• Not intended for submersion in water. Installation in a sheltered location
recommended.
• This camera includes an Auto Mechanical IR Cut Filter. When the camera changes
between Day/Night viewing modes, an audible clicking noise may be heard from
the camera. This clicking is normal, and indicates that the camera filter is working.
• For optimal remote viewing from your recorder, an upload speed of 256kbps per
camera is required (default setting). For example, your Internet service package
must support 2Mbps or greater upload speed for 8 cameras, 4Mbps or greater
for 16 cameras, and 8Mbps or greater for 32 cameras (your Internet service
provider can confirm your upload speed). You may lower the resolution and
bitrate of camera video streams to further boost performance for slower Internet
connections. See your NVR's user manual at lorex.com for full instructions (see
"Configuring Recording Quality" section).
