HD WiFi Indoor / Outdoor Camera Kit Quick Start Guide
1 Mobile Setup This quick start guide will help you configure your WiFi camera kit for initial use. Before performing any permanent installation, we recommend that you complete the mobile setup in Section 1 to connect your cameras and make sure that nothing was damaged during shipping. Before you begin: Plug in and power on all cameras near your router for initial setup. Fasten the antennas (if applicable) onto the cameras. Make sure that you have a strong WiFi connection at the location of your cameras.
1 Log in and press the Add Device + option in the upper right corner of the Home Page. 2 Select the "QR Code" connection method to connect your device(s). Your device(s) will be added to your Zmodo account. You can follow the in-app instructions or refer to steps 3-9 to complete setup. 3 Power on your device(s). The status light will blink green when the device has powered on. Tap "Next" to proceed.
Turn up the volume on your phone for voice prompts during the mobile setup process. Tap "Next" to proceed. 5 Connect your phone to the 2.4GHz WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK WiFi network that you want your device(s) to connect to (network cannot be hidden). Tap "Next" to proceed. 6 Enter the password of the WiFi that you want your device(s) to connect to. Please make sure that your WiFi password is correct. Tap “Next” to proceed. Note: The WiFi password is case-sensitive.
7 Steadily hold your phone's display in front of your Zmodo camera until you hear “Device connected”. The distance between your phone and the camera should be about 8 inches. 8 Name your device(s) and set a password for it. Tap "Next" to proceed. Note: The password provides an additional layer of security for your devices. You will not need to use this password when accessing your devices from the Zmodo app. It is not required, but it is highly recommended.
2 Mounting Your Cameras Installation Requirements & Tips: If you’re installing your cameras outdoors, all wired connections must be weatherproofed. Before installing the cameras, carefully plan where and how they will be positioned, and how you will route the wiring that connects your cameras to the power adapters. Try to avoid WiFi signal interference from concrete, cement, and metal as much as possible.
2 Line the camera bracket against the wall where you would like to install the cameras, and mark the appropriate holes. Drill three holes slightly smaller than the wall anchors and use a hammer to gently insert the anchors into the wall. Fasten the three screws through the holes on the bracket and into the anchors as shown. Note: Depending on the camera model that you purchased, the camera bracket may or may not be fastened onto the camera when first removed from factory packaging.
3 Fasten the bracket to the camera. You will be able to adjust the camera position using the adjustable camera bracket. Position the camera for an optimal viewing angle, and tighten the bracket. (image may vary for your specific camera model) 4 Connect the supplied power adapter to the power port on the camera, and plug the adapter into a nearby power outlet. Repeat steps 1-4 for all cameras in your camera kit.
