Open the Heimgard app and follow these steps to connect your camera.
-
Select Indoor camera 2 from the list.
-
Connect the power cable (B) to the power input (K). Insert the power cable into the USB power adapter (C). Connect the USB power adapter to a wall socket.
The camera is now booting. Wait until the LED-indicator (H) flashes green before continuing. -
From the drop-down menu, select the name of your Wi-Fi network (SSID).
NOTE: Select 2.4 GHz (not 5 GHz) if you have both options. You can also enter the network name (SSID) manually.
Remember to distinguish between uppercase and lowercase letters. -
On the line below, enter your Wi-Fi password, then tap Next.
-
Before pressing Next, make sure the LED (H) on the camera is flashing green.
-
A QR code will now appear on the screen. Turn the phone screen toward the camera lens (I) to connect the camera to the Wi-Fi network.
Turn the brightness of the screen on your phone to maximum for optimal readability of the QR code in front of the camera.
Hold the phone in front of the camera lens (I) and slowly move it away until the QR code is accepted (LED indicator (H) goes from flashing calm green to fast flashes indicating that the camera is connecting to your Wi-Fi network). -
When the camera is connected to the network, the LED indicator (H) on the camera will light solid green, and you will automatically be taken to the Configure Devices screen. This might take up to several minutes.

You can now give the camera a name, such as “Camera living room” and connect it to a room. Create a new room if the desired room or area does not already exist in the overview.
If you have multiple cameras to set up, repeat step 2, 3, and 6 to 9 to add them individually. If you change the Wi-Fi network or the LED (H) indicates a fault, reset the camera (see page 12).
Configuration and use
Advanced settings:
The camera can be used for two purposes:
Recording and Generic.
Generic:
- The camera does not record when it detects motion.
- In the app you can stream and start recording manually.
Recording:
- On motion: The camera will record when motion is detected.
- On motion when away: The camera will record only when “Away mode” for the alarm is activated and motion is detected.
The camera starts recording when it detects motion (records up to five minutes). If motion is still detected after five minutes, the recording continues in a new clip.
Where to place your camera
Place the camera as high as possible, in a place where it has a good overview of the area it is to capture and near a power outlet.

3 times the weight of the camera, and that you use screws that are suitable
