Installing the camera

Installation Tips:

• Before you install the camera, plan where and how it will be positioned, and where you will

route the cable that connects the camera to the power adapter.

• Before starting permanent installation, have another person check the camera image on the

monitor when camera is positioned in the same place it will be permanently installed.

• It is recommended to ensure a clear line-of-sight between the camera and receiver and to

limit the amount of obstructions, such as walls and tree branches, between the camera and

receiver. Walls made of heavy building materials such as brick or concrete will significantly

reduce signal range.

• If the signal will have to pass through a wall, placing the receiver or camera next to a window

will improve the signal strength.

• Do not install the camera pointing out of a window. The nighttime picture will be unusable

due to reflection from the night vision LED’s.

• The cameras are pre-paired so they work out of the box. Each camera has a channel number

sticker indicating what channel they are paired to. If you have purchased additional cameras,

you will need to pair them to the receiver, see “Pairing/adding cameras” on page 33.

To install the camera:

1 Use the included mounting screws to mount the stand to the mounting surface:

• Mark the position of the screw holes on the wall.

• Drill holes and insert the drywall plugs as needed.

• Firmly attach the stand to the wall using the provided screws.

Cameras are suitable for outdoor installation, but are weather resistant,

not weather proof. Cameras are not intended for direct exposure to

rain or snow. For outdoor applications, install under shelter protected

from the elements, such as beneath roof eaves. The diagram below

shows an example of an ideal location for outdoor placement.
