•
Test the cameras before permanent installation. Make a plan for camera
wire routing and for camera angle.
•
Mount the camera so the lens is away from direct and intense sunlight.
•
Plan to route the wiring so it does not interfere with power lines or telephone
lines.
•
Ensure that the camera wiring is not exposed or easily cut.
•
Mount the camera in an area that is visible, but out of reach.
•
Avoid pointing the camera at a glass window to see outside. This may result
in a bright white ring in the night vision image, as the light from the night
vision LEDs may refl ect off the glass.
• Adjust the camera angle so that it covers an area with high traffi c.
•
In “high-risk” locations, have multiple cameras point in the same area. This
provides camera redundancy if a vandal attempts to damage the camera.
The following installation instructions refer to the cameras included with
the GNVR package. If installing another manufacturer’s camera, refer to
installation instructions included with that camera.
1. Mount the camera(s) to the desired surface using the parts in the
supplied mounting kit. Choose a firm mounting surface. If mounting in
drywall, use the drywall anchors supplied in the kit.
2. Adjust the camera stand to ensure that the camera has a satisfactory
view of the area you would like to monitor. Stand configuration depends
on the mounting surface you have chosen (see below for suggested
stand configurations).
