Please Note: The camera must not be placed where it looks directly into the sun or any other bright light
source, as this will not only result in a poor image, but will eventually damage the electronics of the camera.
Areas with a high degree of contrast in the light levels may require re-positioning of the camera in order to
obtain the best image.
For night-time use or when situated in a dimly-lit environment the camera requires the aid of suitable exterior
lighting to ensure a good picture is achieved.
