this will be set up for the eufy dual cam security doorbell if you already have a eufy home base
station you can skip ahead to the portion where you're actually just setting up the doorbell
however if this is your first eufy product or you don't have the home base 2 already step one in
the actual setup process is first setting up your eufy home base which you will need the home base
the ethernet cable and the power supply for setting this up preemptive here where i have my
ethernet cable plugged into my wi-fi router there and the power cable is already plugged in but
they're not connected to the home base we bring in the eufy app and in the upper right hand corner on
your home screen you select the plus sign and then you select what you have and what you are going to
do so in our case we're going to do the home base 2 and we're going to add this to my pre-existing
network or we can add a new home so we're going to hit next right here now it is telling me to plug
in the actual peripherals to the eufy home base so we're going to do that right now all right
might be a little hard to see on camera but that actually is blinking red so we're going to select
next so we're going to connect to the same wi-fi network as the home base select next and then
we are supposed to wait right here one minute until the home base led turns from red to blue
so we've got a steady red there i have a feeling that that's actually going to be blue momentarily
so we'll give that a minute see what happens welcome to eufy security
follow the instructions in eufy security app to set up the system all right so we got blue
and you did hear it kind of talking it was a little a little crackly so i did this before
with another eufy product it wasn't quite that crackly we're going to hit next eufy
security app needs to request camera permissions because there is a qr code on the bottom of that
so we're going to say yes and now we're going to proceed to scan the qr code
on the bottom of the eufy home base home base receives a pairing request press the sync button
on the back to accept it all right so if we flip this around there's a red sync button we're gonna
select that loud beep and steady blue and now the eufy app wants us to name
home base was added successfully wants us to name our home base so we're gonna do that
confirm and it was successfully added as with any new product it's going to check for firmware
always recommended that you check for firmware ahead of time before adding any new products to it
so we'll let the firmware go so home base is set up and ready to go once your home base is set up
you come back to the eufy app and again in the upper right hand corner select the plus sign
and then select what you are trying to add in our case we are trying to add a doorbell
so here you go they kind of lump all their doorbells together so we select doorbell
it's going to want to read a qr code so it's going to ask us for permission and then on the back of
our eufy doorbell there's a qr code so we simply we bring that into view of the app which because
the back of this is dark it's a little tricky to do around the camera so it's saying press
the sync button until we hear a beep and there we got a beep going gonna flip it back around
and here i heard a beep so now your eufy app is going to generate a qr code that you'll scan with
the doorbell and we'll do that often to add device we'll do that off camera kind of lets you know be
around eight inches away the wi-fi network please wait all right so you will hear connecting to the
wi-fi network please wait when it does scan the qr code so we did everything right i guess maybe
it just was taking a bit to actually connect device was added successfully so add a device
successfully and you heard that from here we're going to select next and then it's going to walk
you through what they're calling setup but it's actually installation saying the doorbell which is
actually installation not set up so we're going to select done and it's letting you know okay which
do you want do you want the split view or do you want the picture in picture and then depending on
where you want the picture in picture i'm going to stick with the split view and select save
so that will complete the setup process for the eufy dual cam setup of the eufy cam duo
so you're going to have two different mounting options you're either going to have your wedge
or your flat panel sadly neither of them actually indicate which way is up especially this one where
that's the locking mechanism right there so that's gonna be on the top we should kind of
indicated that it was up in my case i'm gonna use the flat panel here they do give you the guide as
we talked about before so you can actually kind of stick that and pre-drill your holes where you
like as you can see i kind of have some holes from other testing that i was doing so i'm going
to utilize the top one and then have to re-screw a new bottom one but it's really simple just come in
you got two sets of screws you have short screws and long screws depending on what you need
once you have your two screws in place yeah just give it a tug give it a wiggle make sure that
it's not going anywhere you can then take the eufy dual here and slide it in and then press
to hear a click you'll know it's in place give it a nice tug make sure it's not going anywhere
you
