Presence: Horrible Sound from Microphone - Is this normal?

Post by Ryan365 »

Hi All

I've purchased my first presence device. Everything seems OK except for the Microphone sound. It's a really loud white noise type of sound like the wind is blowing expressively but there isn't any wind. It also doesn't pickup anything when I shout at it. It doesn't record anything else. I tried to attach a video but it wouldn't allow .mov.

The app says the Firmware version is 135.

So my question is, is this normal or should I return the device for a replacement.

Thanks

Ryan

Interesting, I have two presence cameras and both make this wind type white noise. I can still hear other noises over it. Just thought it was normal.
