SETTING UP YOUR SCREENING STATION

1. Install the camera facing away from the entrance or windows.
2. Place the camera 6.5~16.4ft from the monitoring path (10ft is recommended).
3. Place the camera at a 20° angle from the monitoring path.
4. Make sure people are walking into the camera’s FoV rather than straight towards the camera.
5. Place the Blackbody across from the camera, positioned in the corner of the camera’s FoV.
6. The Blackbody should be 9.8~14.7ft from the camera (10ft is recommended). 5ft is the recommended height.

4. Do not install the camera or Blackbody under an air conditioner duct.
5. Strong fluorescent lights may impact temperature readings.
6. Sunlight from windows and large glass doors in the camera’s FoV may cause false readings.
7. Consider that any extensive physical activity performed before screening may impact the facial skin temperature captured by the camera.
8. IMPORTANT! Always follow elevated temperature readings with additional screening such as a medical thermometer and wellness questionnaire.
