Trouble Shooting:
 
  • I just get a white screen with a spinning indicator:
    A common cause is there is NO password is assigned to the camera. Please just add a user to the camera and assign it a password.

  • I just get a white screen with a spinning indicator:
    A common cause is users are entering "http://" in the URL field. This is not required, please try removing the "http://" (I have corrected this in version 1.3 to be in the app store as a free update by May 11th)

  • I just get a white screen for my Foscam camera:
    I have seen where the "Mode" of the camera is set to "50hz" or "60hz" instead of "Outdoor" This causes the camera to display a white screen because the camera is very sensitive to light. Try changing the mode to "Outdoor"

  • Operating and setting the presets on Foscam cameras:
    It appears that Foscam camera have the presets disabled by default. Therefore you will need to log in to your Foscam Camera via a browser, then go to the 'Device Management' screen then 'PTZ settings' then deselect the checkbox 'disable preset'

  NOTES FOR NET CAM:
If you are having trouble connecting to your camera but other apps connect just fine, it is most likely because you do not have a password assigned to on the camera.
It is good practice to protect your cameras with a password! for Panasonic & Axis cameras, you do not need to setup a password on the camera but you will have to enter one in 'Net Cam'... The camera will just ignore the password and connect. For Foscam cameras, you MUST add a username and password in the camera and in the 'Net Cam' app.
