Install the Camera
- Install the camera 2-3 meters (7-10 ft) above the ground. This height maximizes the detection range of the PIR motion sensor.
- For better motion detection performance, please install the camera angularly.
NOTE : If a moving object approaches the PIR sensor vertically, the camera may fail to detect motion.
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 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.
Mount the camera to the wall

- Install the mount base with screws included in the package.
- To adjust the camera direction, you may control the camera to pan and tilt via Reolink App or Client.
