Setup & Installation
Charge it fully, add it in the Tapo app, then mount it where the app shows a good Wi-Fi signal. Tapo says to mount battery cameras about 2 to 3 metres high, tilted down slightly, and not behind glass.
Tapo says to face the solar panel south in the UK, tilted at 35 to 45 degrees, with no leaves or buildings shading it.
Tapo’s reset guide says the C630’s Reset button is under a silicone cover: tilt the lens down to reach it.
