Night Vision Features
2. NIGHT VISION FEATURES
This camera is equipped with special features that make it
more effective at deterring and identifying nighttime
intruders.
2.1 Night Vision
This camera is equipped with IR (Infrared) LEDs, which
allow it to see at night up to a range of 60 ft. (18m). It has a
built-in light sensor that activates night vision when it is
dark. The camera sees in black and white when night
vision is on.
2.2 Motion Detection / White Light LEDs
This camera is also equipped with White Light LEDs. At
night, the White Light LEDs are set to turn on
automatically when the camera detects motion within a
range of 9 ft.
How it Works: During nighttime, the camera’s night vision sees up to 60 ft. in black and white. When
an object comes within a 9 ft. range, the White Light LEDs turn on, and the Infrared LEDs turn off. White
light projects up to 30 ft., allowing the camera to view close by objects in color (depending on lighting
conditions). After 15 seconds, the White Light LEDs turn off, and the Infrared LEDs turn back on.

Night Vision Features
This helps deter / identify intruders by:
• Alerting them to the presence of the camera, after they
have already been spotted.
• Providing a better view of the intruder’s face. The white
lightsonthecameraturnoninstantlytosurpriseintruders,
drawing their eyes to the camera.
• Providing color images at night. When the white lights are
activated, the camera can view close by objects in color.
Color images help identify the intruder’s face and clothing.
NOTE: White Light LEDs remain on for 15 seconds after
the camera detects motion.
The camera detects motion using a built-in
light sensor. Avoid installing the camera in
areas where the lighting conditions are likely
to change frequently, as lighting changes may
trigger the sensor even if there is no motion.

Installation Tips
3. INSTALLATION TIPS
• Test the camera before installing to ensure that there are
no problems with the camera.
• To maximize the range of the motion sensor and White
Light LEDs, mount the camera around 7 ft. (2.2m) off the
ground.
• Avoid installing the camera in locations overlooking a
publicroadorsidewalk, as motion or lightingchangesfrom
these locations will trigger the camera’s White Light LEDs.
• Mount the camera where the lenses are away from direct
and intense sunlight.
• Plan your cable wiring so that it does not interfere with
power lines or telephone lines.
• Ensure that the camera wiring is not exposed or easily cut.
