You can place the camera on a shelf or other surfaces to use, or you can install it on a wall.

Select a good spot for your camera

Install the camera in a position where its view is not blocked and ensure that it is within the coverage of the Wi-Fi network. The PIR infrared sensor is more sensitive to movements across the camera’s field of view than movements toward or away from the camera.

Install the bracket

3M adhesive fixing:
Remove the protective film on one side of the 3M adhesive and stick it to the mounting surface of the bracket. Then remove the protective film on the other side to fix the mounting bracket in the installation position. (The installation surface must be clean, smooth, and dry. It is not suitable for uneven wood, leather, or stucco walls). Please press and hold the bracket in the installation position for 3 minutes to achieve the best adhesion.

Screw fixing:
Use the drilling tool to punch holes in the wall according to the hole distance of the base. It is recommended to mark the holes on the wall with a pencil before drilling. Screw the expansion nut into the holes on the wall, and then connect the bracket to the expansion nut with screws to complete the fixing.

Adjust the angle
Attach the camera to the magnetic bracket, the best angle is about 15 degrees downward, then adjust the surveillance angle.
