•
Elevate the camera. Mount the camera at least 7 feet (2.1 meters) above the floor and aim it slightly
downward for the best sensor performance.
•
Make sure that side-to-side traffic crosses the field of view of the camera. The motion sensor on
the camera is much more sensitive to side-to-side movement across its field of view than to movement
directly toward or away from the camera. The best area for motion detection is 5 to 20 feet (1.5 to 6
meters) from the camera position.
In the previous figure, the horizontal movement (indicated by the green arrow) in the area 5 to 20 feet
(1.5 to 6 meters) from the camera provides the best detection. The vertical movement (indicated by the
dark orange arrow) does not provide good detection.
