- Install the camera 2-3 meters(7-10 ft) above ground.
The detection range of the motion sensor would pe maximized at such a height. - For effective motion detection, please install the camera angularly.
NOTE: If a moving object approaches the PIR sensor vertically, the camera may fail to detect motion.
Notes on PiR Motion Sensor
PIR Sensor Detection Range
The PiR detection range can be customized to meet your specific needs. You may refer to the following table to set it up in Device Settings via CloudEdge App.
Sensivity | Detection Distance (For moving and living objects) |
Level 1-3 (Low) | Up to 2-5 meters |
Level 4-7(Med) | Up to 5-8 meters |
Level 8-10 (High) | Up to 8-10 meters |
Important Notes on Reducing False Alarms
- Do not face the camera towards any objects with bright lights, including sunshine, bright lamp lights, etc.
- Do not place the camera near any outlets, including the air conditioner vents, humidifier outlets, the heat transfer vents of projectors, etc.

FAQS
The device prompts offline?
- Check whether the equipment is in the power-on state, and observe whether the working light of the equipment is on normally.
- Confirm that the current location has good wi-fi coverage and the network is stable, make sure that the wi-fi signal is above 75%. You can try to use the third-party wi-fi analysis tool "wi-fi analyzer" to analyze the current wi-fi signal coverage and interference status. lf the coverage is poor and the interference is large, it is recommended to replace the camera installation position or adjust the router position or use a second-stage router.
- lf the device is located far away from the router, which results in the inability to obtain a good Wi-Fi signal, it is recommended to move the router to a closer place or ensure the Wi-Fi signal strength is to be over than 85% to improve the Wi-Fi performance of the home.
- Delete the camera from your CloudEdge account and add it again after resetting the device. Check whether the device firmware and app lication program are the latest version.
- Avoid using wi-fi extenders.
Update router or Wi-Fi password?
Delete the camera from your CloudEdge account. After resetting the device, use the new Wi-Fi and password to add it again.
Alarm push frequently?
- In the app, lower the sensitivity of the motion detection alarm.
- Check whether there are objects that interfere with and trigger the PIR sensor in the field of view of the device, such as the outdoor unit of the air conditioner, driving cars, passing pedestrians, etc. The angle of the device can be adjusted appropriately to avoid these easily disturbing objects
- Turn on "human motion detection" and use humanoid algorithm to filter useless alarms.
Device doesn't detect motion events
- In the case of unstable network, the message may not be pushed in time after the PlR is triggered. in this case, you can first confirm the network status and remove the camera to verify and confirm in an environment with good network coverage.
- Inappropriate installation position will result in PlR not triggering and not detecting. lf the position is too high, the object is too far away, or the object is too small, the camera will not trigger, try to adjust the installation position according to the trigger requirements for many times.
SD card not recognized
- Support capacity is 16~128GB TF card.
- Before use, make sure to format the Tf card as FAT32 or exFAT file system on the computer, then insert it into the camera, and finally perform the format memory card operation on the camera again.
- lf the TF card is not recognized during use, it is generally a quality problem of the TF card, and it is necessary to replace the memory card with more stable reading and writing"

Fast power consumption
- In the case of poor wi-fi coverage (such as signal is below 75%), which will increase power consumption.
- The PlR trigger frequency is high, and the power consumption will increase when the infrared light/white light is on at night;
- The mobile phone often accesses the camera remotely, which will increase the power consumption.
- For the first use, it is recommended to use the power to 10%, and then charge it to 100%, which is helpful for the health of the lithium battery.
