How do I connect the camera to my garage door opener?

Locate the wall control terminals on your garage door opener. Insert the provided motor connection wire into the camera's wire connectors. Twist each wire strand to the motor connection wire, then connect the paired strands back to their original terminal. For dual-door setups (T8453), repeat for the second opener.

What does the ring light on the camera indicate?

Flashing blue means connecting to the Internet; solid blue indicates normal operation; flashing red means disconnected from the Internet.

How do I pair the garage door sensor with the camera?

Insert the battery into the sensor, close the battery cover. Open the eufy Security app, follow on-screen instructions to pair the sensor via SYNC button. Once paired, mount the sensor on your garage door.
