Installation Tips
• Do not face the camera towards any light sources.
• Do not point the camera towards a glass window. Or, it may result in poor image quality because
of the window glare 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. Or, it may result in
poor image quality. To ensure best image quality, the lighting condition for both the camera and
the capture object shall be the same.
• To ensure better image quality, it's recommended to clean the lens with a soft cloth from time to
time.
• Make sure the power ports are not directly exposed to water or moisture and not blocked by dirt
or other elements.
• With IP waterproof ratings, the 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.
• The camera may work in extreme cold conditions as low as -25°C. Because when it is powered
on, the camera will produce heat. You may power on the camera indoors for a few minutes before
installing it outdoors.
