85% to improve the Wi-Fi performance of the home.
4. Delete the camera from your CloudEdge account and add it again after resetting the device. Check whether the device firmware and application program are the latest version.
5. 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.

Alarm push frequently?

1. In the app, lower the sensitivity of the motion detection alarm.
2. Check whether there are objects that interfere with and trigger the PIR sensor in the field of view of the device, such as the outdoor unit of the air conditioner, driving cars, passing pedestrians,etc. The angle of the device can be adjusted appropriately to avoid these easily disturbing objects.
3. Turn on “human motion detection” and use humanoid algorithm to filter useless alarms.

Device doesn’t detect motion events

1. In the case of 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.
2. 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 for many times.

SD card not recognized

1. Support capacity is 16-128GB TF card.
2. Before use, make sure to format the TF 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.
3. If the TF card is not recognized during use, it is generally a quality problem of the TF card, and it is necessary to replace the memory card with more stable reading and writing”.

Fast power consumption

1. In the case of poor wifi coverage (such as signal is below 75%), which will increase power consumption.
2. The PIR trigger frequency is high, and the power consumption will increase when the infrared light/white light is on at night;
3. The mobile phone often accesses the camera remotely, which will increase the power consumption.
4. For the first use, it is recommended to use the power to 10%, and then charge it to 100%, which is helpful for the health of the lithium battery.
