Set Up Your System
Place or Mount Your Cameras
You can place your camera on a shelf or other flat surface, or you can mount it to
the wall.
Note: Use the Arlo app in Position mode to help aim the camera. See Position Mode on
page 15.
¾To mount your camera to the wall:
1. Fasten the mounting screw into the wall, and hang the magnetic mount from
the screw.
2. If you’re mounting the camera to drywall, be sure to use the plastic drywall
anchors that are provided.
Note: You can also use double-sided tape instead of screws.

Set Up Your System
Position Your Cameras
Arlo’s Position mode allows you to see what your camera sees. Using Position mode,
you can make sure that your Arlo camera is positioned to monitor the precise area
that you want. For more information, see Position Mode on page 15.
It’s important to keep distance in mind when placing your Arlo cameras:
• Maximum. You can place your Arlo camera a maximum of 300 feet (90 meters)
from the base station. In indoor installations, the range might be less if metal
objects or thick walls and ceilings are between a camera and the base station.
Note: Check the Camera LED on the base station. If it’s blinking amber, the base
station detects a low data rate, a sign that a camera is too far from the base station.
• Minimum. Place your Arlo cameras at least 10 feet from the base station, and
allow at least 6 ½ feet (2 meters) between cameras. Follow these guidelines to
prevent WiFi signals between the devices from interfering with each other.
When positioning your Arlo camera, keep these tips in mind:
• Keep active locations in the camera’s field of view. Your Arlo camera
provides a 110-degree viewing angle. Position your camera so that the space
that you want to monitor is within the camera’s field of view.

Set Up Your System
• Aim with the cloud. Use Arlo’s Position mode to send video to the cloud as
quickly as possible. This allows you to aim the camera while watching the video
feed on your Arlo smartphone app to make near real-time adjustments to the
camera’s position. Go to your camera’s Settings option to turn on Position mode.
After the camera is in place, you can turn o Position mode, or it automatically
turns o after five minutes. For more information, see Position Mode on page
15.
• Elevate your camera. Mount your Arlo motion-detection camera at least 7
feet (2 meters) above the floor and aim it slightly downward for the best sensor
performance.
• Ensure that side-to-side trac crosses Arlo’s field of view. Arlo’s motion
sensor is much more sensitive to side-to-side movement across its field of view
than to movement directly toward or away from the camera. The best area for
motion detection is 5 feet to 20 feet (1.5 to 6 meters) from the camera position.
For best results, position the camera so that the path of expected motion crosses
Arlo’s field of view and does not head directly into or away from the camera. For
example, if you want to detect motion near a couch, place the camera to the side
of the couch, rather than above it or opposite it.
You can use the Motion Detection Test feature to verify if motion can be detected
in a camera’s current placement. The camera’s LED flashes amber when motion is
detected. Go to your camera’s Settings option to turn on the Motion Detection Test
feature.

Access the Base Station Camera Feeds
1. Connect your computer or mobile device to the same LAN as the base
station.
If you are unable to connect to the same LAN using WiFi, use an Ethernet cable
to connect a computer to the same router or switch as the base station.
2. Do one of the following:
• Windows-based computer. Open a folder and then click Network or
Network Places. Look for a Basestation-xxx icon. It might appear in the
other devices category.
• Mac, Linux, or mobile device. Open a web browser and enter
http://basestation-xxx (replace xxx with the last 3 digits of the base
station serial number). The serial number is on the base station label.
• IP address. Use your router’s admin web page or a network scan tool to
look up the IP address for the base station and then type the IP address into
your browser address bar.
3. Enter admin for the user name and enter the password.
The default password is password.
The base station web page displays the cameras that are linked to the base
station.
4. To test the camera feed, tap or click the Snapshot button to refresh the
camera image for each camera.
Charge the Camera Battery
The rechargeable battery is fully charged when it leaves the factory.
1. Place the camera indoors.
If you are using the camera outdoors, bring it inside while charging the battery.

Add Your Camera to an ONVIF-Compliant VMS
Note: We recommend that the camera and the VMS hardware are on the same LAN
and subnet.
1. Log in to the base station.
The base station web page displays.
2. Tap or click the gear icon near the camera.
3. Note the IP address next to the text Network.
4. Open your VMS soware.
5. Follow the instructions provided by your VMS vendor to discover an
ONVIF camera.
If the automatic discovery process does not work, you might need this
information to manually add the camera to your VMS:
• IP address. (You can use your router’s admin web page or a network scan
tool to look up the IP address for the base station.)
• Port. 8080
• The camera’s default password for its admin user name. (This is
dierent from the base station’s admin password.)
6. Select ONVIF or Generic ONVIF as the device type.
7. For best performance, select h.264 for video.
After you add the camera to the VMS, you can select one of three default
streaming profiles or create your own custom profile.
8. Adjust the bitrate as needed for your network environment.
Reduce the bitrate in environments with high 2.4ghz interference or if the
camera needs to be placed far away from the nearest base station.
9. Select no more than 24 frames per second as the frame rate.
