The Cameras

NOTE

  • Different types of cameras are included in this section. Please check out the camera included in the package and check out the details from the corresponding introduction above.
  • The actual appearance and components may vary with different model of product

Connecting Your System

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

  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 Ethernet 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. Hold the ON/ OFF switch of the camera to turn it on.
    NOTE : you should see each camera appear on your TV/ monitor. You may now proceed to install cameras in the desired locations.

  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 – WiFi setting, click “Auto select WiFi channel””

Positioning Your NVR and Cameras

  • Camera distance from NVR can reach up to 300 ft. wirelessly. Therefore, 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 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. 10

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

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

STOP 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.)

Mounting the Camera and Solar Panel Mount the Camera

 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 XMARTO solar panel. Do not charge the battery with solar panels from any other brands.
  3. Charge the battery when temperatures are between 0°C and 45°C and always use the battery when temperatures are between -20°C and 60°C.
  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.
  7. Do not use the battery if it gives off an odor, generates heat, becomes discolored or deformed, or appears abnormal in any ways. If the battery is being used or charged, turn off the power switch or remove the charger immediately, and stop using it.
  8. Always follow the local waste and recycle laws when you get rid of the used battery.

Pairing a Camera to the Mini NVR

By default, each camera within your kit comes pre-paired to the mini NVR. Additionally, your mini 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 NVR. If you want to add more cameras to your system, the add-on cameras will similarly need to be paired to the NVR.

  1. Hold the ON/ OFF switch of the camera to turn it on. 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.

  3. Once paired successfully, the new camera will appear.
    NOTE : You cannot 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 the NVR’s built in Wi-Fi.

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 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 XMARTO 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.

Frequently Asked Questions

  1. Why I cannot see continuous live video on the monitor?
    Because the cameras automatically enter standby mode to save power. As a thermal detection security system powered with solar and batteries, the system works when activities detected and standby when there is no activity.

  2. Does the system have to be connected to a monitor all the time?
    Not really. Connecting the NVR to your TV or monitor enables you to enter the NVR’s Linux OS. It is necessary for the initial setup. After the setup finished, you can unplug the NVR from its screen and view the system on your smartphone or tablet. If you are using a TV, you can switch the signal source to TV programs and switch back to this HDMI connection when needed.

  3. Does the battery/ solar cameras record 24/7?
    Yes but not by default. All solar/ battery-powered security cameras record based on motion detection. If you need 24/7 cameras, please go for XMARTO Wi- Fi security camera system with plug-in power. You can also plug this camera to power with a 5V DC phone charger, then switch to “Continuous Recording Mode” to make it work 24/7.

  4. Why my cameras run out of batteries fast.

    • Make sure to fully charge your cameras before you mount them. It shall take 4-6 hours to fully charge them.
    • When you are using solar panel as the power source, make sure the camera is in Event Record Mode. If you want the cameras to work in Continuous Record Mode, plug the cameras to wall outlets with 5V power chargers.
    • Make sure your solar panel is properly installed to obtain solar power.
  5. Why Need a Solar Panel?
    Connecting XMARTO battery camera to solar panel, you will be able to get non- stop power for your camera all day and all night. Also, you don’t need to take time to charge your cameras yourselves anymore. It will save you a lot of time.
