such as under the eaves on a roof.

will be sideways. You can also refer to the included installation diagram guide for wall
mounting instructions.
• Camera is capable of seeing in low light conditions (0.2 Lux), but it cannot see in total
darkness.
NOTE
It is recommended to install the camera where there is some ambient light (for example, street lighting or
starlight, moonlight, etc.) or leave some lighting on in the area where the camera is installed.
• Mount the camera in a location that can support the camera weight.
• Mount the camera where the lens is away from direct and intense sunlight.
• Plan your cable wiring so that it does not interfere with power lines or telephone lines.
• Ensure you adhere to local building codes.
• Ensure that the camera wiring is not exposed or easily cut.
• Mount the camera in an area that is visible but out of reach.
NOTE
This camera is suitable for ceiling mounting. Wall mounting requires included wall mount.

4.2 Installation (Indoor/Outdoor)

The camera includes all necessary components for ceiling mounting and wall mounting. For full
instructions on each type of mounting, see 4.2.1 Wall Mounting or 4.2.2 Ceiling Mounting.
Before installing the camera, decide whether to run the cables through the wall / ceiling (drilling
required) or along the wall / ceiling. If you run the cables along the wall / ceiling, you must run
the cable through the cable notch on the dome camera base. This will keep the dome camera base
flush to the ceiling when mounted.
