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.

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.)

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 aected by building materials or objects that block WiFi
signals and by interference from other WiFi networks.
¾To 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.
