Install and set up Vistacam 702
- First, open up the Vera Mobile app then go to “Devices” and tap the “+” symbol in the top right corner.
- Choose “Cameras” then “Vistacam 702” from the list.
- When prompted by the wizard, plug in the VistaCam 702 into a power outlet, using the supplied power adapter and cable.
- Wait for the camera to boot up. Once the front LED will blink BLUE tap “Next”.
- You’ll have to connect your smartphone to the camera’s own Wi-Fi network first, by going to your device’s Wi-Fi settings (enable Wi-Fi if not enabled), then look for the camera’s Wi-Fi Network. Usually, it looks like “VistaCam702_XXXXXXXXX”, where XXXXXXXX is the actual Wi-Fi password of the camera you have to use.
- Once your smartphone is connected to the camera’s WiFi, return to the Vera Mobile app and tap the “Next” button. Then choose the home Wi-Fi Network to which you want to connect the camera (needs to be the same network as your controller).
- Listen for audio cues from the camera. When it audibly confirms it is connected to your home Wi-Fi, tap the “Next” button.
- Wait while the camera gets configured and connected to your system (might take up to 2 minutes). Once it’s done you will be prompted to choose a name for your camera and select a room. Tap “I’m done adding devices” to close the wizard.
Congratulations! You’ve successfully added a VistaCam 702 camera to your Vera or Ezlo system. You can visualize your cameras in the “Cameras” menu of your VeraMobile App.
