Pulsar Stream Vision 2 App Guide

Install Stream Vision 2 from the Apple App Store or Google Play, then pair over the device's built-in Wi-Fi:

• Turn on the Pulsar device and enable Wi-Fi in its menu.
• On your phone, open Wi-Fi settings and join the network the device broadcasts, entering the default password from the device menu or manual.
• Open Stream Vision 2; it should detect the connected device and show the live thermal view.

If pairing fails, confirm the phone is on the device's own network (not your home Wi-Fi), that the device firmware is current, and that you granted the app local-network and location permissions, which some phones require for Wi-Fi discovery. Changing the device's default Wi-Fi password in the menu is good practice once pairing works.

Once connected, the app mirrors the device display in real time, which is useful for sharing a stalk, teaching a new shooter, or lining up a recording. You can start and stop recording from the phone, and files saved on the device can be transferred to the app's gallery over Wi-Fi for review or sharing. Streaming and recording both draw extra power from the device, so expect shorter runtime with the app connected and keep a charged spare pack on hand. For long sessions, record to the device and transfer later rather than streaming continuously.

Firmware updates fix bugs, add features, and sometimes improve image processing, so keeping current is worth the few minutes it takes. The app handles updates once paired:

• Charge the device fully, or keep a spare ready - never update on a low battery.
• Connect the device to Stream Vision 2 over Wi-Fi as above.
• Make sure your phone has a working internet connection so the app can fetch the update, then connect back to the device's Wi-Fi when prompted.
• Open the device or firmware section in the app; if an update is available, start it and leave the device powered and in range until it completes.
• Do not power off the device mid-update.

After the update, the device may restart. If it does not reconnect, toggle Wi-Fi off and on and rejoin the network.

Most app problems are Wi-Fi handshakes, not faults. Run through these before assuming a defect:

• Confirm your phone is joined to the device's network and has not auto-switched back to a stronger home network.
• Grant Stream Vision 2 the location and local-network permissions it requests; several phones block device discovery without them.
• Force-close and reopen the app, then re-enable Wi-Fi on the device.
• Keep the phone within a few feet during pairing - thermal device Wi-Fi is short range.
• Update both the app and the device firmware; a large version gap between them is a frequent cause of failed pairing.
