BEFORE YOU START
Test your WiFi signal
Your RCA Floodlight Camera needs a strong enough signal from
your WiFi router in order to send its video signal. Here’s how to
test your WiFi Signal.
First, go to where you want to put the oodlight 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 oodlight camera.
If your WiFi network signal is less than 50% where you want
to install the oodlight camera, a WiFi signal extender is
recommended to boost the signal at the installation point.
IMPORTANT: The RCA Floodlight 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!
IMPORTANT: You must have a junction box
and wiring already installed in order to use
this product.
The RCA Floodlight Camera is
designed to replace an existing
oodlight installation. If you
do not already have a working
oodlight or wired junction box
where you want to install the RCA
Floodlight Camera, consult an
electrician to install one.
