Installation Tips

Do not face the camera towards any light sources.
Do not point the camera towards a glass window. Otherwise, it may result in poor image quality because of the window glare caused by infrared LEDs, ambient lights or status lights.
Do not place the camera in a shaded area and point it towards a well-lit area. Otherwise, it may result in poor image quality. To ensure best image quality, the lighting condition for both the camera and the capture object should be the same.
To ensure better image quality, it’s recommended to clean the dome cover with a soft cloth from time to time.
Make sure the power port is not directly exposed to water or moisture and not blocked by dirt or other elements.
The waterproof camera can work properly under conditions like rain and snow. However, it doesn’t mean the camera can work underwater.
Do not install the camera at places where rain and snow can hit the lens directly.
The camera may work in extreme cold conditions as low as -25°C. Because when it is powered on, the camera will produce heat. You may power on the camera indoors for a few minutes before installing it outdoors.
