Installing an ADT doorbell camera is easy and rewarding. It provides peace of mind knowing you can view who is at your door without leaving your home’s comfort. The instructions with your products are user-friendly and designed for effortless installation.

Firstly, you must detach your old doorbell button – you will be left with two wires. The next step is to carefully screw the two wires to the back plate of your new ADT doorbell camera.

Then, you should press the on/off switch at the back of your doorbell camera so that a blue light appears in front. This signifies that your device is ready to use.

Finally, go to the ADT Pulse portal, click on the ‘System’ tab, and select ‘Manage Devices’. From there, you will need to click on the ‘Add’ button using the WPS option. Here, you must type in the 8-digit PIN with your device and wait for it to update its firmware.

Following these instructions will make sure you get the best performance out of your ADT doorbell camera, so stick to them for a successful installation.
