Put your camera and floodlight together

The floodlight is packed separately from the camera in the box.

Please watch at the video below and put the floodlight and camera together.

Congratulations for putting them together!

Before mounting it to the spot that you choose, please proceed to next section to get familiar with the camera and configure it.

Get to know your camera

Please take a few seconds to get familiar with your camera. Please refer to the diagrams below.

If you plan to store recordings locally and not use cloud storage (subscription needed), you should have a MicroSD card and insert it into the MicroSD card slot. If needed, use the tweezer (H) provided in the bag of screws and tools to hold the card. If you plan to store recordings in the cloud, you don’t need the MicroSD card. Note that you can store recordings both locally in the MicroSD card and in the cloud at the same time, which might be useful for critical areas.

[For Models OW3 and OW4] Please insert the 4G SIM card and insert it into the SIM card slot to enable data transmission.

How the camera & floodlight are activated

When the floodlight, not the IR light, is selected, the floodlight is activated to the ambient-lighting mode when the ambient light is low to enable full-color night vision for Models OW2/OW4. The ambient-lighting mode is not available for Models OW1/OW3.

If the camera is in the full-time recording mode, it records continuously. Otherwise, the camera is by default in the standby mode and starts to record and the floodlight is changed to the bright-light mode at night if the floodlight is selected, when

• The passive infred (PIR) sensor detects movement, or

• A user starts a live view session.

The PIR sensitivity can be adjusted via the detailed settings for a camera. The higher the sensitivity is, the more frequently the camera and the floodlight are activated to start recording and the bright-light mode, respectively.

Mount your camera and solar panel(s)

Find the spot

After you’ve configured your camera and are familiar with the app, it’s time to put the camera into action!

Choose a spot where you’d like to mount the camera and the solar panel.

1. • Ideally, the camera should be 8 - 9 ft (2.5 - 3 m) high above ground.

   • Make sure that 

     • There is good WiFi or 4G signal (at least 2 bars), as appropriate for your model. You can hold your camera at the spot and use the app to check the signal strength.

     • Within 10 ft (3 m) (or less if not routing the charging cable in a straight line), there is a spot with plenty of direct sunlight (at least three hours) where you can mount the solar panel(s) to charge the battery.

     • There is no hot electric wire behind the spot. If in doubt, verify with a stub finder with a hot wire detection function.

Mount the camera

Please follow the steps below to mount your camera.

1. Place the positioning template sticker for the camera on the spot where you will mount your camera.

2. Find 4 screws (B), 1 screw (C), and the screwdriver (I) from the bag of screws and tools. Note that the wall anchors are needed only for brick or concrete surface.

3. Drill pilot holes according to the template and then remove the template. For best results, use a drill bit appropriate for the surface.

4. Find the mounting plate (2) at the back of the camera base (1). Remove the mounting plate by pulling it from its bottom and sliding it down.

5. Use four screws (B) to secure the mounting plate onto the mounting surface. Note that the side with two tabs should be up.

6. Put the camera base (1) back on to mounting plate so that the top of the camera base is secured by the two tabs of the mounting plate.

7. Use the screwdriver (I) to secure the base with the screw (C).

Mount the solar panel(s)

Find a spot to mount the solar panel(s).

Make sure that

• There is sufficient direct sunlight at the spot.

• The charging cable from the solar panel can be plugged into the charging port of the camera. 

• If you plan to route the cable along your existing structure, pre-route it to make sure that the cable can be plugged into the charging port of the camera.

• There is no hot electric wire behind the spot. If in doubt, verify with a stub finder with a hot wire detection function.

1. Place the positioning template sticker for the solar panel mounting system on the spot.

2. Find 4 screws (D), 2 screws (E), and 6 cable clips (F) from the bag of screws and tools. Note that the wall anchors are needed only for brick or concrete surface. 

3. Drill pilot holes according to the template and then remove the template. For best results, use a drill bit appropriate for the surface.

4. Use 4 screws (D) to secure the solar panel mounting system onto the mounting surface.

5. Rotate the top part down as shown for Step 4to mount the solar panel. Loose the tension by adjusting the screw if needed. A quarter turn usually suffices.

6. Align the two threaded holes on back of the solar panel with the mounting system.

7. Use 2 screws (E) to secure the solar panel onto the mounting system.

8. Adjust manually the orientation of the solar panel to maximum its exposure to the sunlight. If it is hard to orient the solar panel, loosen the screw (1) in the figure above slightly and retighten it when done.

9. If your model comes with two solar panels, repeat the steps above to mount the second solar panel.

10. Plug in the USB cable from the solar panel(s) to the camera. 

11. Optionally, use the cable clips (F) to secure the cable(s) to your existing structure.onto the mounting system.
