Troubleshooting

Webcam not detected by the computer

Ensure the USB cable is securely connected to both the webcam and the computer. Try connecting to a different USB port. If using a USB hub, connect directly to the computer. Restart your computer and try again.

Poor video quality or low resolution

Verify that the webcam is selected as the primary camera in your video conferencing application. For 2K QHD resolution, ensure you are using a compatible third-party application that supports this setting. Check your internet connection, as poor bandwidth can affect video quality.

Microphone not working or picking up low audio

Confirm that the webcam's microphone is selected as the default audio input device in your computer's sound settings and within your video conferencing application. Check the microphone volume levels. Ensure the SmartComms Kit (if enabled) is configured correctly.

Image is blurry

Ensure the lens is clean. Manually focus by adjusting the webcam's position or zooming in/out slightly. Check if there is a protective film on the lens that needs to be removed.
