Commissioning the Camera
Tips for Camera Location
1.0 To avoid internal overheating:
-
never expose the camera to direct sunlight without additional camera housing
-
keep sufficient distance to direct heat sources.
2.0 Never install the camera at humid, oily or dusty locations without using an
additional housing. (without additional housing the camera is not suitable for
outdoor use!)
3.0 The camera should be installed out of reach (min. height: 2.30 m)
4.0 Do not aim the camera towards indoor lighting, the windows, the sunlight or the
sky (to get good pictures, camera and light should be aimed towards the object)
5.0 Reduce the picture detail to the
essential parts of the picture and
place the camera as close as possible
to the object (a smaller picture detail
guarantees sharper details).
6.0 Do not aim the camera towards a
window but instead towards the room.
7.0 Outdoors the camera should be
placed as high as possible so that the
horizon does not appear in the
picture.
8.0 Avoid peak light as background (also
caused by reflections, e.g. window
panes).
