WiLife Video Security System Applications
Overview of the WiLife Video Security System
WiLife has three primary components: Intelligent Cameras, Powerful Command Center Software, and WiLife
Online Services.
At the center of the Command Center are components to view live camera video; search for, and play back
recorded video; and tools to configure system options. These components, respectively, are Live Mode,
Playback Mode, and Setup.

One of our first design goals was to deliver a system that you could set up in 15-minutes without having to use
special tools, drill holes, run wires, or configure networking equipment. It is important to us that you have a
great experience right out of the box – one that exceeds the capabilities possible even with a professionally-
installed home video system.
You complete the setup process in three easy steps:
Step 1 – Install the WiLife Command Center (Software)
Step 2 – Connect the USB Receiver, Ethernet HomePlug Bridge, or Powerline Injector (WiLife Pro)
Step 3 – Mount Your Cameras
With these easy steps, you are up and going. Jump to the chapter on Getting Started for more details about the
WiLife setup process.
