It is recommended to install the PIR Camera in the following locations
Mount where the animals cannot come to the detection area by climbing on furniture or other objects.
Don’t aim the detector at stairways the animals can climb on.
In a position such that an intruder would normally move across the PIR’s field of view.
Between 2.3 and 2.5m above ground for best performance.
In a corner to give the widest view.
Where its field of view will not be obstructed e.g. by curtains, ornaments etc.
Limitations
Do not install the PIR Camera completely exposed to direct sunlight.
Avoid installing the PIR Camera in areas where devices may cause rapid change of temperature in the
detection area, i.e. air conditioner, heaters, etc.
Avoid large obstacles in the detection area.
Not pointing directly at sources of heat e.g. Fires or boilers, and not above
radiators.
Avoid moving objects in the detection area i.e. curtain, wall hanging etc.
Be sure to always remain the RSSI signal strength steady at “4”.
Mounting the PIR Camera
The PIR is designed to be mounted on either a flat surface or in a
corner situation with fixing screws and plugs provided.
For corner mounting, a triangular bracket is provided to
add Back Tamper Protection. The bracket also includes
two knockouts to mount on the wall.
For surface mounting, an optional rotating bracket is provided for users
to adjust the range of detection. With the rotating bracket, the VST-892 can
be rotated 80 degrees horizontally and 70 degrees vertically to provide
optimal coverage.
