Camera Installation

Before you install the camera*, carefully plan where and how it will be positioned, and where you will route the cable that connects the camera to the DVR.

Installation Warnings:

Select a location for the camera that provides a clear view of the area you want to monitor, which is free from dust, and is not in line-of-sight to a strong light source or direct sunlight.

Plan the cables’ route so that it is not close to power or telephone lines, transformers, microwave ovens or other electrical equipment that could interfere with the DVR.

Select a location for the camera that has an ambient temperature between 14°F~113°F (-10°C~45°C)

If you plan to install the camera in a location that has conditions not recommended in this manual, consult with a professional installer and consider use of a separate camera cover or housing

Before starting permanent installation, have another person hold the camera for you while you verify its performance by observing the image on a monitor.
