PROPER CAMERA INSTALLATION AND PLACEMENT
PLEASE NOTE: Installing your camera indoors pointing outside through a window,
will result in a glare or reection when “auto” is selected in the night vision
settings. This will also disable the cameras PIR sensor and will not be able to detect
motion outdoors.
IMPORTANT: To achieve the best signal transmission, angle the camera antenna
and the monitor antenna such that they are parallel to each other.
