When you reach the
‘Channel Settings’ screen, you will want to have
installed the cameras in their final position. Please make sure you
have mounted cameras at least 7ft. above the ground and angled them
slightly down.
At this stage of the Startup Wizard, you will be instructed on adjusting
the camera sensitivity and setting the Motion Detection Area. Having
your cameras in their final position will be key.
So, if you would like to detect motion for the front door to your home,
place the camera to the side of the entrance.
The infrared sensor
works best for
‘side to side’
movement across
the cameras field
of view as opposed
to movement
directly to or away
from the camera*
