Installation
1.Installation Location
Choose a location with a clear, unblocked field of view and with a good wireless
signal to the camera. Please keep the following tips in mind:
• Make sure the wall is strong enough to withstand three times the weight of the
camera.
• Camera cannot be installed in front of an air conditioner or facing direct sunlight.
• Recommended installation height: 10 ft (3 m) above the ground.
Recommended installation angle: Tilt down 15 degrees.
Make sure that side-to-side traffic crosses camera’s field of view. The camera’s motion sensor is much more sensitive to side-to-side movement across its field
of view than to movement directly toward or away from the camera.
2.Installation Steps

anchors.- Use screws to fix the mounting plate according to the template.- Rotate the magnetic base (Fig.1) or screw base (Fig.2) to the mouting plate.- Mount the camera to the base.
