3.2 Camera
3.2.1 General
The cameras included with your monitor are weatherproof and have an IP66
rating. Water can be sprayed on them and they will still work; however, the
cameras cannot be submerged.
The cameras can be exposed directly to the rain, it is recommended that, if they
are used outdoors, they should be mounted under some type of cover like a patio
6
overhang or eave. As rainwater drops on the camera glass, it may create spots
that will reflect the light from the infrared LEDs used for night vision, thus causing
lower quality video.
Also, as dust, grime, and cobwebs accumulate on the camera glass, they can
reflect light from the infrared LED and might lower video quality. Periodically clean
the lens glass with a soft cloth is recommended.
3.2.2 Placement Considerations
Consider the following when placing cameras:
• The clearest line-of-sight between the camera and monitor is best.
• Walls, especially brick and concrete will shorten the transmission distance.
• Placement next to windows allows better transmission.
• Optimized motion detection range is 6-18 feet for the camera. The farther away
an object is, the less accurate the motion detection.
• Avoid having a direct light source in the view of the camera, including street
lights, ceiling or floor lamps, spotlights in the driveway, etc.
• Rainfall, pool water ripples/reflections, tree/shrub leaves blowing in the wind –
and the shadows they create –can generate motion detection false alarms.
3.2.3 Install Cameras
When positioning the camera, better to bring the monitor along with; it’s much
easier to get the camera into the right position with the display.
1. Position the camera where you want it, plug it into power, and check video on
the monitor. Move the camera if the view is not what you want.
2. Hold the base of the camera stand where you want to mount it and mark the
location of the screw holes.
3. Use the included screws and anchors to attach the base to the wall or ceiling.
4. Adjust the screws on the bracket to make sure your camera point to the right
position.
