Antenna: For best results, this should be fully extended, as high as possible and with as few
obstructions as possible between the camera and receiver.
IR LEDs: These powerful LEDs put out light that the human eye cannot see, but which the
image sensor in the camera can. It acts as a flood light at night so that the camera can see.
Power / Link LEDs: The
red
power LED will be lit whenever the camera is being supplied
enough power to operate (typically, whenever it's connected to its power adapter). The
green
link LED will be lit when the camera and receiver are able to properly communicate back and
forth.
Lens: The business end of the camera - where light enters the barrel and is focused on the
image sensor.
Light Sensor: Detects light levels and turns the LEDs on and off automatically
Stand: The camera should be firmly mounted to a wall, ideally about 10' (3m) off the ground.
At this height, it's low enough to see detail where needed, but high enough to be out of harm's
way. See the "Mounting Guide" on page 21 for more information on mounting the camera.
Power Socket: For connecting the included 5V power supply, push the plug in firmly to en-
gage the rubber seal. This connection is water resistant: if you have to mount the camera
somewhere exposed to the elements, then this connection should be protected from the
weather. We suggest a generous coating of a silicone-based sealant or waterproof tape.
Pairing Button: The pairing button is located on the end of the power cable of the camera
shielded from the weather by a silicone rubber layer.
