Wi-Fi Requirements

Niro requires a 2.4GHz or 5GHz router (802.11bg/n) for
Wi-Fi connectivity. This is a standard home Wi-Fi router.
You will need your Wi-Fi name and password when
pairing your mobile device and GDC.

Note: If you are using a 2.4GHz + 5 GHz dual band router, create
separate SSID names for each band on your Wi-Fi router settings
page. This will make it easier for you to select the 2.4GHz or 5GHz
band for the device setup.

Mobile Device Requirements

The Momentum app requires a smart phone or tablet
device that runs on Android or iOS. Please see the in-app
description for device compatibility for the most up-to-date
info.

Garage Door Opener Requirements

Niro is compatible with most garage door openers
manufactured after 1993. However, it is not compatible
with any openers utilizing Security+ 2.0 or MyQ®
technology. Openers with Security+ 2.0 will usually have a
yellow ‘learn’ button on it.

be put into pairing mode. There will also be a sound

reset button for 10 seconds. You should hear a
sound play that the camera is ready to connect.
