If you’re looking for the best solar CCTV camera, you’ll love how easy installation can be. Let’s dive into the step-by-step setup.

What’s in the Box?

When you unbox your solar camera, you’ll typically find:

  • Dome Camera
  • Solar Panel
  • Bracket & Screw Kit
  • User Manual
  • SIM/SD Card Slot (for models supporting 4G storage)

Step 1: Install the Camera and Solar Panel

  1. Choose the right location: 
    • Place the camera 2.5m–3m high for the best view and PIR (motion sensor) accuracy.
    • Avoid placing it near air conditioners, fans, or glass that may interfere with motion detection. 
  2. Mount the camera: 
    • Use the provided bracket and screws to fix the camera on a wall or pole.
    • Ensure it is stable and facing the desired surveillance area. 
  3. Install the solar panel: 
    • Mount the solar panel outdoors, facing the sun for maximum charging efficiency.
    • Connect the solar panel cable to the camera.

Step 2: Insert SIM & SD Card

  1. Power off the device.
  2. Insert a 4G SIM card (with an active data plan) into the SIM slot.
  3. Insert a microSD card if you want local recording.
  4. Power on the device.

The LED Indicator will guide you:

  • Red light flashing = device powering on
  • Green light = connected to the network
  • Green flashing = upgrading/charging

Step 3: Connect with the Mobile App

  1. Download and install the “Manomay App” from the Play Store/App Store.
  2. Open the app → Tap “+ Add Camera”.
  3. Scan the QR code on the camera OR select Camera ID Add to enter details manually.
  4. Wait for the device to configure (100% loading).
  5. Name your device (e.g., “Home Entrance Solar Camera”).
  6. Tap Finish → Your live feed is ready!

Step 4: Fine-Tune Settings

  • Pan-Tilt Control: Adjust the camera angle directly from your phone.
  • Motion Detection Alerts: Enable push notifications for instant alerts.
  • Cloud or SD Storage: Choose your preferred recording option.
  • Two-Way Audio: Use the built-in speaker & mic to talk in real-time.

Pro Tips for Best Performance

  • Place the solar panel in direct sunlight for uninterrupted charging.
  • Ensure strong 4G/WiFi coverage at the installation site.
