Choosing and Compatibility

When selecting the E1 Zoom, it is important to note that this camera is strictly for indoor use. Users should ensure their home network is compatible with Wi-Fi 6 to take full advantage of the improved stability and performance, though it remains backward compatible. The camera offers multiple storage paths, including local microSD card recording or integration with a Reolink NVR or Home Hub, providing flexibility based on your existing infrastructure. During setup, the Bluetooth-enabled installation process simplifies the connection to your mobile device, provided the camera is placed within range during the initial configuration.

Operational Considerations

The E1 Zoom allows for simultaneous use of two detection modes, such as person and pet tracking or crying sound detection, which helps tailor the alerts to your specific household needs. While the camera supports various mounting options including wall, ceiling, or desk placement, users should verify their mounting surface requirements. Because it is an indoor-only device, it should not be installed in outdoor or semi-outdoor environments, even if sheltered, to maintain product longevity and performance standards.

Can I use person, pet, and crying sound detection simultaneously?

The E1 Zoom supports these detection modes, but you can only have two of them active at the same time.

Is the E1 Zoom suitable for outdoor use?

No, the E1 Zoom is designed exclusively for indoor use. It should not be installed outdoors.

How is the camera powered?

The camera requires a 5V/2A DC power adapter, which is included in the package along with a 3-meter cable.
