Do this first. 1. Turn on Nest Cam indoors 2. Add it to your Nest account Start by turning on your camera inside the house to get everything set up before you take it outside. Download the Nest app from the App Store or Google Play. Open the app and tap “Sign up” to create an account. Then tap “Add”, choose Nest Cam and follow the instructions. Connect your Nest Cam’s cable to the power adaptor. Push and twist the USB connector into place. Then plug the adaptor into a power socket.
3. Take your camera outside 4. Make sure that it’s streaming Once you’ve added Nest Cam to your account, unplug it and take it outdoors to the spot that you’ve chosen. Before you mount the camera, make sure that it can get Wi-Fi in the spot that you’ve chosen. Plug it into the socket that you want to use and wait for the green light to come on. Nest Cam will reconnect to your Wi-Fi network automatically. This may take a minute or two. Keep Nest Cam plugged in for the rest of the installation process.
Choose the best place. Avoid direct sunlight. Keep it in range of your router. Nest Cam Outdoor is designed to operate between -20° to 40 °C. If it gets hotter or colder, image quality may be affected. Make sure that you choose a place within range of your network. Thick or insulated walls can greatly reduce the strength of your Wi-Fi signal, even if your router is close by, so you should try streaming video before you mount your camera. Learn more at nest.
3m 2m 1m Consider the surroundings. Place it up high. Is a pole, plant or porch light blocking the view? It might throw off exposure or interfere with Night Vision. If you start noticing glare, adjust the camera so that the horizon is out of frame. But not too high. We find that 2 to 3 metres above the ground, tilted downwards, is best – close enough to see someone’s face and talk to them through the camera. Check the video in the Nest app to make sure that Nest Cam can see what you want to see.
Mount your camera. 5. Place the mounting magnet 6. Attach the camera Screw the wall plate onto your wall. It’s a good idea to drill pilot holes first. If the wall is made of a material like brick or stone, you may need to use the wall anchors included to hold the screws. Put Nest Cam onto the mounting magnet and aim it wherever you like. Use the video stream in the Nest app to fine-tune your camera’s position. Next, put the magnet onto the wall plate.
7. Mount the power adapter 8. Secure the cable Before you mount the power adaptor to the wall, take a moment to plan the route of the cable from your socket to the camera. Make sure that you leave some slack at both ends. Fasten the cable to the wall using as many cable clips as you need. We recommend using the flat clips for the USB cable and the rounded clips for the adaptor cable.
Want to use Talk & Listen? Nest Cam Outdoor’s microphone is turned off by default. To enable Talk & listen and sound alerts, you need to turn on your mic under the camera settings in the Nest app.
