Mounting Your eufy Motion Sensor

To help you mount the motion sensor on the wall.

 

Find a Location for Mounting 

The motion sensor can be installed on a wall.  In order to have optimal detection coverage, please consider the following factors before mounting the motion sensor:

1. Determine the area of detection and ensure there is an unobstructed field of

view.

2. Determine both the height and the tilt angle.

3. Avoid direct sources of heat or sunshine, curtains, plants, and pets.

 

Ideally, the motion sensor should be installed on a wall facing the door through which

people are likely to enter.  We recommend placing the motion sensor close to a

corner to have optimal detection coverage.  You can also install the motion sensor in your garage, dining room, or basement. 


 

Height and Tilt Angle

The motion sensor should be mounted 2m / 6⁴/₇ ft to 2.5m / 8⅕ ft above the ground

with a tilt angle of preferably 20º downwards.  If you have a large pet that weighs more

than 50 lbs, change the angle to a 10º downwards tilt.

 

With Pets


 

No Pets


To better detect the area where people may break in, rotate the motion sensor

horizontally up to 30º. 

 

Sensitivity

The sensitivity can be adjusted based on the room size.  The default setting is medium

sensitivity (detection range of 6 to 8 meters). 

 

Mount the Motion Sensor 

There are two methods of mounting the motion sensor at the selected location:

 

Use the 3M Adhesive Strip

1. Snap the adjustable wall mount onto the motion sensor base.

2. Stick the adhesive strip on the back of the sensor, remove the film, and stick

the motion sensor on the wall.

3. Rotate the motion sensor to adjust the detection coverage.


 

Use the Provided Screws

1. Place the mount against the wall and use a pencil to mark the desired

location for mounting. 

2. Drill holes at each marking.

3. Insert anchors into the holes and fix the mount onto the wall with the

provided screws.  It is not necessary to use anchors on wooden walls. 


4. Clip the motion sensor back onto the mount.

5. Rotate the motion sensor to adjust the detection coverage.
