Installing Your Ring Floodlight Cam Wired Pro

What You Will Need

• Ring Floodlight Cam Wired Pro
• Ring app (iOS or Android) with an active account
• Existing outdoor electrical junction box with 120V wiring
• A 2.4 GHz or 5 GHz WiFi network
• Wire nuts (included)
• Phillips screwdriver
• Drill
• Wire stripper (if needed)
• Ladder (for elevated installations)
• Non-contact voltage tester (recommended)

Important Safety Warning

This installation involves working with 120V household electrical wiring. If you are not comfortable working with electricity, hire a licensed electrician. Always turn off power at the circuit breaker and verify the wires are not live using a voltage tester before touching any wiring.

Step 1: Turn Off Power

1. Locate the circuit breaker that controls the outdoor light fixture you are replacing.
2. Switch the breaker to the OFF position.
3. Use a non-contact voltage tester at the junction box to confirm the power is off before proceeding.

Step 2: Remove the Old Fixture

1. Remove the existing outdoor light fixture from the junction box.
2. Disconnect the wires by removing the wire nuts. You should see a black (hot) wire, a white (neutral) wire, and a green or bare copper (ground) wire.
3. If there is no existing junction box, you will need to have one installed by an electrician.

Step 3: Mount the Floodlight Cam

1. Attach the included mounting bracket to the junction box using the provided screws.
2. Connect the wires from the junction box to the Floodlight Cam wires: black to black (hot), white to white (neutral), and green to green or bare copper (ground). Secure each connection with the included wire nuts.
3. Carefully tuck the wires into the junction box.
4. Attach the Floodlight Cam to the mounting bracket and tighten the screws. The camera unit should face outward with the floodlight arms extending to either side.

Step 4: Restore Power and Set Up

1. Turn the circuit breaker back on. The Floodlight Cam's lights will turn on briefly and the camera's LED will begin flashing.
2. Open the Ring app and tap Set Up a Device.
3. Select Cameras, then choose Floodlight Cam Wired Pro.
4. Scan the QR code on the camera and follow the on-screen instructions to connect to your WiFi network.
5. Name the device and assign it to a location.

Step 5: Adjust the Camera and Lights

1. Adjust the two floodlight arms to illuminate the areas you want covered. Each arm can be pivoted and angled independently.
2. Adjust the camera angle by loosening the ball joint on the camera housing. Point the camera to capture the most important area, such as a driveway, backyard, or side entrance.
3. In the Ring app, configure 3D Motion Detection zones using the built-in radar sensor. The Pro model offers precise motion detection with Bird's Eye View mapping.
4. Set light schedules and adjust brightness levels in the app.

Tips for Best Performance

• Mount the Floodlight Cam at a height of nine feet or higher for optimal coverage and to prevent tampering.
• The Bird's Eye View feature uses radar to track motion paths across your property. This requires a Ring Protect subscription.
• The built-in 110 dB siren can be triggered manually from the app or set to activate automatically during alarm events.
• The dual floodlights output 2,000 lumens combined, providing excellent illumination for driveways and large outdoor areas.
