Page 24: Mounting Recommendations
Installation Manual Mounting Recommendations For the best visibility toward the target, and a minimal blind spot below the camera, Arecont Vision recommends mounting panoramic cameras 15-20ft off the ground. If the application is unable to meet this criteria, for every 10ft the camera is mounted from the ground, expect a 10ft blind spot below, and the camera should be aimed ~100ft, for every 10ft mounted from the ground, toward the horizon. - Page 25 ® SurroundVideo G5 Mini Installation Manual In the example below, the camera in Figures 1D and 1E are both mounted 8ft high; however, the camera in Figure 1D is aimed 80ft toward the horizon and the camera in Figure 1E is only aimed at 30ft toward horizon.
