Before Your Start

Before setup of the camera, we strongly recommend recharging the camera overnight to make sure it has 100% power.

1. To charge your cameras, use 5V DC phone chargers (not included) and cables (included) to charge the cameras.
   

2. The indicator blinks in green while charging, indicator turns off when it’s fully charged.

NOTE:

1. Please use only 5V DC power charger to recharge the camera. Charger do not meet the standard may damage the batteries.
2. Please charge the battery at room temperature to avoid damage.

Connecting Your System

Connect all cameras locally before final placement to ensure that all components function properly.

1. Connect the NVR to a PC monitor or TV with included HDMI cable.
   NOTE: Monitor is required for initial setup. After completing the initial setup, your NVR does not need to be connected to a TV or monitor to view or capture recordings.

2. Connect the NVR WAN port to your router with included network cable (Skip this step if you plan to connect the NVR to internet via Wi-Fi).
   

3. Plug the USB mouse into the USB port on the NVR.

4. Connect the NVR to power with included power adapter.
   

5. To verify whether cameras are working, please ensure they appear on your TV/monitor before mounting them.
   NOTE: Make sure NVR is in intended location before testing cameras.

6. Press the power button to turn on the camera.
   NOTE: You should see each camera appear on your TV/monitor. You may now proceed to install cameras in your desired location.

7. Bring cameras to desired mounting locations and go back to NVR screen, click Play to see if they can stream fluently. If a camera does not stream well, adjust it to a location with less obstacles in-line-of-sight from the NVR. If they stream fluently, go ahead to mount the cameras.
   NOTE: Select a least interfered Wi-Fi channel so your NVR performs its best Wi-Fi capability.
   In NVR’s menu – System Setting – Network – NVR Wi-Fi hotspot, click “Adaptive Channel”.
   

For bigger NVR, in NVR’s menu – System Setting – Network Setting – Wi-Fi Setting, click “Auto Select Wi-Fi Channel”.

Positioning Your NVR and Cameras

• Camera distance from NVR can reach up to 300ft. wirelessly. The rfore, proper placement of the wireless NVR in your home will help ensure you achieve maximum coverage.

• DO NOT place near high voltage wires or other sources of electrical interference. Electrical l interference will degrade the quality of the signal.
  

• Install the camera 2/3 meters (7-10 ft) above the ground. This height maximizes the detection range of the motion sensor.

• For dome cameras, they MUST be installed upside down for better waterproof performance and better motion sensor’s efficiency.

• For better motion detection performance, please install the camera angularly.

Mounting the Camera and Solar Panel

7.1 Mount the Camera

1. Unscrew the bracket from the camera. Use a pencil to mark screw holes on the wall.

2. Fix the bracket on the wall with 3 screws (included).
   

3. Attach the camera to bracket and adjust the view angle.

4. If you use a solar panel, mount the solar panel and plug to the camera. Adjust the panel so it captures good sunlight.
   

PIR sensor is sensitive to heat changes, please note:

• Avoid installing the camera where has complicated air flows. For example: the air vent of an air conditioner, the side of a fan, etc.
• Please do not install the camera against glass or a mirror.
• While installing, avoid lining up the camera with a path. Keeping some angle will help the camera to sense people.
• Do not install the camera upside down. (PIR sensor is the downside.)

7.2 Mount the Solar Panel
Connect the solar powered camera to this solar panel with 3-meter connection cable (included) to get non-stop power.

1. Please select a position with the maximum sunlight exposure throughout the year for your solar panel. Mount your solar panel facing due south (in the northern hemisphere) or due north (in the southern hemisphere) and tilt it to the appropriate angle for your latitude.

2. Mount the bracket with the screws included in the package.

3. Slot the solar panel into the bracket and make sure that it’s secure.
   

4. Loosing the adjusting control on the bracket to adjust the angle of the solar panel to make it receive direct sunlight exposure, then tighten the adjusting control to fix the solar panel.

5. Connect the solar panel to the camera with included USB cable.
   

NOTE:

1. Make sure that there is no blocking on the solar panel. The energy harvesting efficiency drops drastically even when a small portion of the solar panel is shaded by other objects.
2. Please don’t install the solar panel completely horizontally. Otherwise your solar panel may accumulate dust and other debris easily. It’s advised to install the solar panel angularly to make it receive direct sunlight exposure.
3. Wipe the solar panel regularly to remove the dust and debris.
4. Make sure that the camera is plugged in all the way and that the waterproof wire cover protects the interface between the camera and the solar panel.

Pairing a Camera to the Mini NVR

10.1 Pairing a Camera to the Mini NVR
By default, each camera within your Wireless NVR kit comes pre-paired to the Wireless NVR. Additionally, your wireless NVR has its own built-in Wi-Fi for secure, uninterrupted video transmission and recording. Pairing allows for the wireless transmission coming from the camera to be detected by the Wireless NVR. However, if you want to add more cameras to the system, the add- on cameras will similarly need to be paired to the NVR.

1. Press the power button to power on the camera. Make sure the camera is in Pairing Mode. If not, reset the camera to bring it to Pairing Mode.
   NOTE: This should be done locally at the NVR to avoid interference.

2. With the NVR connected to a TV/Monitor, click + icon at the bottom and follow the on-screen guide to pair your camera to the NVR.
   NOTE: Icons may vary depending on model number.

3. Once pair successfully, the new camera will appear in a vacant video field.
   NOTE: You can not exceed the number of NVR channels you have. If you have an 8 channel system, the maximum number of cameras you can have paired is 8.

4. Your add-on camera has now been paired to the NVR using NVR’s built-in Wi-Fi.

5. If you fail to pair the camera to NVR, please reset the camera and pair it again. To do so, press and hold the reset button until you hear a prompt sound, indicating the camera has begun the reset process. Then pair the camera to NVR once again.
   

NOTE: The location of the camera reset button may vary.
NOTE: Pairing a replacement camera is similar as pairing a new add-on camera. The only difference is you need to delete the old camera from NVR first, and then start pairing the replacement camera to your NVR.

Switch Cameras to 24/7 Working Mode

Battery/ solar powered cameras are designed to work on motion-triggered base. We suggest to let the cameras work in Event Recording Mode.
If in a certain location you do need a 24/7 camera, please purchase a compatible plug-in Wi-Fi camera to add to this system.
There is a way to make these battery cameras working 24/7:

1. Use a 5V 1A/2A phone charger and an USB cable to keep the camera plugged to power outlet; so the camera has constant power.

2. Go to NVR’s System setting – Camera, change the camera’s record mode to Continuous Record Mode.
   NOTE: Using battery-powered cameras with plug-in power will affect the battery life.

Safety Instructions of Battery Usage

The camera is not designed for running 24/7 at full capacity or around-the- clock live streaming.
It’s designed to record motion events and to live view remotely only when you need it.

1. The battery is built-in, so do not remove it from the camera.
2. Charge the rechargeable battery with a standard and high-quality DC 5V phone charger or Yeewise solar panel. Do not charge the battery with solar panels from any other brands.
3. Charge the battery when temperatures are between 0℃ and 45℃ and always use the battery when temperatures are between -20℃ and 60℃.
4. Keep the USB charging port dry, clean, and free of any debris.
5. Do not charge, use, or store the battery near any ignition sources, such as fire or heaters.
6. Do not disassemble, cut, puncture, short-circuit the battery, or dispose of the battery in water, fire, microwave ovens and pressure vessels.
