SwannEye Plus App Camera Setup
The SwannEye Plus app is great for on-the-fly monitoring, but before you can actually start
watching anything, you need to first register the camera with the app.
The SwannEye Plus app has some limitations - you can’t record videos and there isn’t any split
screen display. For these, you have to use the Windows software.
Registering the Camera
1
Tap
to display the
Add Camera
screen.
2
If you are connected to the same network as your
camera (typically if your phone or tablet is connected to
your Wi-Fi at home and so is your camera) you will see
“Camera Found! (1)” as shown on the right. Simply tap
the UID of the discovered camera and finish the details
as per steps 4 and 5 below. Note if you have more than
one camera on your network you see more camera
UIDs in this list, set each one up separately.
3
If the camera is on a different network such as the
mobile network or the auto search did not find it, simply
tap
and use your smartphone’s camera to
scan the QR code sticker which you will find on the
bottom of the camera. This automatically populates the
UID
box with the camera’s UID, then just follow steps 4
and 5 to finish off.
Or if you prefer to do it manually, tap
and
type the camera’s UID in the
UID
box carefully. Note
that the UID is case sensitive so make sure you use the
correct types of letters and number or it won’t connect.
4
Enter the camera’s password (default is 123456 but we
recommend you change this using the software on your
PC as soon as possible) in the
Password
box.
5
Tap the
Name
box and then enter a unique name for the
camera. We suggest calling it something that can help
you identify it easily. When you’re finished, tap
to
return to the
Camera List
screen.
