Enrolling a Nexia® Camera in American Standard® Home
To enroll your new camera, you will need:

If the Camera Does Not Connect to American Standard Home

-
Repeat the enrollment process.
- The camera should not be connected to AC power and Ethernet until after you have entered the MAC address and pressed Continue

If the camera does not connect, perform a Factory Reset on the camera and power cycle the router.
- Disconnect the power cable for your router for 20-30 seconds and reconnect it.
- Hold down the reset button (located on the back of the camera) until the power light on the back of the camera flashes.
- Allow the router to reboot fully, which may take several minutes.
- If the camera still does not connect, try a different Ethernet cable that you know works.
- If it still will not connect, plug the Ethernet cable into a different port on your router.
-
If the camera still will not connect to American Standard Home, please verify/change the following settings:
- Ensure that DHCP is enabled.

FOR WIFI
- Verify the Encryption type. WCO200NX/WCP200NX cameras will not connect to WEP.
- Make sure your router is using 2.4 GHz.
-
Make sure the router is broadcasting "b/g" and not just "n".
