I have tried 10 times to connect and nothing I do works. Hate this camera!!!!!
Carol I did the same thing!! I finally got it to work by pressing the on/off button on the camera over and over while pointing it at the barcode. For whatever reason, this worked! 🙃
Me too
Software outdated and getting internal server error
I have been using Adorcam for a couple of years and been very pleased with it. Suddenly, I can still get a live feed, but cannot get any historical feed, although it still alerts me when there is activity. This makes the camera useless, as when I get an alert, by the time I look at it, the event is over. I keep getting an Error code 5. Any assistance in solving this would be appreciated.
I’ve been trying to get my camera to recognize the QR code to set it up. Nothing is working.
Cut my camera OFF while charging-Big mistake! Now all I hear from camera is beeping sound and a Voice Saying ” waiting for connection”.
