This article will explain how to set up your Interactive Home smart camera using our app.


There are three setup modes, QR Mode, AP Mode and SmartConfig

(Red light flashing fast)


Use the camera to scan the QR code on the mobile phone which contains the net-pairing information.

  4. Select "Add Device" (or "+" in the top right).

  5. Select "Smart Camera".

  8. Select "Continue" and hold QR code in front of camera lens 15-20CM away.
