SAFETY AND INSTALLATION TIPS
LCD Touch Screen Monitor
Keep away from heat sources and high temperature places Avoid direct sunlight Avoid humid places Avoid vibration Install in a ventilated environment Supports up to 32GB SD card (not included)
Installation Notes
Always follow manufacturer’s advice when using power t ools, steps, ladders, etc and wear protective equipment ( e.g, safety goggles and gloves) when drilli ng holes, etc.
When using ladders ensure they are positioned on a firm stable surface at an angle and suitably secured. Check for hidden electricity wires or water pipes before drilling any holes. If in doubt use a cable/pipe locator. It is recommended to avoid exposing the camera to extreme weather conditions (e.g, under a gutter which is prone to wa t er lea ks) . After drilling any holes through an external wall for a cable, ensure the hole is sealed up using a suitable sealant to prevent dra fts.
To prevent a fire or electrical shock hazard, do not attempt to open the housing while the camera is exposed to wet conditions. Do not expose any wiring connections to weat hering. If terminating any wir i ng conne ctions outdoors then use a suitable weathering box to insulate the connectio n s .
There are no user serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.
Camera Installation
Avoid positioning th e ca me r a so that it is facing directly at the sun as this will impair the picture quality viewed. Avoid pointing the camera lens directly through clear glass as the night vision LEDs will cause a blurred image at night. Avoid pointing the camera directly at any bushes, tree branches or moving objects that might naturally move due to winds. This is also because if you need to use the motion detection feature to record movement the software might record unnecessarily.
NOTE: The camera has an open field RF operating range of up to 500’.
