RECONNECTING DEVICES
RECONNECTING: WHEN USING THE SAME WI-FI
To reconnect your IP Camera to the Vivitar Smart Home Security app, please check that you are
using the same Wi-Fi configuration as was used to set up your IP Camera.
1. Make sure your IP Camera is plugged in and powered on.
2. Launch the Vivitar Smart Home Security app.
3. Tap IP Cameras from the ‘Devices’ home screen.
4. To select your IP Camera, tap your IP Camera’s video thumbnail as shown in the ‘IP
Cameras’ screen.
5. The connection should automatically refresh, and the Live IP Camera view screen opens.
RECONNECTING: WHEN CHANGING TO A DIFFERENT WI-FI
To reconnect your IP Camera to the Vivitar Smart Home Security app when you change to a
different Wi-Fi, please LONG RESET the camera using the reset tool so that the Wi-Fi
configuration to connect the devices can be reset.
This means that when you place your already added IP Camera in a location with a different Wi-
Fi than the one used when the device was added, please follow the steps below to long reset
your IP Camera:
LONG RESET
1. Plug in your IP Camera and make sure it is powered on.
Please remember that this Long Reset is needed only when resetting the camera’s Wi-Fi to a
new Wi-Fi. It is used when the current location has a Wi-Fi that is different than the one used
to add the camera initially.
2. About 5 seconds after your IP Camera has been plugged in, the camera emits ‘Please wait
for Wi-Fi Connecting’ and the blue LED light blinks.
3. Use the Setup Tool (supplied) or a small pin to press the RESET button (hole) on the back of
the camera. Press and hold the reset button for approximately 30 seconds.
