Meet your Arlo Pro 2

You can use your camera wirelessly on battery power, or while plugged into an AC power outlet. Plugging in your camera unlocks more features.

When your camera detects motion, it uses a WiFi connection to your Arlo Pro base station to stream video to your Arlo account in the cloud.

Meet your Arlo Pro 2Meet your Arlo Pro 2 Step 2

Your Arlo Pro 2 system includes the following:

  • Arlo app and Arlo account. Use the Arlo app to set up and manage your Arlo account and devices.
  • Base station. The base station connects to the Internet and streams your camera feeds to your Arlo account in the cloud.
  • Arlo Pro 2 cameras. Set up your cameras to detect motion and sound based on a schedule or all the time. Your cameras come with these accessories:
    • Rechargeable battery. When you use your camera wirelessly, it runs on battery power.
    • AC power adapter. Connect your camera to an indoor electrical outlet to unlock more features and charge the battery. (The outdoor AC power adapter is sold separately.)
    • Mounts. Use wall mounts to place your cameras.

Power your camera Step 2

  • For AC power indoor use, connect the AC power adapter to an indoor electrical outlet.
  • If you want to use an outdoor AC power connection, you need the Arlo Pro 2 outdoor power adapter (sold separately).

Place or mount your camera

You can place your camera on a flat surface or you can mount it on a wall. Choose a location with a clear, unblocked field of view and with a good signal to your base station.

Note: WiFi range can be affected by building materials or objects that block WiFi signals and by interference from other WiFi networks.

To use the wall mount:

  1. Fasten the mounting screw into the wall. If you're mounting the camera on drywall, use the plastic drywall anchors we provide.
  2. Hang the mount from the screw.
    Place or mount your camera

You're done!

Use the Arlo app to see your camera feed, to arm and disarm your camera, and more.

Tip: Use the Arlo app in Position mode (found in Camera Settings) to help aim your camera.
