How to Install SIM and MicroSD Cards in the Ezviz HB8 4G Battery-Powered Outdoor Camera

Welcome to TECH LOGICS! In this guide, we’ll walk you through the step-by-step process of installing a SIM card and a MicroSD card in your Ezviz HB8 4G Battery-Powered Outdoor Camera. Proper installation ensures seamless connectivity and ample storage for your surveillance needs. Whether you’re setting up the camera for home or business use, this easy-to-follow tutorial will have you up and running in no time. Let’s dive in!

Step 1: Power Off the Camera

Before handling the SIM or MicroSD cards, ensure the camera is powered off. This prevents potential damage to the device or cards and avoids connectivity issues later. Safety first!

Step 2: Access the Card Slots

The SIM and MicroSD card slots are located at the bottom of the camera’s rotating lens assembly. To access them:

1. Gently lift the camera lens upward to reveal the internal section.
2. Take your time to avoid accidental damage to the lens or other components.
3. Locate the protective cap covering the card slots and carefully remove it. Hold the cap steady to prevent dropping or breaking any parts. This cap protects the slots from dust and moisture.

Note: You’ll need a Phillips head screwdriver to remove the screws securing the protective case.

Step 3: Identify the Card Slots

With the protective cap removed, you’ll see two slots:

• Top slot: For the MicroSD card.
• Bottom slot: For the SIM card.

Each slot is labeled or marked with icons indicating the correct orientation for card insertion. Double-check these markers to ensure proper placement.

Step 4: Insert the MicroSD Card

The Ezviz HB8 supports MicroSD cards up to 512 GB, providing ample storage for continuous or motion-triggered recordings. Here’s how to insert the card:

1. Choose a high-quality MicroSD card for optimal performance.
2. Align the card with the top slot’s indicated orientation.
3. Gently push the card in until you hear or feel a click, confirming it’s securely seated.

Proper insertion ensures reliable data storage. To remove the card later, gently press it again, and it will pop out.

Storage Tip: A 512 GB MicroSD card can store 10 to 15 days of footage, depending on settings like video quality, resolution, frame rate, and recording mode (continuous or motion-triggered). Plan your storage needs based on these factors.

Step 5: Insert the SIM Card

The SIM card slot is located just below the MicroSD slot. To install the SIM card:

1. Align the SIM card with the slot’s marked orientation.
2. Gently insert the card until it’s securely in place.

Correct alignment ensures strong connectivity and prevents issues with device recognition or signal strength.

Step 6: Replace the Protective Cover

Once both cards are inserted:

1. Carefully position the protective cover back over the slots, ensuring a snug fit.
2. Use a Phillips head screwdriver to fasten the screws and secure the case. This protects the cards from dust, moisture, and accidental dislodging.

Step 7: Power On and Configure

With everything securely in place, power on the camera. Verify that the SIM and MicroSD cards are recognized by the device. You can now configure the camera, including:

• Connecting to your network via the SIM card’s 4G capabilities.
• Setting recording modes (continuous or motion-triggered).
• Customizing other preferences to suit your surveillance needs.

Final Thoughts

Congratulations! You’ve successfully installed the SIM and MicroSD cards in your Ezviz HB8 4G Camera. With mobile connectivity and ample storage, your camera is ready to provide reliable surveillance for your home or business.
