live view screen. Choose a lullaby from the list, or you can select 

Play All

.

4.  How do I customize the lullabies on my camera?

  Visit the support page for your camera on the mydlink.com website for instructions on 

how to add your own music files to your camera.

5. 

I started the mydlink Baby Camera Monitor app, but I can’t find my camera.

•  Make sure your camera is turned on and receiving power.
•  If you are setting up a new camera, make sure your smartphone or tablet is connected  

to the camera’s Wi-Fi network (not to your wireless router). This also applies when you 
enable Direct Connect to use the camera away from home. (

See the “Advanced Features” 

section of the User Manual for details.) 

•  The Wi-Fi network name should be [myBabyCam-XXXX], where XXXX is a 4-digit code 

(the last 4 digits of your camera’s MAC address).

•  The Wi-Fi password is printed on a label on the bottom of your camera.
•  You can also find your camera’s  Wi-Fi network details on a label attached to the back 

of this Quick Install Guide.

•  If you still can’t find your camera, reset your camera by pressing its reset button for 10 

seconds while your camera is plugged in (see question 7 below).

6.  What does it mean when the Power LED is red? 

  When you power on the camera, the Power LED will be solid red. When you reset the 

camera, the Power LED will be flashing red.

7.  What can I do if I forget my password?

 

If you forget your password, you must reset the camera.  
Unfortunately, this process will  change all your settings back 
to factory default.  To reset the camera, locate the reset button 
on the back of the camera. With the camera powered on, use 
an unfolded paper clip to hold the button down for 10 seconds.
