Camera Placement

• Place the camera close to your Wi-Fi router as possible.
• Reduce the number of obstructive materials between the camera and the router or access point. Concrete, brick, metal, and wood are the most common materials in your house that can cause poor signal strength.
• Other electronic devices such as microwaves, TVs, cordless phones, and baby monitors can cause signal interference. It is recommended to install the camera as far away from these devices as possible.

Optimize Motion Detection

Distance Optimal accuracy for objects within 5ft to 50ft (1.5~15m).
Angle Angle the camera around 30°-60° down from the level position.
Height Install the camera between 8-16ft (2.5~5m) off of the ground.

Note: Accuracy of person detection will be influenced by multiple factors, such as the person’s distance from the camera, the height of the person, and the height and angle of the camera. Night vision will also impact the accuracy and distance of detection.

Wall Mounting

To wall mount the camera:

1. Place the mounting template onto the desired location.
   Note: Ensure an outlet is nearby, and keep in mind the cable lengths.

2. Using a 15/64″ (6mm) drill bit, drill 2 holes over the triangle symbols on the template.
   Optional: Drill 15/64” (6mm) holes for the anchors.

3. Align the arrows of the mounting plate and template. Using a screwdriver and the provided screws, secure the mounting plate to the surface.

4. Align the arrows between the wall mounting bracket and plate. Push the bracket in to install, then slide down to lock in place. You will hear a ‘click’ when the bracket is installed.

5. Attach the camera to the mounting bracket using the threaded insert at the rear of the camera. Rotate the camera clockwise until attached, then tighten it into place with the adjustable nut.

6. Adjust the camera to the desired angle.

Note: If the camera is not holding in place or difficult to adjust, unplug the camera and slide the bracket up to detach from the mounting plate. Tighten or loosen the 3 screws at the back of the mounting bracket to adjust accordingly. Repeat steps 4-6 to re-install.

Ceiling Mounting

To ceiling mount the camera:

1. Place the mounting template onto the desired location.
   Note: Ensure an outlet is nearby, and keep in mind the cable lengths.

2. Using a 15/64″ (6mm) drill bit, drill 4 holes over the X symbols on the template.
   Optional: Drill 15/64” (6mm) holes for the anchors.

3. Remove the 4 pre-inserted plugs from the ceiling/table mounting bracket.

4. Attach the camera to the ceiling/table mounting bracket using the threaded insert at the rear of the camera. Rotate the camera clockwise until attached, then use the wrench to tighten the adjustable nut in place.

5. Place the bracket over the drilled holes. Using a screwdriver and the provided screws, secure the bracket to the surface.

6. Rotate the adjustable ring counter-clockwise to loosen and adjust the camera to the desired position, then tighten to secure.

Optional:

• Feed the camera cable through the hole at the base of the bracket or the mounting surface.
• Open the camera’s settings in the app and enable Image Rotation to flip the camera image.
