SECTION 3: INSTALLING YOUR SYSTEM
SECTION 3
Installing Your System
For each camera you received with your system, installation instructions are included. Follow the instructions to install all your
cameras, then route the camera video and power extension cables to the location where the DVR will be setup. Some guidelines for
camera placement, and considerations for weatherproof cameras and cable routing are provided below.
3.1 Camera installation
Plan your camera installation carefully. Identify the locations where cameras will provide the best coverage, considering:
•
Field of view
– Cameras must be positioned so they can effectively view the entire area that must be monitored, and in a
location that makes tampering with it difficult.
•
Lighting
– Direct sunlight shining on the camera lens or bright reflections from shiny objects in the field of view can diminish
video quality and camera performance. Mount the camera in shaded areas, if possible, or where these influences can be
minimized.
•
Ease of installation – The camera must be installable at the location, considering mounting hardware requirements,
temperature, dust, moisture, etc.
About weatherproof cameras
Weatherproof cameras can be mounted in any open area, such as on a telephone pole or on the side of a building. However, for best
results, we recommend you mount your cameras in a sheltered area, such as under the eave or roof of a building. Point the camera
in the direction you wish to observe. When routing cable near the camera, allow enough slack to form a U-shaped “drip loop” if it is
exposed to moisture or rain water. A drip loop helps to direct water, that accumulates on the cable, away from the camera.
