• Try to aim the camera at an area that is evenly lit, as objects or people in
shadows near brightly lit objects are very hard to see.
• Avoid having bright light sources to the sides of, or behind the subject as
this will interfere with your images. Cars are notorious for reflected light
sources, as are buildings with a lot of windows, mirrors and so forth.
• The camera’s night vision will give well-exposed images if the area is
dark. However, if there’s a bright point source in the camera’s view (a
streetlight, car headlights or similar) then it might not engage night vision
mode.
• The camera is resistant to water, different weather conditions and
tampering. It would take an overwhelming event of this kind to damage
the housing of the camera (severe weather such as hurricanes or
someone intentionally damaging the lens would be enough).
• All wiring and connectors must be suitably insulated and protected from
moisture and sunlight because they are not weather resistant.
Mounting Instructions
1. There is a mounting plate on the camera dome. Separate it from the
camera dome base by rotating anti-clockwise. Remove the other parts of
the dome, consisting of the camera itself and the dome cover.
2. Install the mounting plate to the ceiling or wall in the position you’d like
using the supplied screws. If mounting to brickwork, concrete or other
masonry surface, use the supplied wall plugs.
3. Aim the camera at the area to be monitored. It can help to move a monitor
or television out to the camera’s location to ensure you get it aimed and
positioned properly.
4. Fix the dome base and cover to secure the camera by rotating the dome
base clockwise until it’s attached firmly to the mounting plate.
