Install your Spotlight Cam

Risk of electrical shock.

If your local laws require it, installation and wiring must be performed by a licensed electrician.

Verify that the supply voltage is correct. Connect fixture to a 100 VAC~240 VAC 50/60 Hz power source.

Always follow electrical code standards when installing wired connections.

What's in the box?

Everything you need to install your Spotlight Cam is included.

How it All Fits Together

Installation Height and Motion Detection

When mounted at the recommended height (9 feet up, with the motion sensor parallel to the ground), your Spotlight Cam is optimized to detect human-sized objects at up to 30 feet.

Recommended Mounting Styles

When mounting to a vertical wall, you'll usually want the mounting port to point downwards.

When mounting to an overhang or eave, face the mounting port in the direction you want the camera to see.

Wall

Overhang or Eave

Installing on an overhang or eave?

Out of the box, your Spotlight Cam is set up for mounting on a vertical surface. To prepare it for horizontal mounting:

Unscrew the nut on the rear of the backbox cover, then pull Spotlight Cam and its wiring harness out of the cover.

Next, swivel the cover 180 degrees and reinsert Spotlight Cam. Finally, retighten the nut on the rear of the cover.

Shut power off at the fusebox

If you don't know where your fusebox is or how to turn off power to the circuit you want to use, consult with a licensed electrician.

If your local laws require it, hire a licensed electrician to complete all installation and wiring.

Cut the grommet

The included backbox has two cable inlets with rubber grommets. Choose the inlet that suits your install location, then get out the scissors.

Cut off the end of the grommet cone at a point where it's a bit narrower than your cable. If you're routing the cable through the rear, insert it now.

Prepare the backbox

If you haven't already, push your power cable into the box through the grommet you cut.

Drive two of the included Mounting Screws through the holes on either side of the backbox to secure it.

If installing on a hard surface like brick or stucco, pre-drill these holes with the included bit and push the included anchors into the holes.

Next, secure the earth wire from your home (bare copper or green/yellow jacketed) under the earthing screw.

Remove the camera.

While holding the backbox cover, turn Spotlight Cam to the left to disengage it, and set the camera aside for now.

Connect the power wires.

Now you'll want to connect the brown and blue wires from the wiring harness to their matching brown and blue wires from your home's power system.

Pull up the orange tabs on the wire clip to open.

Line up the ends of each pair of wires side-by-side, and fully insert them into the holes in the clip.

Then, just push the orange tabs down to close and secure the connection.

The white wire on the harness is not used, so cap it with a wire clip as well.

Mount the backbox cover.

Use the included Cover Screws to secure the cover to the backbox.

Connect your Spotlight Cam.

Insert your Spotlight Cam into the backbox cover.

Once it's fully seated, turn to the right to lock it in.

Insert the Security Screw.

Then tighten it, to lock your Spotlight Cam into the backbox cover.

Turn power on at the fusebox.

Once your Spotlight Cam is installed, it's time to turn power back on at the fusebox.

If the lights on your Spotlight Cam turn on, you're ready to go! If not, turn power back off and check your connections.
