Hubble cameras make great home surveillance options, but sometimes they have difficulty connecting with their monitors. Don’t panic if this occurs – here are steps you can follow to fix it: make sure both devices are powered on and connected to Wi-Fi; reboot both simultaneously until the problem goes away; if that fails contact Hubble customer support immediately for help.
1. Check the compatibility of your camera and monitor: Find a list of compatible devices by visiting [Hubble Connected Support]. If none of your current cameras or monitors work together, consider purchasing new cameras/monitors that do work together seamlessly.
2. Hard reset your camera: Resetting will erase any prior pairing information and restore your camera back to factory settings. To do this, hold down the “Pair” button on the back of the camera while turning it off and on again while still holding down “Pair”, until a flashing blue light indicates it is ready to pair with new devices.
3. Connect your camera and monitor to the same Wi-Fi network: Hubble cameras only support connecting to the 2.4GHz band, so if your router offers multiple bands it is imperative that both monitors are also connected to it. You can check this by pressing Menu > Wi-Fi on your monitor; here you should see your network name and signal strength displayed; if this information doesn’t appear you may need to scan available networks before selecting yours or move closer or use an extender device if signal strength decreases too quickly.
4. Change the input source on your monitor: Sometimes monitors do not automatically recognize cameras; to do this, manually selecting an input source from its menu can help. Pressing the Menu button and choosing Input displays a list of available input sources (HDMI, VGA and USB are among others), from which you must choose one matching your camera connection – for example if your camera connects through HDMI this would require selecting that as the input source.
5. Restart your camera and your monitor: Refresh your connection and resolve any temporary issues by switching off both the camera and monitor, waiting a few seconds, then powering them both back on. A green light should illuminate on the camera to indicate its connection with the monitor; and live video feed from it should appear on its monitor screen.
6. Make sure your monitor is within 30 feet of your camera: Bluetooth signals may become weak or blocked by metal objects or walls if devices are too far apart, to improve Bluetooth connections you should move your camera or monitor closer together and remove any obstacles which interfere with it.
7. Refresh your camera list in the Hubble app: Hubble app on your phone or tablet and tapping on the “Cameras” icon at the bottom of the screen may help update the status of your camera to indicate it as being online. Pull down on camera list using finger and you should see green dot next to name of camera which indicates its online status; live feed should also be visible.
8. Turn the camera off and on again: Restarting the camera may help reset and establish a new connection. To do this, press and release the ‘Power’ button on the back of the camera before waiting several seconds and pressing again – you should see a blue flashing light indicate readiness to pair, as well as receiving a message to press the ‘Pair’ button within 60 seconds and complete pairing process – beeping sound will indicate connection, with green lighting showing on camera as proof and live video feed displayed on monitor screen.
Follow this comprehensive step-by-step guide, and most Hubble camera monitor issues should be resolved quickly and easily. However, if any challenges persist don’t hesitate to reach out the [Hubble Connected Support] team as their expert service can offer additional diagnostics and tailored solutions to ensure that your smart home surveillance system runs seamlessly.
