Remove all items from the box.
*Please note you will require a SIM card to set up and operate the 4G camera (any UK network). Additionally if you wish to record footage, you will require a micro SD card.
1. Fully charge the camera before attempting to set up or install by plugging in to a mains electricity socket using the provided cable. The red light will illuminate when charging and go out when fully charged. Do monitor this, but we recommend anything up to 6hrs.
2. Activate your chosen SIM card, following the instructions from the network provider. (If you have purchased from us, it is 1P Mobile on EE network)
3. Insert SIM card into SIM slot until it clicks (this is located underneath the silicone cover labelled TF & Reset). You can use the reverse of the tweezers to push the SIM in far enough to feel the 'click'.
4. Insert a micro SD Card card into the slot labelled 'TF'
5. Close the waterproof silicone cover to ensure the SD card and SIM are protected from the elements.
6. Move the power switch to 'ON': You will see LED flash Red, then flash Blue. Wait until you see a constant Blue light meaning 4G network found
7. Download UBOX app on your phone (App Store for iPhone) (Google Play for Android).
8. Open App. Add Location name (E.g Home, Storage, Sheep Shed). Click 'Next' and 'Finish'
9. Click Your New Location, then select 'Add Device' select 'customize' and name the device/camera (E.g. Entrance)
10. Select 'Set Up 4G Device'
11. Check your device LED status is a constant Blue and not flashing (meaning it is connected to the SIMs network). Click 'Next'
12. The App will ask you to scan the QR code printed on the camera label with your smartphone
13. Wait until you see 100%, then enter name and address
14. The camera has now been set up successfully
15. Click the Device/Camera's Image/Name (Eg 'Sheep Shed' 'Entrance Camera')
16. Click the 'Settings' cog and select 'Memory Card', then select 'Format SD Card' until you see 'Formatted Successfully'
17. Physically install the camera using the supplied drilling / screw template, brackets and screws.
18. If using outdoors, position the solar panel where it is likely to receive the strongest daylight/sun in terms of minimal obstruction and direction, then plug in the solar panel into the DC 5V socket on the camera.
19. If using indoors, plug in the supplied micro USB cable into the DC 5V socket on the camera and connect to a mains power socket.
