Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation is straightforward due to the included wall and ceiling mounting kit. The system utilizes a SmartHub (included) to manage wireless connectivity, which helps optimize battery life and network stability.
- Placement: Mount the camera at a height that provides the best angle, keeping in mind the 180-degree field of view to maximize coverage.
- Connectivity: Ensure the SmartHub is connected to your network via the provided Ethernet cable for a reliable connection.
- Smart Home Integration: Link your Arlo account within the Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant apps to enable voice control and live streaming to compatible smart displays.
- Maintenance: While the cameras are IP65 weather-proofed, perform periodic checks of the lens to ensure no dirt or spiderwebs are obscuring the view. Wipe with a damp cloth if necessary. Use the included charging cable for initial charging, and ensure the solar panel is placed in an area with direct sunlight exposure.
