If you position cameras indoors, avoid pointing the camera at a glass window
to see outside. This may result in a bright white ring in the night vision image
because the light from the night vision LEDs may reflect off the window glass.
Take the following placement suggestions under consideration:
•
Cabling Distance From DVR to Camera.
The video signal sent from the camera
to the DVR is reduced over distance. The maximum distance allowed is 330
feet (100 meters). A 60 foot cable is included. If you need a cable longer than
60 feet, then use an RG59 cable (with suitable connectors).
•
Do not submerge any camera.
•
Mounting.
Ensure the camera is mounted on a stable surface which is capable
of supporting 5 times the weight of the camera.
•
Avoid direct exposure to the weather. Cameras which are weatherproof may
be mounted outside, such as under an eave or other overhang; however, the
image will be affected by rain, etc., landing on the lens. Do not allow direct
sunlight to land on the lens.
1. With the DVR connected to the camera, hold it in the location where you
want it mounted. Check the display on the monitor to verify that the view
from that location is acceptable.
2. Mount the camera(s) to the desired surface using the parts in the supplied
mounting kit. If mounting on drywall, use the drywall anchors supplied in
the kit.
3. Adjust the camera stand to ensure that the camera has a satisfactory view
of the area you would like to monitor. The camera has several adjustment
points to provide maximum flexibility when setting the view angle. Use a
Philip's head screwdriver (not included), to make any adjustments.
