Installation in HomeSeer
The HS-CAM-I is added to the HomeSeer HS3 software via the HomeSeer Mobile app, available on Android and iOS. If you are
not using the HomeSeer HS3 software, please review the "Installation without a HomeSeer system" section on page 2. It is not
recommended to affix the camera to any surface before it has been added to HomeSeer.
1. Use the provided power supply to power on the HS-CAM-I, then wait 30 seconds for the camera to finish booting up. The
lens will pan and tilt on its own when this process is complete.
2. Open the HomeSeer Mobile app on your Android or iOS device, then navigate to the Cameras section, found in the bottom
right corner.
3. Tap the Add Camera
4. The app will ask which model of camera is being added, select HS-CAM-I. Select or enter a Wi-Fi network (the SSID is case
sensitive) and enter its credentials. The HS-CAM-I will only recognize 2.4 GHz wireless networks.
Note: When using Android devices, HomeSeer Mobile will request locations permissions in order to send information
about your home Wi-Fi network to your camera. Your location data is not being tracked or stored by HomeSeer.
5. Give the camera a display name, click continue. The default username and password will automatically be populated. These
are printed on the bottom of the camera as well. When ready, click continue.
6. Enter a new secure admin password to prevent unauthorized access to your camera.
7. Manually tilt the lens of the HS-CAM-I so that it is looking up to the ceiling to expose the RESET button next to SD card slot).
Press and hold this button for 5 seconds until the blue LED below the lens starts to blink slowly. If the blue LED does not
activate, try using a solid object like a flat-head screwdriver to gently hold down the button. Advancing to the next screen
will create a QR code which the HS-CAM-I will read and use to connect to Wi-Fi.
8. Hold your mobile device directly in front of the camera so that the lens is in the center of the QR code. Slowly move the
mobile device away until it is ~10 inches (25cm) from the lens. The blue LED will blink rapidly when it has read the QR code.
If the QR code is not being seen by the camera, Increase the brightness of the mobile device running to max and try again.
9. Once the All done! screen appears, the camera has been added to your HomeSeer HS3 system! This can be seen from Tools
> Setup, under the Cameras tab in the HS3 Web interface or in the Cameras section of HomeSeer Mobile, where the on-
screen pan and tilt controls can be used to adjust your view.
