Wire Nuts (x3)
#8 Long Bracket Screw
#10, #8, #6 Short Bracket
Screws (x2 each)

Wi-Fi Requirements
The Aria requires a 2.4GHz (802.11bg/n) for Wi-Fi
connectivity. This is a standard home Wi-Fi router.
You will need your Wi-Fi name and password when
pairing your mobile device and the Aria.
Note: If you are using a 2.4GHz + 5 GHz dual band
router, create separate SSID names for each band on
your Wi-Fi router settings page. This will make it easier for
you to select the 2.4GHz band for the device setup.
Mobile Device Requirements
The Momentum app requires a smart phone or tablet
device that runs on Android 5.0+ (Lollipop) for Android
devices or iOS 9.0+ for Apple devices.

Installation Requirements
1. To install the Aria, you must already have an existing
floodlight you wish to replace or have a setup location
with an installed junction box and available electrical
wiring.
2. Voltage supplied to the Aria should be between 110-
240VAC.
3. Setup location is recommended to be at least 6 to 10
feet from the ground.
4. Installation should be performed by qualified
electricians who are informed about the standards and
technical requirements of the appliance and its proper
installation.
5. Do NOT connect the Aria to a dimmer switch or timer.
6. Ensure the mounting surface and junction box are
waterproofed and completely sealed.
7. The Aria cannot be mounted on a ceiling or upside
down (i.e. it must be mounted on a wall).

10
Aria Installation
Before you begin:
-Shut OFF the power at the fuse or circuit breaker box.
-DO NOT rely on a wall switch alone to turn off the
power.
-If you’re unsure which switch it is to turn off the
floodlight’s power, please consult with a licensed
electrician.
-WARNING: Failing to shut off the power could result in
a serious injury, electrical shock, and/or risk of fire.
-You will likely require a ladder to reach the setup
location. It’s recommended you have someone to assist
you during installation to minimize risk of injury.

Step 1: Download the Momentum App
Download and install the Momentum app on your mobile
device.
Search for Momentum on the Google Play Store for
Android devices, or on the Apple App Store for iOS
devices. You may also scan the QR code below from your
mobile device to route you directly to the app.
Make sure the app logo you download matches the one
shown below.
Create an Account
If you don’t already have a Momentum account, you will
need to create one. To create a new account, follow the
in-app instructions.

14
Step 2: Remove your existing floodlight
-NOTE: Your power to the floodlight should be off
already at this point from the breaker box.
-Use a screwdriver or another tool (depending on
your floodlight) to remove the floodlight from the
junction box.
-Disconnect the wires from the floodlight.
-If there is a mounting bracket attached to your
junction box, you may remove that as well.

15
Step 3: Install the new mounting bracket and gasket
-Use the provided screws in the box to install the
mounting bracket onto your junction box. Make sure
it is tight and secure.
-With the provided gasket, peel off the white tape and
stick that side around the wall opening. Make sure
the center hole lines up with the center bracket hole
and that there are no openings around the gasket.
Step 4: Connect the wires
-You should see three sets of wires: a ground wire
(usually green or copper), black wire, and white wire.
-The Aria’s mounting base will have its own set of the
same wires. Note that the open side of the mounting

16
base should be facing outwards away from the
house (see pg.12 for reference).
-Use the provided wire nut to twist the open ends of
the ground wires from your home’s junction box and
the Aria’s mounting base together.
-Then, do the same for the two black wires and the
two white wires.
-Push all the excess wiring into the junction box.

Step 5: Install the mounting base
-First, make sure that the mounting base is set
properly so that the top screw hole is positioned at
the very top.
-With the provided #8 long screw, push the screw
through the middle screw-hole of the mounting base.
It should also pass through the gasket and finally into
the middle of the mounting bracket. Use the provided
screwdriver to secure it tightly.
-Ensure that the gasket and base is tight and does
not move.

18
Step 6: Mount the Aria
-The floodlight can now be mounted onto the
mounting base. Make sure the screw-hole at the top
matches on both the mounting plate and the
floodlight, then use the provided screw and
screwdriver to screw them tightly in place.
Step 7: Turn on the power
-Turn on the power from the power breaker to provide
power back to the Aria. You should hear a sound
play from the Aria that it’s ready to pair.

19
Step 8: Pair the Aria
Note: Your Aria should already be installed and powered
on before pairing.
To begin using your Aria, you will first need to pair it to
your Momentum account and then connect it to your Wi-Fi
network.
-Once your Aria has been powered on the first time, it
should already be put into pairing mode. There will
also be a sound played to notify you that it’s in
pairing mode as well.
-If it’s not in pairing mode, you will need to open up
the camera and hold down the reset button within the
camera for 3 seconds. You should hear an audio
play that the camera has been put into pairing mode.
1. Connect to the Aria’s Wi-Fi access point.
-From the app, select the Aria device option, then
proceed until you’re instructed to connect to the
Aria’s Wi-Fi access point.

20
-From your mobile device’s Wi-Fi settings, find the
Wi-Fi network with the name “ARIA” and connect to
it.
-Once you’re connected, go back to the app.
2. Connect to your Wi-Fi network.
-Select the Wi-Fi network you want your Aria to be
connected to. Enter in the network credentials if
necessary.
3. Configure the Floodlight and Camera settings.
-Name your device, then customize your light
schedules and motion zones to your preference.
-Once you’ve finished customizing your options, your
setup is complete!
