Choose a location
Eve Outdoor Cam is best installed to replace an existing outdoor light. An
installation height of 2.5 m / 8 ft and a tilt angle of 30° is ideal, however,
you can easily adapt Eve Outdoor Cam to your needs thanks to the three-axis
camera angle adjustment.
Please respect local laws regarding the filming of public spaces.**
Check Wi-Fi coverage
Outdoor install locations often offer challenging conditions for Wi-Fi
reception. Before you proceed with the installation of Eve Outdoor Cam, ensure
that Wi-Fi coverage is sufficient at the desired location.
Eve Outdoor Cam connects exclusively to 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi networks for greater
range and reliability. To check coverage using your iPhone, make sure it is
connected to a 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi network. You may need to temporarily disable the
5 GHz network of your router.
Hold your iPhone close to the wall at the location you want to install Eve
Outdoor Cam. Wait for at least 10 seconds and check the Wi-Fi signal on your
iPhone. You should have at least two bars of reception.
If your Wi-Fi signal does not reach the desired location, you may try to move
your Wi-Fi access point closer, use a Wi-Fi repeater or an additional mesh
node, or choose a different location for Eve Outdoor Cam.
Disconnect power
CAUTION – Risk of electric shock!
In your fuse box, switch off the fuse connected to your existing outdoor
light. Switch the associated light switch on and off to make sure that there
is no current flowing.
