HGeneral Installation Notes and Tips
1. Test the camera signal before permanently installing the cameras.
2. Using battery power is only recommended for testing purposes as the cameras do require constant power to operate.
3. IR or night vision will reflect off of glass or windows and overexpose the picture. Try placing cameras in direct line of
sight of your subject.
4. Never aim the camera directly at the sun as this can permanently damage the lens.
5. Never submerge the camera in water. Some shelter is recommended such as an awning or eave.

receiver to the correct channel

the camera and receiver
away from wireless devices

A clear line of sight with little wireless
interference will always give you the
strongest picture
Walls and floors can also limit range and image results. Place the receiver in a location that
is relatively close to the camera’s position

around the middle of
the camera
2. Twist the front half of the
camera counter-clockwise

3. Locate the small white
dip switches in the
upper left region of
the camera
4. Using your fingernail or pen,
