2. How do I connect a camera via a QR code?


Before connecting the camera:

  • Make sure the network you are using has internet access;

  • Check the frequency of your Wi-Fi network – most cameras can only work at 2.4 GHz;

  • Make sure that the camera connects with a power supply of the required wattage. Information about the necessary characteristics of the cameras’ power supply can generally be found in its instruction manual;

  • Write down the password for the Wi-Fi network.

Please mind that connecting a Wi-Fi camera with Ivideon to public/enterprise Wi-Fi networks which require authorization via a mobile phone number is not possible.

  • Enter the name and password of the Wi-Fi network you will be using and click Continue:

(make sure your Wi-Fi network is running at 2.4 GHz frequency; most of the cameras listed, except for Oco 2, do not support Wi-Fi networks that operate at a frequency of 5 GHz)

  • Show the QR code into the camera lens. If necessary, you can send a QR code to any e-mail address and then show it to the camera from another device. When the camera recognizes the QR code, there will be a beeping sound, and the LED will change to flashing green.

2.2. Connecting a Wi-Fi camera via the Ivideon mobile app


  • Ensure that your device is connected to the Wi-Fi network which you are planning to use for the camera’s connection;

  • In the Ivideon mobile app, log into the account you want to link the camera to;

  • Pick the Menu tab in the lower right corner of the screen and select the Connect device (or Add camera) option:



  • Choose "Select connection method" option, "Via Wi-Fi" variant.



  • Connect the power to your Wi-Fi camera and wait for it to load (about 20-30 seconds in general) – the camera will change the indication to flashing red (amber if it is Oco 2, orange if it is a Philips M120E camera);

  • Turn on GPS/geolocation option on your smarphone. Pick the Wi-Fi network you will be connecting the device to and enter this network’s password into the app.


  • On the next step, you will see a QR code on your smartphone screen:


  • Place the smartphone with the QR code in front of the camera lens and show the QR code to the camera from a distance of about 6-12 inches (15-30 cm);

  • When the camera reads the QR code, a beeping sound usually occurs, the camera will change the indication to flashing green/blue and a notification will appear in the mobile application;

  • Wait until the camera connection is completed (the camera will change the light indication to a solid green/blue LED).
