Bird Lover Bird Feeder Camera FAQ and Troubleshooting

How to get it to connect to two different routers?

It cannot be connected to two different routers at the same time.If you want to change routers, you will need to reset the camera and reconnect your phone and camera. Please make sure that your phone and camera are both connected to the same Wi-Fi network before pairing.

How to reset Bird Lover Bird Feeder Camera?

1.Switch on the camera and wait for the camera to start.

2.Press and hold the Reset or Sync button for 5s to reset the camera, the reset button is next to the USB charging port.

3.After reset the camera will reboot, then you can start to connect the camera.

Why The current network is in poor condition/The APP keeps going round in circles?

The network signal is weak if there are walls between the outlet, router and phone. This is because the network signal is absorbed or blocked by walls or large obstacles. It will help to have strong Wi-Fi with a Wi-Fi extender/booster.

How to charge Bird Feeder Camera?

A solar charging panel integrated into the roof can provide a constant source of power to support the smart bird camera. You can charge the battery of the Bird Box Camera via USB for continuous charging at night and on rainy days.

Why the Bird Lover Bird Feeder Camera battery is drain so fast?

It is low power consumption camera. Plus the solar panel power in charge, it can maintain the daily energy consumption in sunny day. If the battery drains too fast, you should check:

· Whether you check the camera with APP too often.

· Whether the camera is always waking up due to too many birds visiting.

· Is the Wi-Fi performance good or not? If the camera loses Wi-Fi or the Wi-Fi is too weak, the camera will keep searching for the Wi-Fi signal until it runs out of power.

How to identify birds species?

Simply click on the “Identify” icon and the app will identify the bird species and provide a description of the bird. See the manual for details.

Why the recognition result is wrong?

The accuracy of the results depends on the angle and clarity of the bird images.

To ensure a correct result, please ensure that the image is clear enough. The identifying features (bird’s head, tail, wings or pattern on feathers) should not be obscured by obstructions.

The bird should be in the main position in the picture; try to capture the best moment to recognise the bird if the previous recognition accuracy rate is too low; if there are two or more bird species in a picture, the identified result will be the one in the main position.

How many account can connect this Bird Lover Bird Feeder Camera ?

Only one account can connect to Bird Lover Bird Feeder Camera, you can share it with other accounts through the sharing function.

Can I use the Bird Lover Bird Feeder Camera without a TF storage card?

It is not affected for daily use without TF storage card. Without storage card, it can receive notifications, watch in real time, take pictures and record videos (It will be stored in the APP Gallery );

Just can’t record.

Will this camera show video through the app if my phone is 5g?

Yes.

EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT V300 LIVE STREAMING

A strong cellular signal on both devices will ensure smooth live streaming.

The V300 series offers the amazing feature of live-streaming as a 40-minute add-on that can be shared between compatible devices over a 12-month period.

Want to test it out first? Upon activation, every V300 includes two minutes of live streaming during the free seven-day trial period.

How to start a live-streaming

1.Check the signal. Make sure you have a good signal on the V300 and on your smartphone. A strong signal on both devices will provide a smooth experience and image quality.
Check how to improve your connectivity.

2.Press the yellow button. You have two ways of starting a live-streaming session.

• Via the Home screen. Click on the round yellow button to get to the live-streaming screen. If you have many V300, you will have a button for each one.

• Via every photo/video. Click on a picture or a video taken by a V300, and press the yellow button “Start Live Streaming”.

3.Press “PLAY” in the dark video screen. It might take a few seconds to load on your phone. The stronger the signal, the less time it will take to start.

4.OPTIONAL – Boost the quality. Toggle on the Max Quality under the video to get a higher bit rate (960 kbps). At this pace, the time left is reduced by four. It means if you have 40 minutes left in High Quality, it will turn into 10 minutes in Max Quality.
Remember: if the live-streaming may be choppy at times, a recording in Full HD will appear in the app after the session, and will also be saved on your MicroSD card.

5.Monitor how much time is left. In the video, you can see how much time is left on your Live Streaming add-on and make smart decisions. If you are running out of minutes, you can buy another add-on, valid for the next 12 months, shareable among your live-streaming cameras.

6.Watch it again in Full HD. Get the full quality once the live-streaming is over, without any buffering. It will be available in the app for a full year. You can also find The Full HD video on the MicroSD card in the camera.

What is the difference between live-streaming and 10-second Full HD video?

The live-streaming allows you to see what is happening live around your camera. It can last as long as you have live-streaming minutes in your account. It is great when you receive a notification, and you want to check if there are still some movements.

Your camera stores a 10-second Full HD video on the servers at every detection. You can request the video to understand better what happened during the detection. Simply click on a photo and press the button “Request Full HD video”.

What is the impact on the battery life?

The more you use those features, the more it takes a toll on the battery life.

This is especially true if the V300 doesn’t get a steady and strong signal. Just like your cell phone, the camera will work harder to connect to the cellular tower and communicate information.

If you see the battery life dropping, consider adding the Universal Solar Powerbank to sustain your camera from 6 to 12 months.

How to buy additional live-streaming minutes?

You can easily purchase a live-streaming add-on which will add 40 minutes shareable among all VOSKER streaming devices for the next 12 months.

Mobile app:

1.Click on the “Cameras” tab at the bottom of the screen.

2.Click “See plan” under one of your V300 cameras.

3.From the “Plan” tab, click “ADD” live streaming.

4.Follow the purchasing steps.

Web app:

1.Once logged in to the web app, click on “MANAGE PLAN” under your V300 model.

2.Click on “Add” under the live streaming option.

3.Follow the purchasing steps.

Warning: you need a transmission plan (Base, Alerted or Elite) before buying the live-streaming add-on.

LongPlus Camera User Guide

M.Salih ASLAN — Tue, 09 Jan 2024 14:05:27 +0000

LongPlus Camera User Guide, LongPlus, which means “Long & Plus Security”, is designed to provide you with long-term and enhanced security protection so you can live a safe, intelligent life.

How to properly install the security camera?

When installing security cameras, LongPlus always recommends placing cameras up high. The outdoor installation location should be 7ft away from the ground. Here are the best places to install security cameras around your home: front & back doors, garage & driveway, yard, common areas, main stairway or hallway, or any side doors or large first-floor windows that an intruder could gain access through.

🟠 Typically, home cameras are placed in the corners of the room to optimize the viewing angle. LongPlus recommends at least two cameras to fully cover a large space, such as a living room. To fully monitor your home, users can add cameras in each room to achieve a complete home monitoring system.

LongPlus Camera User Guide

🟠 Battery cameras can not be installed behind a window/glass if you want to use the “Motion Detection” feature.

Battery cameras use PIR (passive infrared) motion detection, an energy-efficient (saving battery power) technology that captures motions by detecting infrared radiation (radiant heat) emitted or reflected by objects. When the camera is mounted behind a window/glass, infrared radiation does not pass through the window/glass. As a result, the “Motion Detection feature” does not work reliably. If you want the camera to detect motions outside, it is recommended that you mount the camera outside.

For plug-in/wired cameras, the answer is yes, as they use camera video analytics rather than PIR sensors to detect motions. As long as they “see”, they can detect motions. So you can mount the camera behind a window/glass with confidence.

How to find the serial number of LongPlus security camera?

🟠 Each LongPlus security camera has a serial number. These are usually located on the body label of the security camera, starting with S/N:*****. Also, if you’ve added your camera to the app, you can also tap the camera “setting” icon > tap the “>” extension icon > tap the “More info” button to find the camera’s serial number.

Is LongPlus security camera waterproof?

🟠 Yes. The waterproof rating of LongPlus camera is IP65. It can be “protected against water jets from any angle”. Generally, the camera can be used outdoors on ordinary rainy and snowy days. However, it may get damaged in extreme weather. But if the camera is installed under the roof or in a place with some shelter, it can get protection to a certain extent. Besides, please don’t expose the camera’s charging port, power button, and microSD card slot to water.

What do the indicator lights on LongPlus security camera mean?

🔵 Solid Blue Light – The camera is working properly.

🟡 Solid Yellow Light – The camera is charging.

🟢 Solid Green Light – The camera charging is complete.

⚪ No Light – The camera is in sleep/off mode.

Can I talk to someone via LongPlus App?

🟠 Yes, LongPlus security camera features two-way audio capability, which means you can listen and talk to someone in real-time with simple clicks in the App.

Do LongPlus security cameras need an app to work?

🟠 Yes! All LongPlus smart security cameras are connected to the LongPlus APP. Compatible and compatible with the latest versions of iOS/Android devices. Installing LongPlus app is a breeze and it comes with voice prompts to guide you step-by-step in minutes.

What is the default language of LongPlus security cameras?

🟠 The default language of LongPlus security camera is set during production and testing in the factory production process. After connecting with LongPlus APP, the language of the camera will follow the language of the APP.

Can I see the infrared light at night?

🟠 No, the night vision infrared light is invisible to human eyes. If you turn on your phone’s camera and point it at the camera lens, then you will be able to see it.

How to format a Micro SD card?

🟠 Sometimes after inserting a Micro SD card, the camera will report “Please use the app to format your SD card first”, that’s because your Micro SD card is not the FAT32 format that the camera supports. In this case, please tap the camera Setting icon > tap SD card > tap Format to format it.

How to record/save videos on a Micro SD card?

🟠 Installing a Micro SD card does not mean the camera will record a video to the Micro SD card all the time.

When the camera detects a movement, it will record a video to the cloud and the cloud recording will display in the Library in the app. If apart from the cloud recordings you want to save backup videos on a Micro SD card at the same time, you can insert a Micro SD card into the camera.

🟠 Here are tips:

1. Find the Micro SD card slot and insert your Micro SD card: Mostly, the Micro SD card slot is next to the power button and is under the rubber plug of the camera body. However, for some models of cameras, you may need to take off the outer shell of the camera to find the Micro SD card slot.

2. If the Micro SD card is detected, you will hear “SD card detected” at the time when it is inserted, and you can see both the storage of the Micro SD card and “SD Card Video” in the app.

Please note that the camera only supports legitimate brand-name (SanDisk, Samsung, Kingston) Micro SD cards, but may not be able to support no-brand, fake, expansion (the storage is extended), and read-only (you aren’t able to put a file to it) Micro SD cards

How to view videos on the Micro SD card?

You can view videos on the Micro SD card from the app or on your computer.

To view videos on the Micro SD card from the app, please tap the camera “setting” icon on the app homepage > tap “SD card video” on the “Camera Setting” page > select the date on the top > swipe the screen left and right until the green vertical line overlaps the grey “bubble”( If there is no grey “bubble”, that means there are no motions detected in that period).

If you want to zoom in on the specific time before playing a video, you can swipe two fingers left and right at the same time or tap the “magnifying glass” icon.

How to activate cloud storage?

🟠 The cloud storage we gift you is automatically activated and contains free 3 days rolling cloud storage. You can view the cloud-stored videos in the last 7 days at any time.

When the SD card is full will it overwrite the older files?

🟠 Yes, when the SD card is full, the camera will delete the earlier recorded video so you don’t need to format the SD card manually.

Can the camera be used without a memory card?

🟠 Without a memory card, the recorded video will be automatically saved in the cloud, you can watch the video for nearly 7 days in the cloud.

How long does it take to charge LongPlus camera once?

🟠 It will take about 8 -15 hours to fully charge the camera once. When the security camera is fully charged, the indicator light will turn solid green.

Why can’t the battery be charged?

🟠 The following factors may cause charge failure. Please check them one by one:

(1) The charging device is not suitable, or it malfunctions. Please make sure the power adapter and charging cable are in good condition. The power adapter specification is “5V/1.5A”.

(2) The charging port is defective. Possible causes include: the Micro USB cable and the charger or the charging port of the camera are not plugged in properly; there are objects in the charger or the charging port of the camera.

(3) Please confirm whether there are objects in the camera’s charging port or the charger port and clean it before charging.
Please ensure that the Micro USB cable is in good contact with the ports on both ends of the charger and camera.

(4) You can try to connect the Micro USB cable and the charger to other devices (such as mobile phones or computers) to see if they work normally. If anyone doesn’t work, please change to a new one to try again.

(5) The long-time operation leads to charge port oxidation or internal looseness. Please repair or replace the charge port immediately.
The charging cable is damaged or broken. Please replace the Micro USB cable that can work normally.

(6) The charging cable should not be too long. The required cable length is generally not more than 16 feet (5 m). Please replace the Micro USB cable with a suitable length.

(7) The charging environment is not suitable; excessively high or low temperature makes charging impossible. Please move to a place with an appropriate temperature environment (0°C ~ 45°C) for charging.

If the above are ruled out but the issue still persists, please submit feedback from the app for further technical assistance.

Why can’t the battery be used for a long time?

🟠 The battery life mainly depends on the total working duration of the camera. The following factors may lead to fast battery consumption. Please check them one by one:

1. Users frequently view live streams/The camera is frequently activated to record videos.
In order to make the camera work longer, please avoid turning on the live broadcast for a long time.

2. Poor Wi-Fi connection to the camera
If the camera’s Wi-Fi connection is bad or unstable, it will continue to actively search for networks, so the battery will drain quickly.
Please try to place the camera near the Wi-Fi router. Thick walls, bricks, ceramics, electromagnetic equipment, large amounts of liquid, and large metal objects can interfere with Wi-Fi signals. Please try to avoid these objects.

3. Extremely cold weather shortens battery life
The operating temperature of the camera is -10°~45 °C. Please do not place the camera in an extremely cold environment.

4. Night Sight will consume more battery power
When you enable Night Sight, the camera will enter night mode when the light is darker than the threshold (sensitivity level). Camera performance is improved when it is dark.
Therefore, for sharp nighttime images, we don’t recommend disabling it, although it may drain more battery power. But if you still want to disable it, you can tap the camera “Settings” icon > tap “Lighting Settings” > close “Night Sight”.

How can I extend the battery life?

🟠 The battery life is largely determined by the number of recordings and the number and duration of live. Here are the suggestions to extend the battery life:

(1) To reduce false triggers. Change the location or angle of the camera. Please allow us to explain how motion detection works: when the PIR sensor perceives a change in the environment, motion detection will be triggered. The change in the environment can be a moving object, light change, the alternation of hot and cold air, etc. Particularly common false triggers include trees shaking after being blown by the wind, the cold air of the air conditioning, etc.

(2) Set motion detection sensitivity to Low or Medium. After doing that, the distance the PIR sensor can detect will become shorter so that false triggers may be reduced.

(3) Shorten the recording duration of the camera. Currently, the camera-supported recording durations are 10 seconds, 15 seconds, 20 seconds, and automatic (up to 3 minutes). For your reference:

Battery capacity	Number of recordings
5000mAh	3000~3500
5200mAh	3000~3500
6700mAh	4000
9000mAh	6000~7000
🗒️ Note: This data is obtained by testing in actual use

(4) Set Sleep mode. This feature allows you to schedule the working hours for the camera. Whether the camera enters sleep mode on schedule, or you enable Sleep, the camera will be deactivated. Under this condition, the live feed will not be accessed, motion detection (including push notifications, recordings, and camera alarm) will stop working. This can reduce power consumption to save battery life.

(5) If possible, you can try to watch live feeds or adjust camera settings on your mobile phones less frequently.

(6) To avoid or reduce the battery consumption caused by poor network connection. You can place the camera as close to the router as possible, and try to avoid thick walls, bricks, ceramics, electromagnetic wave equipment, a large amount of liquid, and large metal objects.

(7) We suggest that the camera be installed in a suitable temperature environment (14°F~113°F).

(8) It is generally not recommended that you turn off night vision, but if you do not need to monitor at night (watch live and video), you can turn off night vision.

Will Wi-Fi environment affect the camera battery?

🟠 Yes, an unstable or poor network environment will cause the camera to transmit data multiple times, the camera keeps actively searching for the network, or even reconnect to Wi-Fi continuously, which will result in faster battery consumption. Multi-layer concrete walls, brick walls, and overcrowded Wi-Fi channels will cause a bad Wi-Fi environment.

To save the camera’s battery life, please ensure that the network connection is strong.

How to charge the camera?

PIR is a far-release infrared sensor, which is based on the human body’s far-release infrared to determine whether people are active. There are other objects in nature that have the same wavelength of infrared, such as sunlight, mammals, and cars and heat sources.

Serious electromagnetic interference can also cause false triggers to the equipment. The interference of the PIR sensor can be reduced by the following means.

Try to avoid direct sunlight, solar cameras and other outdoor products. Radar technology has been added, therefore, there is no need to avoid direct sunlight.
Where there are more people, it is recommended to turn off the PIR or turn down the sensitivity to reduce false alarms.

Why does the UBox camera battery run out of power in a few days?

Low-power products use a combination of extremely low-power dormancy and fast remote wake-up, which significantly extension battery life and if the battery consumes electricity faster, check the following points:

For safe transport, the battery is usually in a state of about 50% electricity, therefore, it needs to be charged before use.
Frequent PIR triggers could quickly consume battery power, and it is recommended to set PIR for low sensitivity or shutdown in complex environments.
Battery life is typically calculated by watching 20 times a day. Frequent or prolonged viewing of the device can also lead to rapid electricity consumption.

Why is normal for some mobile phones when watching the SD video are ok, but is seriously delayed when watching HD video?

If the SD video is real-time, HD video delay is caused by the lack of video decoding ability. Some Android phones or older versions of apple’s phones, “such as the iphone 5”, if the HD video decoding ability is insufficient, it will lead to the decoding speed too slow, which looks like a video delay.

How do I install and mount my Arlo Solar Panel

M.Salih ASLAN — Sat, 15 Apr 2023 14:36:43 +0000

How do I install and mount my Arlo Solar Panel?

There are three Arlo Solar Panels designed to work with Arlo cameras. To know which Arlo Solar Panel is compatible with your camera, visit: Arlo Solar Panel Compatibility

You can use Arlo Solar Panels in any outdoor location that falls within the solar panel’s operating temperature range of 32° to 113°F (0° to 45°C). For safety reasons, the Arlo Solar Panel cannot charge your camera battery at temperatures below freezing.

To set up your Arlo Solar Panel:

Choose a good outdoor location for your Arlo Solar Panel, within 4.5 feet (1.3 meters) of your Arlo camera.
The Arlo Solar Panel can absorb the most solar energy when it is in full sunlight for as much of the day as possible. You can mount the Arlo Solar Panel on your wall, fence, roof, gutter, or eaves. Make sure that you mount your Arlo Solar Panel facing true south (in the northern hemisphere) or true north (in the southern hemisphere).
Secure the mount with the screws provided in the package.
Attach your Arlo Solar Panel to the mount.
Adjust the angle of the Arlo Solar Panel on the mount to the appropriate angle for your latitude.
Make sure that your Arlo camera battery is fully charged.
Note: Your Arlo Solar Panel is designed to keep your camera battery charged, not to charge the battery from low to full.
Connect the Arlo Solar Panel cable to your Arlo camera.

Warning: Do not unplug the cable from your Arlo Solar Panel. This can damage the cable and the Arlo Solar Panel.

Note: The charging icon will not immediately appear in the Arlo Secure app. If you want to confirm that your camera is charging, you can wait for the charging icon to appear, or you can check the camera’s battery percentage in the Arlo Secure app from day to day. For more information on battery charging icons, visit: What do my Arlo camera’s battery level icons and notifications mean?

How do I position the Arlo Solar Panel to get the most sunlight?

The amount of energy that the Arlo Solar Panel can produce depends on several factors: average sun exposure, weather conditions, tilt angle, and dust or debris. A solar panel in the same location might produce a different amount of energy at noon in December than at noon in June.

Similarly, the same panel might produce more energy in one geographic location and less in another. In both situations, the difference is based mainly on the amount of sunlight that the solar panel receives. To see a world map of average sun exposure, visit: http://globalsolaratlas.info/?m=sg:dni

To optimize the effectiveness of your solar panel, do the following:

Choose a location for your solar panel that gets plenty of sunlight; try to avoid spots that are in the shade for a significant portion of the day.
Mount your solar panel facing true south (in the northern hemisphere) or true north (in the southern hemisphere) and tilt it to the appropriate angle for your latitude.
Wipe the panel every few months to remove dust or debris that might affect the solar energy-harvesting efficiency of the panel.

For more information about the Arlo Solar Panel, see the following knowledge base articles:

To purchase the Arlo Solar Panel, visit: Arlo Accessories

How to troubleshoot Arlo Solar Panel charging issues

If the Arlo Solar Panel is not keeping your Arlo camera charged, follow the troubleshooting steps below.

Note: Charge your Arlo camera before using it with the Arlo Solar Panel. The Arlo Solar Panel is meant to keep your camera charged, not to charge it from low to full battery.

To troubleshoot issues with your Arlo Solar Panel:

Check the solar icons in the Arlo Secure App to determine the charging state.If a solar panel is used, the following icons display:

Solar Icon	Battery Icon(s)	Meaning
		Battery Fully Charged Note: It is possible that these icons will only display for a few minutes and then revert to gray.
		Battery Charging
		Battery Not Charging Note: If the battery is too cold or too hot, the battery will not charge.
No Icon		Battery or Charger Status Unavailable

Confirm the Arlo Solar Panel is compatible with your camera by visiting the following link: Arlo Solar Panel Compatibility.
Unplug and reconnect the cable from your camera. Check the condition of the cable to confirm there are no exposed or damaged wires.
Make sure that your solar panel is pointed toward the sun and is not obstructed by trees, buildings, or other obstacles.
For more information, visit How do I position the Arlo Solar Panel to get the most sunlight?.
Make sure that your Arlo camera is not in temperatures below freezing.
For safety reasons, your Arlo camera battery cannot charge in temperatures below 32°F (0° C).
Make sure that a battery is inserted into the Arlo camera that you are charging with the Arlo Solar Panel.
The solar panel charges the battery, but it can’t power the camera if no battery is inserted.
Make sure that your camera’s battery is fully charged when you connect the solar panel to your camera.
The Arlo Solar Panel is designed to provide trickle charging to keep your camera battery charged, not to charge your camera battery from low to full.
Reduce your camera usage for a day or two and note your camera’s battery level.
Heavy usage of your camera can drain the camera battery faster than the solar panel can recharge it, especially with poor sun exposure.
Clean the panel with a lightly damp cloth to remove dirt and debris from the surface.

Arlo Solar Panel Compatibility

With the Arlo Solar Panel connected to the camera and receiving average sun exposure, your camera battery stays charged, so you don’t need to worry about recharging it. The solar panel is a great low-maintenance solution for outdoor camera installations in hard-to-reach areas.

Although the Arlo Solar Panel is designed to keep your Arlo camera’s battery fully charged, heavy usage of your camera can drain the camera battery faster than the solar panel can recharge it. The 2-watt Arlo Solar Panel is designed to provide year-round trickle charging to keep your Arlo camera battery charged, not to charge your camera battery from low to full.
