3. HOW THE SYSTEM WORKS
How the System Works
The video doorbell system includes 2 parts. One is the video doorbell at your
door. The other is the HomeBase in your house.
The video doorbell detects motion at your porch and allows you to answer the
door anytime and anywhere. The HomeBase stores video clips on its built-in
storage. When someone rings the doorbell, people in the house will be
notified.
4. STEP 1- CONNECTING THE HOMEBASE
Connect HomeBase 2 to the Internet
1. Power on the HomeBase 2, then use the ethernet cable provided to connect the HomeBase 2 to your home router.
2. The LED indicator turns blue (this may take up to 1min) when HomeBase 2 is ready for setup.
5. STEP 2 SETTING UP THE SYSTEM
Download the App and Set up the System
Download the eufy Security app from the App Store (iOS devices) or Google Play (Android devices).
Sign up for a eufy Security account, then follow the onscreen instructions to complete the setup.
6. STEP 3 – DETERMINING THE POWER OPTION
Option 1 – Battery Powered
1. If you don’t have existing doorbell wiring at the front door, use the
built-in battery. You are free to determine the doorbell position and the
mounting is easy and quick.
2. When the doorbell battery level is low, you need to detach and charge it.
3. If you choose this option, please jump to STEP 4 FINDING A MOUNTING SPOT.
Note : The battery life varies depending on usage. In most common cases, a doorbell may have up to 10 events per day and each recording lasts 20 seconds on average. Under this scenario, the doorbell battery life can last up to 6 months.
Option 2 – Doorbell Wire Powered
1. If you have existing and working doorbell wiring at the front door, the
doorbell will be powered by the wires constantly. So you don’t need to detach
and charge it after installation.
2. Since the doorbell is connected to the wires, the mounting position is
limited.
3. If you choose this option, please jump to APPENDIX 3 POWERING THE DOORBELL
WITH EXISTING DOORBELL WIRES.
7. STEP 4 – FINDING A MOUNTING SPOT
Find a Mounting Spot
Take the video doorbell to your front door and check the live view on the app
at the same time. Find a location where you can see the desired field of view.
Consider the following factors:
1. Check if you can reuse the existing holes and anchors on the wall or door
frame.
2. If you want to place the doorbell close to a side wall, make sure the wall
doesn’t show up in the field of view. Otherwise IR light will be reflected and
night vision will become blurry.
3. If you are drilling the mounting holes for the first time, the recommended
mounting height is 48″ / 1.2 m from the ground.
4. To adjust the angel, use the 15° mounting wedge as a supplementary
mounting bracket.
Place the screw hole positioning card against the wall to mark the position.
8. STEP 5 – MOUNTING THE BRACKET
Mount the Doorbell on a Wooden Surface

3.1 Verify whether the doorbell wires are working
1. Ring the existing doorbell to check if it is working. If the doorbell
doesn’t ring, your doorbell wires may be defective. Power the doorbell on its
own battery or consult an electrician to fix the wires.

make sure the electricity in your house is properly shut off.
Always be careful when handling wires. If you’re not comfortable installing it yourself, have a qualified electrician do it.
3.2 Detach the Existing Doorbell Button
If you already have existing doorbell wiring:
1. Remove the existing doorbell button with a Phillips-head screwdriver (not
provided).
2. Pull the two wires out carefully when removing the existing doorbell.
Straighten the wire ends if necessary.
