Before Installing a Camera
Things to keep in mind when deciding where to install the camera:
n
Consider camera viewing angles, lighting conditions, line-of-sight obstructions, and in-wall obstructions
where the camera is to be mounted.
n
Ensure that the camera body can move freely and will normally point away from the ceiling and lights.
The camera will not perform well if it is pointed toward a light source such as a light fixture or window.
n
If the remote will be used, ensure that nothing blocks the IR lens in the camera's base.

Caution
When building cables for Vaddio products, do not use pass-through RJ-45 connectors.
Incorrectly crimped pass-through connectors can damage the connectors on the product,
which will void your warranty.
Intact
– will make reliable contact
with cable connector
Damaged
– Bent contact fingers
will NOT make reliable contact
with cable connector
Use Cat-5e or better cable. We recommend using high-quality connectors and a high-quality crimping tool.
If connectors are crimped incorrectly, they can cause intermittent connections and degrade signal quality.
We recommend shielded cabling if the cables will be coiled, run tightly with other cables, or routed near
sources of electromagnetic interference such as power lines or fluorescent light fixtures.
Caution
Check your cables. Connecting a cable to the wrong port or using the wrong pin-out can result in equipment
damage and will void the warranty.
Pro Tip
Label all cables at both ends.
