Use the sync button to wake the camera
The button on the bottom of your camera is the sync button. You can use the sync button for
dierent purposes, depending on whether your camera is shut down or in normal operating
mode.
When you unbox your camera, it is shut down to reduce battery usage before installation. We
recommend that you follow the instructions in the Arlo app to wake and install the camera.
When the camera is shut down, pressing the sync button does the following:
Press and hold the sync button for 1–2 seconds. The camera wakes and the LED ashes
blue for two minutes. Follow the instructions in the Arlo app to add your camera to your
Arlo account.
Quick press. No change. The camera remains shut down.
If the LED doesn’t ash, no matter how long you press the sync button, the camera battery is
likely at 0% charge. Recharge your camera and try pressing the sync button again.
