Product Overview
The Mi 360° Camera (1080p) is a high-quality security camera designed for indoor monitoring. The package includes the camera, a power cable, a wall mounting kit, and documentation. The device features a rotatable lens, a built-in microphone, and a speaker for two-way communication. It also includes a MicroSD card slot for local storage and a reset button for factory settings.
Installation
The camera can be placed on a flat surface like a table or mounted on a wall. To mount it on a wall, mark the positions for the base mounting holes, drill two holes (approx. 6mm diameter, 30mm depth), insert plastic wall plugs, and secure the base with screws. Align the grooves on the bottom of the camera with the raised part on the base and rotate clockwise to lock it in place.
Setup and App Integration
To start using the camera, connect the power cable to the Micro-USB port. The indicator will flash orange. Download the Mi Home/Xiaomi Home app, open it, and tap the '+' icon to add your device. Follow the on-screen instructions to connect the camera to your Wi-Fi network. Once successfully connected, the indicator will turn blue.
Usage and Features
The camera supports real-time monitoring, infrared night vision (up to 9 meters), and motion detection via the Home Surveillance Assistant. You can record videos, take screenshots, and adjust settings like resolution and viewing angle through the app. If a MicroSD card is inserted, the camera automatically records footage, which can be played back at up to 16x speed.
Maintenance and Safety
Keep the camera in a dry environment with a temperature range between -10°C and 40°C. Avoid placing it near reflective surfaces like glass or white walls to prevent overexposure. Ensure a strong Wi-Fi signal and keep the device away from metal objects or microwaves. Clean the surface only with a soft, dry cloth. Do not attempt to disassemble the device yourself; contact authorized service centers for repairs.
