This document serves as a comprehensive user manual for an EZVIZ camera, outlining its functions, installation, and operation. It also includes important legal disclaimers, trademark acknowledgements, and information regarding the responsible use of video products and waste equipment disposal.

The EZVIZ camera is designed for surveillance and monitoring, offering features for both wired and wireless internet connectivity. It provides live video streaming, recording capabilities, and various settings to customize its operation. The camera's hardware includes a lens, IR lights for night vision, a microphone for audio capture, a speaker for two-way communication, and an LED indicator for status. For storage, it supports a Micro SD card, which can be installed optionally. The device is powered by a DC12V 1A power adapter and can be connected to a router via an Ethernet cable for a wired connection or wirelessly through Wi-Fi.

Function Description:

The EZVIZ camera primarily functions as a video surveillance device. It captures video and audio, allowing users to monitor a designated area remotely. The camera supports live view, enabling real-time observation of the monitored environment. It can record video clips and take snapshots, which are crucial for documenting events. The device incorporates IR lights, suggesting its capability for night vision, allowing it to function effectively in low-light or dark conditions. The presence of a microphone and speaker indicates support for two-way audio communication, enabling users to listen to the environment and speak through the camera. The camera's pan/tilt/zoom functionality allows for a broader field of view and the ability to focus on specific areas.

Usage Features:

The camera's usage is primarily managed through the EZVIZ app, available for download on smartphones.

• Live View: Users can access a live feed from the camera, take snapshots, record videos, and adjust video definition (Hi-Def or Basic) directly from the app. The app also supports multi-screen live view, allowing users to see multiple camera feeds simultaneously, and a Picture in Picture mode for viewing images taken by two lenses concurrently.
• Recording and Storage: The camera supports manual start/stop recording and stores footage on an optional Micro SD card. Cloud storage is also available, allowing users to subscribe to and manage their stored videos remotely. The app provides information on Micro SD card capacity, used space, and free space, and allows users to enable or disable cloud storage services.
• Audio Features: The camera can capture audio, and users have the option to disable it. It supports two audio modes: Intercom (press and hold to send voice messages) and Voice Call (tap to start a voice call).
• Connectivity: The camera offers flexible connectivity options. It can be connected to the internet via an Ethernet cable for a stable wired connection or wirelessly through Wi-Fi. The app allows users to change the Wi-Fi network if needed.
• Installation Flexibility: The camera can be installed in various locations, including ceiling mount and wall mount, as illustrated by the drilling templates provided. A waterproof kit is included for outdoor installations, ensuring durability against environmental elements.
• Security and Privacy: The camera includes features to enhance security and privacy. Image encryption can be enabled, requiring a password to access captured images. Users can also change this encryption password. The manual emphasizes the importance of responsible use of video products, urging users to comply with applicable laws and respect privacy.
• Notifications: Alarm notifications can be pushed to the app when targets are detected, keeping users informed of any activity. Users can enable or disable these notifications. Offline notifications are also available, alerting users if the camera goes offline.
• Device Management: The EZVIZ app provides comprehensive device management features. Users can view device version, access the user guide, and find product information such as category, model, serial number, and QR code. The app also allows users to restart the camera or delete it from the EZVIZ cloud. Importantly, deleting the camera from the cloud does not delete videos stored in the cloud, which can still be viewed if the camera is added again.

Maintenance Features:

• Firmware Updates: The manual states that information contained within is subject to change due to firmware updates, implying that the device receives regular software improvements. Users are directed to the EZVIZ website for the latest version of the manual, which would reflect any changes or new features introduced through firmware updates.
• Troubleshooting: While not explicitly detailed as a "maintenance feature," the provision of a user guide within the app and the ability to restart the camera serve as basic troubleshooting steps for users experiencing issues.
• Data Management: The ability to manage Micro SD card capacity and cloud storage helps users maintain their recording space and ensure continuous operation.
• Network Security: The manual advises users to establish and constantly optimize network security, which is a crucial aspect of maintaining the device's secure operation and protecting data.
• Waste Equipment Disposal: The manual includes detailed information on the separate collection and proper disposal of waste electrical and electronic equipment, including batteries. This guides users on environmentally responsible end-of-life management for the device. It also highlights the user's responsibility for deleting personal data from the device before disposal.
