Camera Settings
Motion Detection
Introduction
Motion Detection performance can vary based on real-world conditions. The detection range is affected by factors like weather and a person’s walking speed.
Distance options (in the app)
You can select one of three detection ranges:
- Near: 10-15 meters
- Far: 20-30 meters
Note: These ranges are approximate. Actual results may differ depending on conditions.
What can change the detection distance?
- Weather: Rain, fog, snow, or extreme temperatures may reduce detection performance.
- Movement speed: Very fast movement or very slow movement can affect how reliably motion is detected.
Motion Detection Activation
- Storage required:
The camera needs an SD card or cloud storage to record and save motion events. Without storage, motion alerts may still work, but no video will be saved.
- Battery Level:
When it drops below 20%, the camera will activate low-power mode, restricting functionality to mobile monitoring only (alarm triggers will be disabled).
- Adjust the Detection Sensitivity.
Why doesn't the camera have an alarm record?
- It is recommended to install the camera at a height of 2-3 meters with a downward tilt of approximately 15 degrees to achieve optimal motion detection range.
- Camera can detect moving objects that are 30 meters away from the camera.
- For best results, install the camera in open areas. Restricted spaces may limit motion detection performance.
Nothing moving but alarms frequently
The motion detection has been mistakenly triggered, and there may be objects within the detection range that are prone to false alarms. You can try the following methods:
- It is recommended to avoid roadside or crowded places when installing the camera.
- Adjust the "Detection Sensitivity" setting to narrow down the camera's detection range
Why is there a delay in recording?
When an action is captured, the camera wakes up and the AI recognizes the object, then starts recording. You can try the following methods:
- Improve detection sensitivity and increase detection range.
- Place the camera in an open environment as much as possible, which is beneficial for improving the detection range.
Why can't my phone receive any alarm notifications?
- If the "motion detection" triggers but there have no alarm notifications, please check if the "message notifications" is on/off, and also check if the app's notification permissions are restricted.
Why does my camera stop tracking?——AI Human tracking function
- Press "Human tracking" to turn it on.
- When entering the streaming page, do not operate the joystick manually.
- Make sure the position of the camera can capture complete human figures.(If not, tracking would be limited.)
- If there are still problems, please provide us with the NID of your camera and a screenshot like follows:
All-time Recording:
- Generally, the camera only starts recording when the camera detects a moving object.
- If there is an external power supply, you can select Full Time Mode in"Settings -- Consumption"
Image
Why is the image blurry and unclear?
- Manually set image clarity in the app.
- When the network stability is compromised, the camera will automatically compress the picture quality to ensure normal operation.
- Do not place the camera directly in the sun.
- The surface of the lens is dirty.
- If the lens is fogged inside, try placing the camera in a ventilated and dry environment for a few days. If there is no improvement, please contact the brand's after-sales customer service for assistance.
Why are some parts of the screen too bright at night?
- Within a 2-meter spatial range of the camera's perspective, there should be no obstructions or walls; otherwise, infrared radiation will gather here and cause overexposure.
Replay
How does a camera store videos?
- Insert a Micro SD card or activate cloud storage.
How to modify the recording duration?
- AOV video will record all the time(1fps video)
- When the person is detected, video will be changed to 15fps, the max detection video lenght is 1min
- When the person is gone, the video returns to AOV mode
