The floodlight camera features the following components:

Setting Up the System

*Use at least a Class 10 microSD card with a maximum of 128 GB.

  1. Download and install the eufy Security app, then sign in or create an account. You can find the app by searching "Download on the App Store" or "Get it on Google Play".
  2. Power on the floodlight camera using the USB-C charging cable and a power adapter (5V/1A, not provided). To avoid scratching the camera, do not peel off the protective film for the time being. The floodlights will only light up when in wired power mode. The USB-powered connection is used for setting up the camera safely inside your home. Make sure you can stream video from your floodlight camera BEFORE INSTALLATION.
  3. Tap the '+' icon in the app and follow the in-app instructions to add the camera.
  4. Disconnect from the power adapter, then close the USB port cover. The USB port cover must be closed to prevent water from entering the floodlight camera.

Preparing for Installation (Important)

Check Local Laws for Installation

If you are outside of North America, installation and wiring must be performed by a licensed electrician. Always follow code standards when installing wired connections.

Shut Power Off at the Breaker

Risk of Electrical Shock

NOTE: Do not use a dimmer switch or timer for this product.

Installing Your Floodlight Camera

Separate the Mounting Bracket

Separate the mounting bracket from the camera and set it aside for later installation.

Select a Location

You can mount the floodlight camera vertically on a wall or hang it from a ceiling. With the power off at the breaker, remove the existing floodlight if you have one.

Wall Mounting and Overhang Mounting are supported. For overhang mounting, reinstall the mounting base first.

Recommended Height

We recommend mounting the camera 8 ft (2.44 m) above the ground to achieve up to 40 ft (12 m) of motion detection range.

Diagram illustrates the recommended height and detection range.

Install the Mounting Bracket

  1. Run the existing wires through the hole of the junction box.
  2. Hold the mounting bracket onto the junction box, align the screw holes, remove the foam from the holes, then secure the mounting bracket on the wall or ceiling with the Bracket Screws (Bag C).

Diagrams show the process for both Wall Mounting and Overhang Mounting, including wire routing.

Connect Wires

1. Check for a hanging strap on the camera.

Option A: Hang your camera on the bracket with the hanging strap while connecting the wires.

Option B: Hang your camera on the bracket with the provided hook while connecting the wires.

2. Check the type of connectors your camera has. Follow the instructions below to complete the connection.

Separately connect the junction box's ground wire (bare copper / green / green & yellow), live wire (black), and neutral wire (white) to the floodlight camera's ground wire (green & yellow), live wire (black), and neutral wire (white) using wire connectors. Secure the connections with a screwdriver or with your hands.

If the existing ground wire has been connected to the junction box, or if there is no ground wire, connect the floodlight camera's ground wire directly to the junction box or mounting plate.

Diagrams illustrate wire connections for Option A and Option B, showing the flow of Live (L), Ground (G), and Neutral (N) wires.

Warning: Never cross-connect. The wires must be connected with matching colors. If you have problems with the proper operation of the floodlight camera, consult a licensed technician.

Place the Camera on the Mounting Bracket

  1. Remove the hook (if present), snap the mounting base onto the mounting bracket, align the holes, and secure it with 2 Base Screws (Bag B).
  2. Remove the label and protective film from the floodlight. Clean the camera with a lens cleaning cloth.

Adjusting the Lighting Angle

Manually pull up and down or left and right to adjust the floodlight vertically or horizontally.

Restoring Power

  1. Switch on the main circuit breaker in the house. An illustration shows the circuit breaker switch in the ON position.
  2. Now you can access various features and change settings in the eufy Security app.

In case the floodlight camera is not powered on, switch off the circuit breaker before checking the wiring of the floodlight camera.

For troubleshooting, check the Help section in the eufy Security app.
