FARHD 2-Wire Villa Kit: 7″ Indoor Monitor with Tuya WiFi & Outdoor Call Panel with Card Unlock – Basic Function Instruction and Connection Guide

A smart, secure, and remarkably simple video intercom solution for modern villas and homes.

When it comes to villa security, reliability and simplicity matter. The FARHD 2-Wire Villa Kit delivers both – combining a 7-inch indoor monitor with Tuya WiFi connectivity and an outdoor call panel with card unlock functionality. Whether you’re building a new home or upgrading an existing intercom system, this kit offers a smart, secure, and surprisingly simple solution.

Let’s walk through what makes this system tick – from its core functions to step-by-step connection guidance.


Why 2-Wire? The Simplicity Advantage

Traditional intercom systems often require complex multi-core cabling, making installation expensive and disruptive – especially in existing homes. The 2-wire system changes that entirely.

Using just two standard wires (non-polarity, so there’s no worry about connecting them backwards), the system transmits power, video, audio, and control signals simultaneously. This means:

  • Reuse existing wiring – often works with old doorbell or telephone wires already in your walls
  • No polarity concerns – connect either way, no risk of reverse polarity damage
  • Fast installation – any electrician (or confident DIYer) can set it up quickly
  • Lower cost – less labour, less material, less disruption
  • Transmission up to 100 metres – plenty of distance for most villa layouts

What’s Inside the Kit?

The 2-Wire Villa Kit includes everything you need for a complete video intercom system:

7-inch Indoor Monitor

  • High-definition IPS or TFT touchscreen
  • Full-duplex two-way audio communication
  • Tuya Smart APP integration for remote access
  • 2.4G WiFi connectivity
  • Micro SD card slot for photo and video recording (supports up to 128GB or more)
  • Wall-mountable design

Outdoor Call Panel

  • 1080P HD camera with wide viewing angle (110°–115°) and infrared night vision
  • IP65 weatherproof – built for outdoor installation

Basic Functions – What This System Can Do

Indoor Monitor Functions

Answer Calls and Talk – When a visitor presses the outdoor call button, the indoor monitor rings instantly and displays the live video feed. With full-duplex two-way audio, you can speak naturally with visitors – just like a phone call.

Unlock the Door – Multiple ways to unlock:

  • Touch the unlock icon on the indoor monitor screen
  • Use the Tuya app from anywhere in the world
  • Tap a registered IC card on the outdoor panel
  • Enter a preset password on the outdoor keypad

Monitor and Record – The system automatically captures photos and video clips when the doorbell is pressed or motion is detected. All recordings are stored locally on a Micro SD card – no cloud subscription required, no privacy concerns.

Room-to-Room Calling – If you have multiple indoor monitors installed, you can use them for internal communication between rooms.

Outdoor Call Panel Functions

One-Button Calling – Visitors press the call button, and the system rings both the indoor monitor and (if configured) the Tuya app on your smartphone.

Multiple Unlock Methods – The outdoor panel supports:

  • IC/ID cards – tap a registered card for instant entry
  • NFC – use your smartphone as a digital key
  • Password – enter a preset code
  • App remote unlock – let someone in from anywhere

Clear Video Day and Night – The 1080P HD camera with wide viewing angle and infrared night vision ensures you see every visitor clearly, even in complete darkness.

Weatherproof Design – Rated IP65, the outdoor station stands up to rain, snow, dust, and temperature extremes.


Connection Guide – Step by Step

The system uses a simple 2-wire (non-polarity) connection. Here’s how to set it up.

Step 1: Plan Your Installation

  • Choose a location for the outdoor call panel near your entrance (eye level, about 1.5 metres high)
  • Choose a location for the indoor monitor inside your home – somewhere convenient where you’ll hear the ringtone
  • Plan the cable route between them (up to 100 metres / 300 feet)

Step 2: Connect the Wires

  • Use the provided 2-core wires (or your own ≥0.5mm two-core cable)
  • Connect one end to the outdoor panel’s 2-wire terminals
  • Connect the other end to the indoor monitor’s 2-wire input terminals
  • No polarity – you can connect either wire to either terminal

Step 3: Power the System

  • Connect the power adapter to the indoor monitor
  • The indoor monitor supplies power to the outdoor panel through the same 2-wire connection – no separate power supply needed at the door

Step 4: Physical Mounting

  • Mount the outdoor panel securely near your entrance
  • Mount the indoor monitor on the wall using the included bracket

Step 5: Test the System

  • Press the call button on the outdoor panel
  • The indoor monitor should ring instantly and display the video feed
  • Test two-way audio and the unlock function

Tuya App Setup – Remote Access Made Easy

Connecting your system to the Tuya Smart or Smart Life app unlocks remote access from anywhere in the world.

Step 1: Download the “Tuya Smart” or “Smart Life” app from Google Play or the App Store. Create an account and log in.

Step 2: Ensure your indoor monitor is connected to your 2.4GHz WiFi network (5GHz is not supported).

Step 3: Open the app and tap “Add Device”. The app will automatically search for and pair with your indoor monitor.

Step 4: Once paired, you can:

  • Receive video calls from the door station on your smartphone – wherever you are
  • View the live camera feed anytime, day or night
  • Unlock the door remotely with a single tap
  • Receive motion detection alerts and review recorded footage

Step 5: To share access with family members, go to “Me” → “Home Management” → “Add Member”. You can share control with up to 20 accounts.
