General Guidelines
The Uniden Guardian GC45 cameras included with your monitor are weatherproof and have an IP66 rating. Water can be sprayed on them and they will still work; however, the cameras cannot be submerged.
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 reflect 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 reflect light from the infrared LED and might lower video quality. Periodically clean the lens glass with a soft cloth.
Placement Considerations
Consider the following when placing cameras:
•• The clearest
——Walls, especially brick and concrete, shorten the transmission distance.
——Placement next to windows allows better transmission.
