Camera images are not displayed, and [Loading...] is displayed for a long period when I try to view camera images while away from home R The protocol used for communication is not compatible with your network. →Set the [Remote Access Mode] setting to [TCP] ( "Remote access mode settings", Page 104). The camera's sensor is triggered too easily R The camera's motion detection features are too sensitive. →Reduce the sensitivity of the camera's sensors, see "Motion sensitivity", Page 98. R The camera's detection area is too large. →Limit the detection area so that the camera ignores motion in unneeded areas of the camera's image, i.e., reduce the camera's detection area ( "Detection area", Page 97). R The camera's settings are not suited to the environment. →Review the information in the Installation Guide included with your camera about sensor features and installation environment. →Front door cameras and outdoor cameras can detect motion visually (i.e., when an area of the camera's image changes brightness). For this reason, false detections may occur in the following locations. False detections caused by predictable movement in a specific area of the camera image - Areas where fixed objects move in the wind, such as tree branches or hanging laundry - Areas where animals move in a limited area, such as birds in a nest or small animals close to the ground - Areas where brightness significantly, such as when shadows form in the afternoon, lights turn on at night, or vehicles pass by at night with their headlights or brake lights on You can prevent these false detections by adjusting the position of the camera, by limiting the detection area so that the camera ignores motion in unneeded areas of the camera's image ( "Detection area", Page 97) or lowering the sensitivity of sensors ( "Motion sensitivity", Page 98). False detections caused by unpredictable movement in any area of the camera image - Areas where birds or flying insects move in front of the camera - Areas where rain, snow, hail, or tree leaves fall in front of the camera You can prevent these false detections by adjusting the position of the camera or lowering the sensitivity of sensors ( "Motion sensitivity", Page 98). [Ambient temperature is (too high) or (too low), camera operation will be interrupted.] is displayed R The camera is used in an environment with a temperature that exceeds -20 °C or 50 °C (-4 °F to 122 °F). →Use the camera in an environment with temperatures within -20 °C to 50 °C (-4 °F to 122 °F).
