➢
Rule
No.1:
Know
Camera’s
Field
of
View
The
field
of
view
of
Reolink
Argus
is
diagonal
130°
and
horizontal
110°,
please
make
sure
the
monitoring
area
is
well
within
its
field
of
view.
The
ideal
viewing
distance
is
2
to
10
meters
(7ft
—
33ft),
which
enables
you
to
recognize
a
human.
To
achieve
better
viewing
experience,
it's
advised
not
to
place
the
camera
too
far
away
or
too
high
from
designated
monitoring
areas
(7ft
—
33ft).
➢
Rule
No.2:
Understand
the
Detecting
Field
of
the
PIR
Motion
Sensor
Our
PIR
motion
sensor
is
more
sensitive
to
side-to-side
movement
than
movement
heading
straight
toward
the
camera
or
away
from
the
detecting
field
(horizontal
120˚)
of
the
PIR
motion
sensor.
For
example,
when
a
person
moves
straight
toward
the
camera
(shown
below),
the
PIR
motion
sensor
will
be
less
sensitive
to
the
movement.
