Installation Tips
• See images to the right for ideal setup.
It is
recommended to place your camera at least
7ft (2.1m) above the ground and angle it slightly
downward toward the monitoring area, excluding
any busy areas (e.g., sidewalks or roadways).
• Ensure the camera image is free of obstructions
(i.e., tree branches).
• Position the camera no more than 20ft (6.1m)
away from the area you wish to monitor.
• See the “Optimizing Motion Detection” section to
customize motion settings for each camera on
your system.
• Ensure you have configured the active area for
motion detection so that only areas of interest
are selected. See the “Optimizing Motion
Follow the tips below for more accurate motion detection and to optimize
battery life:
Detection” section for details.
• For best performance, position the camera so that objects of interest will move
from side-to-side across the camera image, rather than moving towards or away
from the camera.
• Install the camera within range of the recorder (noted in the camera’s
specifications).
• This camera is weather resistant for outdoor use (IP66 rated). Installation in a
sheltered location is recommended.
• Battery life will vary based on temperature, settings and number of events.
