The HS-CAM-O is added to the HomeSeer HS3 soware via the HomeSeer Mobile app, available on Android and iOS. If you are
not using the Homeseer HS3 soware, please review the “Installaon without a HomeSeer system” secon below. It is not rec-
ommended to ax the camera to any surface before it has been added to HomeSeer.
1. Use the provided power supply to power on the HS-CAM-O, then wait 30 seconds for the camera to nish boong up. The
green LED on the ethernet connecon cable will go from solid to a steady blink once it is fully booted up.

right corner.

4. The app will ask which model of camera is being added, select HS-CAM-O. Next, select whether the camera will use Wi-Fi or
an ethernet connecon. If you are using an ethernet connecon, advance to step 6. Otherwise, connue to step 5.
5. If HomeSeer Mobile is running on an Android device, grant the app locaons permissions when requested. Then, select a

the mobile device running HomeSeer Mobile to max, then place it in front of the camera so that the camera lens is in the
center of the QR code. Slowly move the mobile device unl it is ~10 inches (25cm) from the lens. You may need to lt the
screen from side to side as well.

appears, the camera has been added to your HomeSeer HS3 system! This can be seen in the Cameras secon of HomeSeer
Mobile and in the HS3 web interface from Tools > Setup, under the Cameras tab.
