Linking a Smart Home Camera to the Alarm Hub (ASH21)

Linking a camera to the alarm hub will allow the user to set a preset in the hub which will allow

the camera to automatically pan/tilt to a specified location once an alarm sensor has been

triggered. Linking the camera to the hub will also allow the camera to retain a 30-second clip of

an event after the alarm sensor has been triggered.

To retain events, please ensure the linked camera has a microSD card inserted into the microSD

card slot of the camera before linking it to the alarm hub.

Step 1: Open the Amcrest Smart Home app and tap on the sensor you would like to use to link

your camera.
