Welcome!
This WiFi Camera Caregiver System
makes it easy to care for your loved
one from virtually anywhere! This
guide takes you through the steps to
get started!
Step 1: Unpack
Alert remote
WiFi camera
The accessories:
Before you start...
Make sure you read the Important Information sheet
included in this package.

Step 2: Test your WiFi signal
Your camera needs a strong enough signal from
your WiFi router in order to send its video signal.
Here’s how to test it.
First, go to where you want to put the camera.
Make sure your smartphone or other portable
wireless device is connected to the WiFi network
you want to test.
Look at the WiFi icon on your
device screen to see the strength
of the connection. For example,
on iOS devices look in the upper
left-hand corner of the screen for
the WiFi icon (shown here).
For best results, look for a
location with at least 50% strength to use the
camera.
IMPORTANT: This camera works with 2.4GHz WiFi
signals. If you have a dual-band router with separate
2.4GHz and 5GHz networks, make sure your phone is
connected to the 2.4GHz one!
Step 3: Plug in the camera
Plug one end of the
included power cable
into the DC In jack on
the back of the camera.
Plug the other end into
the included power
adapter. Then plug the
adapter into an outlet or
surge protector.
The camera turns on
automatically when you
plug it in (the indicator
light on its back panel
turns solid red).
Getting Started
Step 4: Install the App on
your phone
In the Google Play or Apple
App Stores, search for “RCA
SMARTVIEW” and look for
the icon shown here. Then
download and install the App.
Step 5: Launch the App
Once the RCA SmartView App has installed on
your smartphone or tablet, press the icon to
launch the App.
Step 6: Create an RCA
SmartView user name and
password
The first time you launch
the RCA SmartView App,
you’ll need to create a user
name and password so that
you can access your camera
securely.
Press Register to start, then
follow the steps to set up
your account.
IMPORTANT: Make sure you
give a valid email address that you
have easy access to. The App will
use this address if you ever need
to recover or reset your password.
IMPORTANT: Your user name
cannot contain special characters
(like “@”)—only letters and
numbers.
Getting Started
Step 7: Pair the RCA SmartView camera with the App
Make sure the RCA SmartView App is open
on your phone or tablet. Also make sure that
your phone or table is connected to your WiFi
network.
