Camera Location Tips The location of cameras is essential. Positioning cameras at the proper places could maximize the proficiency of the camera. On the other hand, miss locating the cameras could result in blind spots, poor definition or having blur vision of the inspecting targets. Therefore, locations of camera should be well organized and refer to the below conditions: 1. The preferred monitoring area 2. Lighting and environmental conditions 3. The distance between the DVR/NVR and the camera Mount cameras at an elevated position Placing the cameras at a higher position would increase the inspecting area. The higher mounting positions also prevent the camera out of reach of intentional damage. Have the target area covered A sufficient range should be covered by the camera. For instance, the camera for garage inspecting should cover driveway and the garage gate. Hence the circumstance in front of the garage gate could be captured as much as possible with high video quality. Location suggestion 1. Front of House and Driveway It is recommended to have a camera monitor the front entrance, garden or driveway. To achieve a better field of view and avoid vandalize, the cameras should be install at the intersections between the roof and wall where the cameras could be sheltered. 2. Front Door It is important to install a camera at the front door since most burglars break in houses from the front entrance. The front door camera is recommended to set in an elevated position at a slight angle. Placing the camera at a slight angle provides a clear view to have facial recognition of those approaching people at the front door. 3. Backyard and Side Entrance To have an overview of the backyard, a camera installing at the intersection between roof and wall of the house would be recommended. Furthermore, if the house includes side gate and other entrances toward backyard, an additional camera might need to be considered to monitor these pathways. -3-

Camera Field of View The viewing area provided by a camera is the observable area the camera could deliver. As the level of definition and the focusing distance could be influenced, the camera setting should be considered according to the specific requirements. For instance, the wide-angle lens allows a wider area but smaller objects in the monitor area. Instead, the narrow-angle lens has a minor Field of View yet larger objects shown in the scene area. 3. Lighting and Environment Tips Lighting 1. Do not point the camera towards a light resource directly. 2. To avoid a poor display, please prevent the camera monitor through glasses. 3. The light in front of the camera should be bright as the location of the sensor to achieve the clearer results. 4.
