Installing the Camera
4. Installing the Camera
Cameras are suitable for outdoor installation.
Installation in a sheltered location is
recommended. For example, install under shelter
protected from the elements, such as beneath roof
eaves. The diagram to the right shows an example of
an ideal location for outdoor placement.
4.1 Installation Warnings
• Aim the cameras to optimize the viewing area: select locations that provide a clear view of
the area you want to monitor, that is free from dust, and that is not facing a strong light source
or direct sunlight.
• Avoid installing the cameras where there are thick walls or obstructions between the cameras
and the receiver.
• Avoid installing in a location which requires the wireless signal to pass through cement,
concrete, and metal structures. This will reduce the range of transmission. For details, see
"Appendix B: Frequently Asked Questions" on page 10.
• Select locations for the cameras that have an ambient temperature between 14°F~122°F
(-10°C~50°C)
• Not intended for submersion in water. For outdoor use, installation in a sheltered location is
recommended.
