! Important Notes for Reducing False Alarms
For reducing false alarms, please note that:
Do not install the camera facing any objects with bright lights, including sunshine,
bright lamplights, etc.
Do not install the camera in a place within 15 meters (50ft) where there are
frequently moving vehicles.
Stay away from the outlets, including the air conditioner vents,
humidifier outlets, the heat transfer vent of projectors, etc.
Do not install the camera facing the mirror.
Stay away from wireless interference, inlcuding WiFi routers, phones and other
wireless devices.
Cover the Monitoring Area
When installing the camera, it's not suggested to
make the PIR sensor vertically face the moving
object. Please note that if the moving object
approaches the PIR sensor vertically, the PIR sensor
may not detect the motion events. You are advised to
install the camera angularly (the angle between the
PIR sensor and the detected object is larger than
10°) for effective motion detection.
FYI:
The PIR sensor's detecting distance: 20ft
(in default)
The PIR sensor's detecting angle: 120° (H)
It's not suggested to make
