•  To ensure that you are viewing camera video in full 4K resolution (4K monitor required), check the 

video output resolution of your recorder. For full instructions, see your recorder’s documentation at

.

•  Not intended for submersion in water. Installation in a sheltered location recommended.

•  This camera includes an Auto Mechanical IR Cut Filter. When the camera changes between Day/

Night viewing modes, an audible clicking noise may be heard from the camera. This clicking is 

normal, and indicates that the camera filter is working.

Disclaimers

ATTENTION: 

•  Test your camera prior to selecting a permanent mounting location by temporarily connecting the 

camera and cable to your NVR.

•  Review the section “STEP 1: Important Installation Guidelines” above before choosing a 

permanent mounting location.

Before Installing the Camera

•  Decide whether to run the cables through 

the wall / ceiling (drilling required) or along 

the wall / ceiling. 

•  If you run the cables along the wall / 

ceiling, you must run the cable through the 

cable notch

 on the base. This will keep the 

camera base flush to the surface when 

mounted.

Cable Notch

To install your camera:

1.  Use the included mounting template to mark holes for the screws. 

2.  Drill holes for the mounting screws.

 

NOTE:

 Insert the included drywall anchors if you are installing the camera in 

drywall.

3.  Connect cables as shown in the section “Connecting the Camera”.

4.  Feed the cable through the mounting surface or cable notch and mount the 

camera stand to the surface using the provided screws. 

5.  Use a Philips head screwdriver (not included) to loosen the adjustment screw 

shown below. Adjust the camera position as needed:

•  Tilt the camera 

on the stand up 

to 90°. 

•  Twist the camera 

around the stand 

360°.

Adjustment Screw

6.  Tighten the adjustment screw to secure the position.

7.  

Remove the vinyl film from the camera lens when your installation is complete.

Additional Installation Tips:

•  Point the camera where there is the least amount of obstructions (e.g., tree branches).

•  Install the camera where vandals cannot easily reach.

•  Secure cabling so that it is not exposed or easily cut.

•  This camera is rated for outdoor use. Installation in a sheltered location is recommended.

STEP 1:

 Important Installation Guidelines

1A.

 

Optimizing Person and Vehicle Detection Accuracy:

 

•  Angle the camera so that objects of interest appear in the bottom 

 of the camera image. 

•  Choose a location where objects of interest will be no further than 50ft (~15m) from the    

 camera.

1B.

 Optimizing Face Detection Accuracy:

 

High Accuracy Face Detection Vs. Low Accuracy Face Detection

Optimal accuracy for objects within 

50ft (~15m) and in the bottom 

 of 

the image.

Lower accuracy for objects further 

away than 50ft (~15m) and/or in the 

top 

 of the image.

•  Angle the camera between 30~60° down from the  

  level position.
•  Install the camera between 8-16ft (2.5-5m) off of  

  the ground.

STEP 2:

 Installing the Camera

Level position (i.e., ceiling)

Optimal 

angle 

range

NOTE: 

Accuracy of person and vehicle detection will 

be influenced by multiple factors, such as the object’s 

distance from the camera, the size of the object, and the 

height and angle of the camera. Night vision will also 

impact the accuracy of detection.

The optimal installation location including height/angle for your camera will depend on the 

type of detection settings that you want to enable. The optimal angle for person and vehicle 

detection is different from the optimal angle for face detection. Based on your detection 

preference choose between Step 1A or 1B.

2.76” 

70mm

•  The camera should be installed about 10 feet above the ground so as to ensure that the   

  full proportion of the face is detected on the screen. 

•  Angle the camera approximately 15° down from the level position. 

•  To distinguish facial features the distance from the camera to the face should be   

  approximately 15 feet.

Accuracy of Face Detection will be influenced by the distance and angle of the face from the 

camera. For optimal Face Detection the camera must be positioned head on to capture a 

person’s entire face looking straight ahead. Obscured and/or partially or fully covered faces  

(i.e. a person’s head tilted down to look at their phone) will not be accurately detected.  

During low light conditions the camera will impact color night vision by switching to black & 

white to ensure accuracy and improve detection range of Face Detection. If you cannot meet 

the above requirements for installation it may be best to use person detection instead.

IMPORTANT: 

•  You cannot enable both Face Detection and Person and Vehicle Detection at the same time.

•  Face Detection is compatible with certain Lorex NVR’s only. For a list of compatible NVR’s 

please visit 

lorex.com/compatibility

.

•  Face Detection is disabled by default. For more information on Face Detection setup and 

configuration, refer to the NVR’s manual at 

lorex.com
