How to Install the VigilantGuard Pro Wireless Security Camera

If you’ve just purchased the VigilantGuard Pro Wireless Security Camera from Bluey Security Co., you’ve chosen a powerful 2K dual lenses, solar power, and 360° coverage, this wireless security camera keeps your property safe 24/7.

Here’s how to install and set it up in easy steps.

Unbox & Check What’s Included

When your VigilantGuard Pro arrives, open the box and confirm you have everything:

The main camera unit (solar-powered, with dual lenses)
Solar panel (7.5 W) plus solar bracket and cable
128 GB Micro SD card pre-included for storage (some variants)
Mounting kit (bracket, screws, wall plugs)
User manual / quick-start guide
(For 4G variant) Nano SIM slot, supports remote sites without WiFi

Also ensure you have:

Access to a 2.4 GHz WiFi network (for the WiFi model)
Alternatively a data-only 4G SIM with coverage (for the 4G model)
A ladder or safe place to mount if you’re putting it on a wall or high point

Choose the Ideal Location

Getting the right location is crucial for optimal performance:

Sunlight & Solar Panel:

The solar panel must get good direct sunlight so the internal battery remains charged.
Avoid heavy shade, large tree branches or deep overhangs that block sunlight.

Signal & Coverage:

For the WiFi model: test your phone’s WiFi signal where you plan to install. If it’s weak, the camera might struggle.
For the 4G model: check your phone for strong 4G signal at the mounting spot.
Choose a vantage point where the camera can survey the area you most care about (gate, driveway, yard, side entrance).
Make sure the panel and camera are mounted securely and in view of the area you want to monitor.

Weather & Mounting Surface:

The camera is weather-proof (IP66) for outdoor use.
Choose a stable wall, post or structure where the camera bracket can be mounted firmly.

Mount the Camera & Solar Panel

Follow these steps to install:

Use the mounting bracket and hold it in the desired position. Mark the screw holes.
Drill holes and insert the wall plugs if mounting into brick or masonry.
Secure the bracket with screws provided.
Attach the camera unit to the bracket but leave the angle slightly adjustable.
Mount the solar panel nearby (within the cable length allowed) and orient it towards the sun.
Route the solar cable neatly to the camera’s input port and connect it securely.
Once mounted, adjust the camera’s tilt and pan (if applicable) so you get the desired view.

Power On & Connect to Network

With the hardware installed, it’s time to get the camera online:

For WiFi model:

Turn on the camera (check manual for the power switch location).
Download the V380 PRO app (ensure you use V380 PRO not standard V380)
In the app, “Add Device” → select WiFi Camera.
Connect your phone to your home 2.4 GHz WiFi network (camera only supports 2.4 GHz)
Scan the QR code shown in the app with the lens of the camera (or follow instructions if they differ).
Once connected, give the camera a name (e.g., “Front Gate Cam”) for easy identification.

For 4G model:

Fully charge the unit via USB-C (if required) before mounting.
Insert a compatible 4G nano SIM with active data plan.
Use the app: “Add Device” → select 4G Camera. You may need to configure the APN for your provider.
Follow scanning steps and verify connection.

Configure Settings & Test Operation

After it’s connected, take a few minutes to fine-tune its behaviour:

Enable motion detection alerts so you’ll get notifications on your phone when someone moves in the monitored area.
Set up night vision modes (colour & infrared) so images remain clear even in darkness.
Test the built-in deterrent system: the camera activates flashing red & blue lights and a siren when motion is detected.
Insert the SD card (if not already inserted) and format it via the app for local recording.
View live feed and pan/tilt/zoom (16× zoom support) to verify the field of view covers what you want.
Walk through the area at different times (day/night) and verify you get alerts, the feed is clear, and recording is functional.

Secure & Finalise the Installation

Once you are satisfied that everything works:

Tighten all screws and ensure mounts hold firm.
Use cable clips or trunking to secure any external wiring (solar cable).
Apply silicone or sealant around drilled holes if mounting outdoors to prevent water ingress.
Ensure the solar panel is free of obstructions and still receiving direct sunlight.
Check the WiFi signal or 4G signal remains stable after mounting.

Maintenance & Best Practices

To keep VigilantGuard Pro performing reliably:

Clean the solar panel every few months (remove dust, leaves, bird droppings) to maintain charging efficiency.
Check the camera lens periodically and clean any debris.
Review your SD card usage and archive or clear old footage to avoid running out of space.
Update firmware via the app when updates are available to keep features and security up to date.
After extreme weather, inspect the camera mounting and connections for any looseness or damage.
If you change your router or WiFi network, remember to update camera settings accordingly.
