first time you connect to the camera.

home. It is set during initial setup ( “Setting up the HD camera”, Page 149).
R You can change the password if necessary ( “Login password”, Page 170).
R When entering the camera’s password, you can enable the automatic login feature by turning on the

to log in to the camera automatically. You can turn the automatic login feature on and off later if
desired. See “[Automatic Login]”, Page 169.
General information
R Running the app while away from home when your mobile device is connected to a mobile network
(3G, 4G, etc.) may cause your mobile device’s battery to deplete faster than normal.
R If the app disconnects from the camera while away from home (such as when you turn your mobile
device’s screen off and then on, or you switch to another app and then return to the
[HomeHawk]
app), the app’s home screen will be displayed instead of the last screen you were viewing. Also note
that in this case, it may take some time for the app’s screen to be displayed.
Privacy information
Certain features of the app function by accessing your mobile device’s hardware, such as the
microphone, or the information stored in your mobile device. While using the app, a dialog may be
displayed that asks whether you want to allow the app to access these features of your mobile device.
You can change this setting later if desired in the privacy section of your mobile device’s
[Settings] app.
Displaying the options menu
The method used to display the options menu varies depending on your mobile device. Note that the
options menu is not available on all screens.
