The WiLifeTM Outdoor camera has one LED indicator that provides the status of the camera. The status LED is located directly below the camera lens which is mounted at the camera front panel. It will indicate three different modes for the camera which are as follows:
1. Camera is seeking DHCP IP address from WiLife application
- Outdoor cameras will not operate with WiLife application version 1.4 or below. Outdoor cameras only work with release 1.5 and above
- With WiLife application version 1.5 or higher and camera firmware version of 1.43 or higher the camera will seek a DHCP address from the application
- WiLife application will serve a DHCP IP address to WiLife cameras with firmware version 1.43 or higher, otherwise the camera will assign itself an IP address in the 169.254.*.* domain.
- While the camera is seeking for a DHCP address, the status LED will blink slowly at about one blink for each second
-
- Wait for a minute for IP address assignment
2. Camera is waiting to be acknowledged by WiLife application
- Once the camera has received the DHCP IP address it will begin trying to stream video to WiLife application .
- While awaiting Werks to discover camera, status LED on camera will blink more rapidly, about 2 or 3 blinks per second
- LED blinking every 2 to 3 seconds indicates the camera is ready to be discovered by WiLife application
NOTE: If there is a delay finding the camera please go to Setup> Advanced and press “Find My Cameras". Locating camera nearer PC while it is being discovered is also recommended.
3. Camera is streaming video to the WiLife application
When the camera is streaming video to Werks then the status LED will become a motion indicator
- When motion is detected, the camera LED status light will slowly blink on and off while motion is present and will remain on when motion is no longer present
- While the status LED is in motion-indicator-mode, it can be turned off through the Werks application by clearing the “Enable Motion LED” checkbox found in the Setup> Camera dialog
- If the you want motion detection status LED reactivated then “Enable Motion LED” checkbox must be reset
4. Troubleshooting Camera when camera is powered on but NOT streaming video to the WiLife application
- If the camera is not streaming video and the status LED is on but not blinking the camera power should be cycled by unplugging from electrical connection, if camera never starts blinking after repeated power cycles then the camera may be defective. Caution: The LED may not blink for several seconds after power is applied
- If the camera is not streaming video and the status LED is off then power cycle, if the status LED is never on then the camera may be defective
- If the camera is not streaming and the status LED is blinking fast or slow, do each of the following in succession:
-
- Go to Setup> Advanced and press “Find My Cameras” and follow all suggested steps.
- Close and exit WiLife application then restart
