5.3. Removing an OP500 Camera from an Existing Networ Group
To remove an OP500 Camera from an existing encrypted ConnectedLife net ork, you can press the
RESET button on the OP500 camera that you ant to remove. This ill return the OP500 back to
its factory default settings.
6. Enhancing the ConnectedLife Networ Performance
Neurona's ConnectedLife products leverage the home's existing electrical iring to create a robust
ConnectedLife net ork, therefore the actual performance of the net ork, and therefore quality of
the OP500 video image may be affected by electrical noise. To improve the performance and video
quality of your ConnectedLife Camera, please refer to suggestions belo hile setting up your
ConnectedLife products
6.1. AC Outlet Connections
•Avoid connecting Neurona products to an uninterruptible po er supply (UPS) or backup
po er supply device. For the best results, plug all ConnectedLife products directly into the
po er outlet.
•Avoid connecting high-po er consuming appliances to the same po er outlet.
•Avoid plugging ConnectedLife products into po er strips
6.2. Electrical Interference
Some household appliances may produce noise emission. If this noise emission spreads over the
home's electrical iring it ill affect your ConnectedLife net ork performance. For the best
possible results, e recommend using an electrical noise filter ith products / appliances such as:
•Battery chargers (including cell phone chargers), Vacuum cleaners, Hair dryers, Halogen light,
Po er drills, Lights or lamps ith touch-sensitivity feature supported
