After your smartphone is connected to the WiFi network, you will need to enter your WiFi password. This will be the password for the WiFi network that your Zmodo camera will connect to. Ensure that you enter the password carefully and correctly, as it is case-sensitive.
If you are connecting a Beam, the SSID (wireless signal name) should be "AP_ZMD". For any other 'Zink' WiFi device, the SSID should be "ZMD_SAP". The network name (SSID) must not include spaces and must not be hidden. For example, "My Router" will not work, but "My_Router" will. You can access your router's settings to change the SSID if needed.
Once you have entered the correct WiFi password and SSID, your Zmodo device will automatically connect to the WiFi network. This may take a few minutes.

Name your device
Once you have successfully connected your Zmodo Pan 360 camera to the internet, you will be prompted to name your device. You can select a unique name, or you can name it after its location or function. For example, if you are using the camera to monitor your living room, you could name the device "Living Room Camera". Alternatively, if you are using the camera for outdoor surveillance, you could name it "Outdoor Security Camera".
Another approach is to name the device based on its specific model or series. For instance, if you own multiple Zmodo cameras, you could name this particular device based on its model number or series name. This approach can be especially helpful if you plan to manage multiple devices within the same ecosystem.
You also have the option to name the device based on its intended use case or a specific feature it offers. For example, if you primarily use the camera for motion detection and alerts, you could name it "Motion Alert Camera". If you use the camera for two-way communication, you could name it "Two-Way Talk Camera".
Additionally, you can choose to name the device based on its location and function simultaneously. For instance, if you have a Zmodo camera installed in your backyard, you could name it "Backyard Surveillance Camera". This approach provides a clear indication of both the location and the purpose of the device.
Remember, the naming convention you choose should ultimately help you easily identify and manage your Zmodo Pan 360 camera within your connected device ecosystem.
