WHAT’S IN THE BOX

HOW THE SOLAR PANEL WORKS

The Solar Panel works with our eufyCam series security cameras. When placed in direct sunlight, the Solar Panel provides energy to your connected eufyCams. To get the maximum amount of sunlight exposure, install the Solar Panel on the roof or wall outside of your house

INSTALLING THE SOLAR PANEL

While positioning the Solar Panel, keep the following factors in mind. These factors may affect the solar panel efficiency:

1. Weather conditions will impact the levels of energy produced.
2. Dirt or debris on the panels can negatively impact the intake of sunlight.
3. The amount of sunlight that the solar panel receives.

To optimize your solar panel efficiency, identify an optimal position on your roof or wall for installation.

1. Select a location where the solar panel can get the most sunlight throughout the year.
2. Position your solar panel south-facing (in the Northern Hemisphere) or north- facing (in the Southern Hemisphere), and tilt the panel at a 30° angel.
3. Regularly wipe/clean your solar panel to keep it free of debris and dirt.
4. Keep your solar panel and eufyCam within 13 ft / 4m of each other.

POSITIONING THE SOLAR PANEL

Before installing the Solar Panel, take down your eufyCam from the wall.

1. Place the mounting bracket against a wall or roof and secure it with the included screws.

2. For walls or roofs that are made out of hard materials such as concrete, brick, or stucco, insert anchors first.

3. Anchors are not needed for wooden walls or roofs.

4. Screw the Solar Panel to the mounting bracket and make sure it is well secured.

5. Angle the Solar Panel on the mounting bracket to receive the largest amount of sunlight. A 30° tilt is recommended.

CONNECTING THE SOLAR PANEL TO EUFYCAM

Use the provided waterproof gasket as support when connecting the solar panel to your camera. The gasket protects your camera from exposed moisture and other elements that may damage the camera.

1. Select the correct water gasket and connect the solar panel to your camera.

   Make sure your camera is using the screw mounting bracket rather than a magnetic one.
   (1). Slide the waterproof gasket onto the USB connector of the Solar Panel cable.
   (2). Plug the USB connector into the USB port of your camera.
   (3). Cover the waterproof bracket and then screw the thread bolt into the mounting screw slot. For eufyCam 2C / 2C Pro / eufyCam E:
   (1). Slide the respective waterproof gasket onto the USB connector of the Solar Panel cable.
   (2). Plug the USB connector into the USB port of your camera.For eufyCam Solo:

(1). Open eufyCam Solo’s back panel. Align the waterproof gasket with the USB port and press it in.

(2). Plug the USB connector into the USB port of your camera.

For SoloCam Spotlight / Solar:

(1). Connect the provided mirco-USB to Type C cable to the USB connector of the Solar Panel cable.

(2). Slide the waterproof gasket onto the connector of the mirco-USB to Type C cable, then plug the connector into the USB port of the camera. For 4G Camera:

(1). Connect the provided mirco-USB to Type C cable to the USB connector of the Solar Panel cable.

(2). Open 4G Camera’s back panel. Align the waterproof gasket with the USB port and press it in.
Plug the USB connector into the USB port of your camera.

2. Screw the mounting bracket for eufyCam into the mounting slot of your camera and angle the mount to get the desired field of view.

3. Route the extension cable along the solar panel hub to avoid tangling cables.

• Fully plug the USB connector into the camera.
