Connect a camera to SpotStation

2 min read · Updated Oct 28, 2026

1. Before you start

You need SpotStation 1.1 on a laptop and a USB cable that came with the camera, or a camera with Wi-Fi.

2. Plug in and turn on

Connect the camera and switch it on. SpotStation shows it within a few seconds.

SpotStation shows each camera with its battery and last photo.

3. Pick the event

Choose the live event. New photos go to the Photos tab, in the folder you pick.

4. Take a test shot

You should see it in the event within 10 seconds.

Tip: keep the laptop on power. SpotStation pauses uploads when the battery drops below 10%.
