If your Xiaomi camera stays asleep, it could be due to several reasons. Sleep mode typically occurs when the camera is not actively detecting motion or cannot be accessed through the app. Check the camera settings in the MI Home app to make sure it is configured correctly and not set to a power saving mode. Make sure the camera is within range of your Wi-Fi network and the connection is stable. Also confirm that the firmware is up to date, as outdated firmware can cause operational issues.
To remove sleep mode on a Xiaomi camera, go to the MI Home app and navigate to the camera settings. Look for options related to power saving or sleep mode and adjust them according to your preferences. You may need to enable continuous recording or adjust motion detection settings to keep the camera active. If the camera has a replacement manual or schedule settings, make sure they are configured to keep the camera operational as desired.
To activate the camera on Xiaomi, make sure the camera is installed, powered and connected to your Wi-Fi network. Open the MI Home app and log in to your account. Tap the option to add a new device and select the camera from the list. Follow the on-screen instructions to connect the camera to your Wi-Fi network. Once the connection is established, you can configure additional settings such as motion detection, recording preferences, and notifications to complete the activation process.
To reset the Xiaomi camera, locate the camera reset button, usually found on the back or bottom of the device. Use a paper clip or similar tool to press and hold the reset button for about 10 to 15 seconds until the camera’s LED indicator flashes or changes color. Release the button and wait for the camera to restart. After the reset, you will need to set up the camera again via the MI Home app, following the initial setup instructions to reconnect it to your Wi-Fi network.
If your Xiaomi camera isn’t working, check out several potential issues. Make sure the camera is properly powered on and all connections are secure. Verify that the camera is within range of your Wi-Fi network and that the network is working properly. Restart the camera and your router to resolve any temporary connectivity issues. Check for firmware updates for the camera and make sure the MI Home app is up to date. If the issue persists, check the troubleshooting guide provided by Xiaomi or contact its customer support for further assistance.
