When the motion tracking function is on, the camera will automatically start recording. The camera can detect the presence of people, vehicles, pets, etc. and begin recording upon detection. Sensitivity levels can be adjusted if motion detection is triggering abnormally. 

The PIR motion sensor that detects movement is more sensitive to movements ACROSS the camera's field of view, more so than movements directly toward or away from the camera. The best installation scenario is one that has the camera at a 15° overlooking angle. 

Glass will reflect light and increase the complexity of the scene, affecting the live viewing and motion trigger effect. Therefore, we do not recommend using it through a window.

Yes. Only use solar panels with regulated 5V (or 6V) output. In addition, larger solar panels are preferred to provide ample current. We recommend using the FX solar panels here.

5GHz signal distance is weaker than 2.4GHz. Plus, the 2.4GHz wireless signal can penetrate walls and obstacles greater than that of 5GHz Wi-Fi.

Yes, a bad network environment will cause the camera to re-transmit data several times or even constantly re-connect to Wi-Fi, which will lead to faster battery consumption. Multiple layers of concrete walls, brick walls blocking, overcrowded wifi channels can cause a poor Wi-Fi usage environment.
