How the System Works
The video doorbell system includes 2 parts. One is the video doorbell at your door. The other is the Homebased in your house. The video doorbell detects motion at your porch and allows you to answer the door anytime and anywhere. The Homebased stores video clips on its built-in storage. When someone rings the doorbell, people in the house will be notified.
STEP 1 CONNECTING THE HOMEBASE
Connect the Homebased 2 to the Internet
- Power on the Homebased 2, then use the ethernet cable provided to connect the Homebased 2 to your home router.
- The LED indicator turns blue (this may take up to 1min) when Homebased 2 is ready for setup.
