Set up and use the SmartThings Cam

Navigate to and open the SmartThings app. Tap the Devices tab, then tap Add (the plus sign), and then tap Add device.

Tap By device type, then tap Camera under Devices/sensors, and then tap SmartThings.

Select your camera, then tap Start, and then view the on-screen prompts.

Using your phone, scan the QR code as prompted. Or, tap Add device manually to enter the serial number instead. Tap Add device.

If prompted, select your desired location or create a new one. Next, select a room or create a new one.

First, choose where you want to mount the Smart Cam. A location with a clear view of the area is preferable. Keep in mind that the camera is fixed, and so you will not be able to change angles or rotate it.

Remove the mounting plate from the stand by sliding it forward. 

Hold the mounting plate at the desired location and mark two small dots where the mounting holes will go.

Drill two pilot holes in the wall at the marked location.

Next, align the mounting holes on the camera stand with the pilot holes.

Then, mount the plate on the wall surface using the provided screws.

Slide the camera stand onto the mounting plate until it clicks in place.

Insert the power cable into the hold of the stand, connect the cable to the camera, and then plug the power adapter into the outlet.

Check the SmartThings app on your phone to make sure the Cam provides your desired viewing angle. Remember, you can't rotate the camera.
