How to use

Mount the camera at a stable location with an unobstructed view of the monitored area and ensure the housing and mounting hardware are secured to withstand environmental conditions. Connect the device to your network using a PoE switch or injector to provide both power and data over a single Ethernet cable. Configure basic settings such as resolution, frame rate, exposure and IR behavior using the camera’s web interface or compatible NVR/software. Enable and tune analytics parameters to match the scene to reduce false positives and ensure recorded footage meets your monitoring needs.

Recommendations

For reliable performance, position the camera to avoid direct facing of strong light sources and maintain a clear line of sight. Regularly inspect seals and mounts for weather wear, and update firmware through the official management tools to keep analytics and security functions current.
