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.
  • Make sure the power ports are 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.
