PRODUCT OVERVIEW
What You Need:
- Phillips-Head Screwdriver

HOW THE SYSTEM WORKS
The Video Doorbell system includes 2 parts. One is the video doorbell at your porch. The other is the electronic chime plugged on indoor power socket. The video doorbell is powered by existing doorbell wires. In order to get sufficient power from the doorbell circuit, user needs to bypass the existing doorbell chime on the circuit.
APP INSTALLATION
-
Download and install the eufy Security app, then sign up for an account.
-
Add video doorbell and scan the QR code for later installation process. The QR code can be found on the back of the video doorbell.
VIDEO DOORBELL INSTALLATION
Note: Make sure you have installed the eufy Security App and scan the QR code before handling the doorbell installation.
Step 1
Ring the existing doorbell, make sure it’s working and locate the place of
your existing chimes in the house.
Step 2
Shut off the doorbell power supply. If you’re not sure, shut off the main
power supply in your house. Turn the lights in your home on / off to make sure
the electricity in your house is properly shut off.
Note: Always be careful when handling electricity wiring. If you’re not comfortable to do it yourself, do consult a qualified electrician.
Step 3
Find the doorbell chime in your house, then remove the cover and find the
screw terminals with TRANS and FRONT markings. Use the provided jumper for
existing chime to connect the two terminals. This is to bypass the doorbell
chime and will not affect the normal operation of the circuit.
Note:
- The video doorbell requires user to bypass the existing chime first to get sufficient power. Without this step, the video doorbell will still be able to power on but will operate unstably.
- In most cases, the existing doorbell circuit looks like below chart. Find the existing doorbell chime in your house, remove the cover and take a photo of the wire connection in case you need to reconnect it.
- Use the provided jumper to connect FRONT and TRANS terminals to bypass the chime on the circuit. Do not remove the original wire connecting to the chime. If your doorbell chime has different markings or you have multiple chimes, refer to the help session in the App for the custom wiring instructions or consult a qualified electrician.
- When the jumper is in place, the existing chime will not sound anymore.
What are required: Jumper for existing chime / Phillips-Head Screwdriver
Step 4
Remove the existing doorbell button at the front door. Pull the two wires out
carefully when removing the old doorbell. Straighten the wire ends if
necessary.
What’s required: Phillips-Head Screwdriver
Step 5
Determine the mounting position of the doorbell. Consider the below factors:
- Check if you can reuse the existing holes and anchors on the wall or door frame.
- If you are drilling the mounting holes for the first time the recommended mounting height is 48″ from the ground.
If you are mounting the doorbell on a wooden wall or board, do NOT drill holes. Skip to Step7 and use screws directly to mount the Mounting Bracket. If your wall is stucco, brick or concrete, you need to drill holes. Use the Screw Hole Positioning-Card to mark the position and drill holes with 1/4″ (6.35mm) drill bit.
What are required: Power Drill with 1/4″ (6.35mm) Drill Bit / Screw Hole Positioning-Card
Optional: Use the 15° mounting wedge as a supplementary mounting bracket if you wish to see more on a specific side.
Step 6
Use the anchors provided when installing in materials such as stucco, brick,
or concrete. There is no need to use anchor If you were installing on wooden
doorframe.
What’s required: Anchors
Step 7
Lead the two doorbell wires through the central square hole on the bracket
before start mounting. Insert the two screws provided through the screw holes
or through the 15° mounting wedge(Install the mounting bracket to the 15°
mounting wedge in prior), and fasten the screws tightly.
What are required: Mounting Bracket / Screw Packs / 15° Mounting Wedge(Optional) / Phillips-Head Screwdriver
Step 8
Connect the wires to the two terminals at the back of the doorbell, then
tighten the terminal screws. Wire can connect to any terminal as the electric
current is alternating current.
Note: To prevent short-circuit, make sure the wires are not touching each
other after connecting them to the terminals. If the wires are too short, use
the extension wires and wire nuts provided to make them longer. Use electrical
wiring tape to secure the connection if the wall doesn’t have space for wire
nuts.
What are required: Extension Wires and Wire Nuts (Optional) / Video doorbell / Philips Head Screwdriver
Step 9
There are 2 thermal conductive pads on the mounting bracket. They’re used to
conduct heat from video doorbell to the metal bracket. Remove the films on the
thermal conductive pads before you mount the doorbell.
Align the doorbell on the bottom, and then move it into place on top. Press
the doorbell down until it clicks.
Use the doorbell detaching pin provided if you wish to detach the doorbell from the mounting bracket. The detaching pin has magnet pad on the black-color side. Stick it on iron surface where you can find it easily. Note: The oval holes are speaker holes. Only press the round hole to detach the doorbell.
What’s required: Doorbell detaching pin
Step 10
Switch the doorbell or master circuit breaker to ON.
Step 11
Wait until the doorbell ring flashes blue. Then follow the on-screen
instructions in eufy
Security App to connect the video doorbell to your home Wi-Fi.
Step 12
Follow the on-screen instructions in eufy Security App. Install the doorbell
power connector to the doorbell chime and then pair it to your video doorbell.
Note: One video doorbell can link up to 4 electronic chimes. Use the
volume and music buttons on the side of the electronic chime to adjust the
volume and ringtone.
What are required: Doorbell chime / Doorbell chime power connector
