Installing the Camera(s)
3
CAUTION
Cameras are suitable for outdoor installation, but are weather resistant, not weatherproof. Cameras are
not intended for direct exposure to rain or snow. For outdoor applications, install under shelter pro-
tected from the elements, such as beneath roof eaves. The diagram below shows an example of an ideal
location for outdoor placement.
3.1 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, check the camera image on the receiver 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 cam-
era 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 unus-
able 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 addi-
tional cameras, you will need to pair them to the receiver, see 17 Pairing Additional
Cameras, page 49.
