I removed the accessory in error and can't add the camera back. Its no longer found by HomeKit app through add new accessory. Any advise?

If HomeKit didn't properly unpair with hkcam, you have to manually remove the stored data on the Raspberry Pi.

ssh pi@raspberrypi.local
rm -rf /var/lib/hkcam/data

Then restart the daemon and hkcam should be available to HomeKit as a new accessory.

sv restart hkcamd
