How to Set Up eufy Video Doorbell Dual (Wired)

Start by turning off power to the existing doorbell circuit at the breaker for safety. Remove the old doorbell, check that your wiring is compatible, and confirm that your transformer meets the required voltage range for the unit. Mount the bracket using the included hardware, then connect the wires securely to the terminals.

Next, restore power and follow the app-based pairing process. Install the eufy Security app, create or sign in to your account, and add the doorbell by scanning the device QR code or following the in-app setup prompts. Connect the doorbell to your 2.4 GHz Wi‑Fi network, since many smart doorbells do not support 5 GHz during initial pairing. Then test live view, motion alerts, and chime settings.

For best results, adjust motion zones, notification sensitivity, and package detection settings after installation. If the device does not pair, reset it using the reset button and try again closer to the router. Avoid mounting where direct sunlight, reflective glass, or heavy rain runoff can interfere with the camera. Never work on live electrical wiring.

Troubleshooting eufy Video Doorbell Dual (Wired)

No power: Check breaker status, wiring tightness, and transformer compatibility. If the doorbell does not light up, confirm that the wiring delivers adequate voltage.
Wi‑Fi connection fails: Use 2.4 GHz Wi‑Fi, move the router closer during setup, and re-enter the password carefully.
Motion alerts missing: Increase motion sensitivity, verify activity zones, and make sure the camera lens is clean and unobstructed.
Poor night image: Reduce backlighting, clean the lens cover, and confirm that the doorbell has an unobstructed view of the porch.
Chime not ringing: Check chime compatibility, app sound settings, and wiring connections to the indoor chime.
Frequent false alerts: Narrow the detection area and exclude street traffic, trees, or moving reflections.

If problems continue, use the app’s device diagnostics, restart the router, and power-cycle the doorbell. Preventive care includes keeping firmware updated, cleaning the camera lens regularly, and checking mounting stability after severe weather. Warranty coverage and support options are typically available through the manufacturer’s support portal and the retailer where you purchased the unit; contact details vary by region, so use the official support channel listed in your app or packaging.
