Preparing Your EOJO Camera for the Holiday Season

Preparing Your EOJO Camera for the Holiday Season

The holiday season is a time for celebration, travel, and spending quality moments with loved ones. However, it’s also important to ensure that your home remains safe and secure while you're away. Your EOJO camera can be a powerful tool to keep an eye on things back home. Here’s how to optimize your device and some general security tips to make your holiday travels worry-free.

1. Make Your Camera Less Visible

To ensure your EOJO device is discreet and doesn’t draw attention from outside your home:

  • Open the EOJO App and navigate to Device Settings.
  • Go to Basic Settings and look for the Indicator Light option.
  • Switch the Indicator Light to Off mode.

This will turn off the LED light on the device, making it less noticeable to anyone looking in from outside while still keeping the camera fully operational.

2. Adjust Motion and Human Detection Settings

When you're away from home, it's critical to capture every movement in your space. To do this:

  • Open the EOJO App and go to Device Settings.
  • Under Person Detection or Motion Detection, find Parameter Settings.
  • Set the Sensitivity to High.

This ensures that your EOJO camera detects even the slightest motion, so you won’t miss any unusual activity while you're enjoying the holidays.

3. General Holiday Security Tips

While your EOJO camera is an excellent first line of defense, consider these additional measures for complete peace of mind:

Double-Check Doors and Windows
  • Ensure all doors and windows are securely locked before leaving. Consider adding a secondary locking mechanism for added security.
Use Timers for Lights
  • Set timers on a few lights to make it appear as if someone is home. This simple trick can deter potential intruders.
Inform a Trusted Neighbor
  • Let a trusted neighbor know you’ll be away, and ask them to keep an eye on your property.
Limit Social Media Updates
  • Avoid sharing your travel plans online until after you return to prevent unwanted attention to your empty home.

4. Test Your EOJO Camera Before Leaving

Before heading out, test your EOJO camera to ensure it's functioning correctly. Check:

  • The live view and playback features.
  • Motion detection settings and alerts.
  • Your subscription plan to ensure uninterrupted cloud storage access.

Peace of Mind While You’re Away

Your EOJO camera is designed to provide security and peace of mind during the holiday season. By following these steps and tips, you can ensure your home stays safe while you enjoy your well-deserved time away.
