The eufyCam S4 is designed to deliver advanced video capture capabilities, ensuring every detail is recorded when it matters most. This guide explains how to set up and optimize three key features: Snapshot, Pre-Record, and Continuous Recording.

Setting Up Continuous Recording

To enable Continuous Recording, follow these steps:

1. Open the eufy app.

2. Navigate to Camera Settings > Power Management > Direct Power > Advanced Settings.

3. Enable Continuous Recording.

Additional Requirements:

• Storage: Continuous Recording requires HomeBase 3 equipped with a hard drive to store video footage.

• Power Supply:

  • The camera includes a 1.2-meter USB Type-C power cable.

  • For extended reach, you can use the 3-meter solar panel extension cable (maximum total length: 4.2 meters).
