Installation
Installation Location
Choose a location with a clear, unblocked field of view and with a good
wireless signal to the camera. Please keep the following tips in mind:
- Make sure the wall is strong enough to withstand three times the weight of the camera.
- Camera cannot be installed in front of an air conditioner or facing direct sunlight.
- Recommended installation height: 10 ft (3 m) above the ground. Recommended installation angle: Tilt down 15 degrees.
- Make sure that side-to-side traffic crosses camera’s field of view. The camera’s motion sensor is much more sensitive to side-to-side movement across its field of view than to movement directly toward or away from the camera.
- It is recommended to set detection sensitivity on EZVIZ app when selecting location. Thus you can verify if motion can be detected in the camera’s placement and adjust the sensitivity based on the size and distance of detected object.
Installation Steps
- Place drill template onto a clean and flat surface.
- (For cement wall only) Drill screw holes according to the template, and insert anchors.
- Use screws to fix the mounting plate according to the template.
- Rotate the magnetic base (Fig.1) or screw base (Fig.2) to the mouting plate. – Mount the camera to the base.
View Your Device
The App interface may change due to version update. Please refer to the actual
interface.
Live View
When you launch the EZVIZ app, the device page displays as shown below. You
can view and listen to a live feed, take snapshots or recordings, and choose
video definition as needed.
Video History
The camera supports both local storage and cloud storage.
Tap Video History button on the device page, then you can use the calender and
timeline to find and view specific recordings.
Speak
This function allows you to receive and transmit audio through the camera. Tap
the Speak button on the device page, then it is ready to talk and
listen.
Intelligent Human Detection
Go to Settings – Intelligent Human Detection and enable it. Then EZVIZ will
send you notifications when a trigger is detected.
To let the camera respond differently in different situations, you can
customize the detection notification by changing settings of detection
sensitivity. The higher sensitivity is, the further distance can be detected.
Active Defense
With intelligent human detection enabled, the camera will automatically
trigger alarm and start recording once human or animal is detected. Alarm
stops until no motion is detected.
In addition, you can also tap the Active Defense button on the device page to
trigger an alarm. The camera will sound an alarm and the spotlight will flash
quickly to deter intruders, which can last up to one minute.
FAQ
Q: If the camera is offline on the App, will the video recording be
continued?
A: If the camera is powered on but disconnect to the Internet, then local
recording will continue but cloud recording will stop. If the camera is
powered off, both video recordings will stop.
Q: Why the alarm is triggered when nobody in the image?
A: Try to set the alarm sensitivity lower. Please notice that vehicle and
animals are also the trigger source.
Q: Does the camera support adding an SD card?
A: The camera has a built-in 32G eMMC memory card, loop recording, and does
not support SD card capacity expansion.
Q: Why is the memory card capacity less than 32G displayed on the App?
A: Due to the calculation difference between binary and decimal arithmetic,
the memory card’s actual capacity is about 90% of the standard capacity.
