The cameras included with your monitor are weatherproof and
have an IP66 weather rating. Water can be sprayed on them and
they will still work; however, the cameras cannot be submerged
underwater.

Although the cameras can be exposed directly to the rain, it is
recommended that, if they are used outdoors, they be mounted
under some type of cover like a patio overhang or eave. As rain­water drops start to dry on the camera glass, it can create spots
that will reect the light from the infrared LEDs used for night
vision, thus causing lower quality video.

Also, as dust, grime, and cobwebs accumulate on the camera
glass, they can reect light from the infrared LED and might
lower video quality. Periodically, clean the lens glass with a soft
cloth.

General Placement Considerations

Consider the following when placing the camera:

• Clear line of sight video transmission distance is up to 150ms.

- Walls, especially brick and concrete, shorten the transmission
distance.

- Placement next to windows allows better transmission.

• Avoid having a direct light source in view of the camera. This
includes street lights, ceiling or oor lamps, spotlights in the
driveway, etc.

• The cameras are equipped with built-in infra-red LEDs so you
can use night vision for 24-hour surveillance. The LEDs au­tomatically activate at night and the picture viewed turns to
black and white. The night viewing range is up to 5 ms. Avoid
pointing the camera lens directly at clear glass; the night vi­sion LEDs will cause a blurred image.

• Optimized motion detection range is up to 1.8ms. The farther
away an object is, the less accurate the motion detection.

• Avoid pointing the camera directly at any bushes, tree branch­es, or moving objects that might naturally move due to winds.
Otherwise, the motion detection feature may record unneces­sarily.

Installing the Camera

You can mount the camera with the stand on the bottom (for a
at surface such as a tabletop), on the side (for a wall), or on the
top (for the ceiling). When you are positioning the camera, you
might want to bring the monitor along; it’s much easier to get
the camera into the right position when you have the display
handy.

The following tools are
required:

• Electric Drill

• 5mm Drill Bit

• 15mm Drill Bit

• No. 2 Phillips Screwdriver

Mount the Camera Base

1. Hold the base of the

camera stand where you want to mount it and mark the
location of the screw holes.

2. Use the included screws to attach the base to the wall or

ceiling. You can also screw the base into a flat surface such as
a tabletop if needed.

3. Before attaching the camera, tug gently on the stand to make

sure it is securely in place.
