6. Notes on Camera Installation
Find the Best Spot for the Camera
Please install the camera 2-3 ( 7-10 ft) above the ground. The detection range of the motion sensor would be
maximized at such a height.
It is not suggested to install the camera vertically towards the moving objects, otherwise, it may not detect the
motion events or cause delay.
It is suggested to make the angle between PIR Sensor and detected objects more than10 degrees.
The Camera motion sensor is much more sensitive to side-to-side movement across its field of view than to
movement directly toward or away from the camera.
