Last updated: 03/16/17Troubleshooting TipsFloodlight Cam is not lighting up when I restore power.See if there is a light switch controlling power to your floodlight fixture. If so, make sure it is switched on and stays switched on. If your fixture is connected to a timer, you’ll need to turn o the timer functionality.Floodlight Cam lights up, but I can’t complete the in-app setup.First, triple check your Wi-Fi password, since this is the most common reason Floodlight Cam can’t complete setup.
