5. Installation instructions
The saltwaterproof is equipped with a special IR filter and are particularly well suited for surveillance during day
and night. The camera is therefore suitable for operation in conjunction with IR spotlights to 940 nm. In addition,
the saltwater camera is equipped with automatic switching for black/white operation when illumination falls below
2 Lux.
Perfect (colour) video pictures depend a great deal on the illumination. Please take this into account when installing
artificial light sources. Light sources with a colour temperature different from daylight may effect colour drifts for colour
cameras.
The cause of bad picture quality goes hand in hand with the cabling. Ensure professional installation and avoid
passive video distributors. Always select the shortest distance between the camera and the next video unit.
If required the sun protection roof can be removed.
