Opstel instruksies

1. Laai die toepassing af

Download the official "Eye4" application from your smartphone's app store (available for Android and iOS). Ensure your phone meets the minimum system requirements.

2. Skakel die kamera aan

Connect the camera to a power source using the provided DC 5V power adapter. The camera will initiate its startup sequence. The power cable is approximately 3-4 feet long, so plan placement accordingly.

3. Netwerkverbinding

There are two methods for connecting the camera to your network:

  • Draadloos (Wi-Fi):
    1. Ensure your smartphone is connected to a 2.4GHz Wi-Fi network. This camera does not support 5GHz Wi-Fi.
    2. Open the "Eye4" app and follow the on-screen instructions to add a new device.
    3. Select the Wi-Fi connection option and enter your Wi-Fi network password when prompted.
    4. The app will guide you through the pairing process, which may involve scanning a QR code generated by the app with the camera lens or using sound pairing.
  • Bedraad (Ethernet):
    1. Koppel die een kant van die Ethernet-kabel aan die kamera se RJ45-poort en die ander kant aan jou router.
    2. Open the "Eye4" app and follow the instructions to add a new device, selecting the wired connection option.
    3. The camera should automatically connect to the network.

During setup, you will be prompted for a password. The initial default password is typically printed on a sticker on the bottom of the camera. It is highly recommended to change this default password immediately for security purposes. The system may not allow special characters in the new password.
