What You'll Need

Step-by-Step Setup

Turn off power: Switch off the circuit breaker for the outdoor junction box. Verify with a voltage tester.
Remove existing fixture: Unscrew and disconnect any existing outdoor light or camera.
Connect wiring: Match the floodlight camera wires to your home wiring: black to black (hot), white to white (neutral), green to ground.
Mount the fixture: Secure the floodlight camera to the junction box using the included hardware.
Restore power: Turn the circuit breaker back on. The camera and lights will initialize.
Open the Hue app: Navigate to Settings → "Secure cameras."
Add the camera: Tap "Add camera" and select "Floodlight Camera." Follow the discovery process.
Configure the floodlight: Add the floodlight component to your Hue lights for full control.
Adjust positioning: Aim the camera and light panels for optimal coverage.
Set up automations: Create routines linking motion detection to the floodlight and indoor Hue lights.

No power to fixture: Verify circuit breaker is on. Check wire connections. Test voltage at junction box.
Camera discovered but lights not: Add the floodlight separately in the Lights section. Ensure firmware is updated.
Floodlight color wrong: Adjust color temperature in the Hue app. Check that the correct light is selected in routines.
Motion not triggering correctly: Adjust motion sensitivity. Refine detection zones to target desired areas.
Wi-Fi range issues: The floodlight may be far from your Bridge. Ensure strong Wi-Fi coverage outdoors.
