Facing a camera toward a light source, window, or glass door can result in objects looking too

dark in the camera’s view when it is bright outside. Try to avoid pointing the camera straight at

a light source, out a window, or out a glass door to avoid having some objects too dark to view.

If you are using the typical RG-59 coaxial cable for video, a maximum length of 500 ft.

is recommended. If you need to install the cable farther than 500 ft., a CAT-5 cable and

transmitter is recommended.

Note Regardless of the length of your video cable, you will still need to

provide power within 100 ft. of the camera using a standard 18/2 power

cable.

All cameras are tested before they leave our warehouse, yet any number of things can happen

during shipment. To ensure proper behavior, please test all cameras by connecting them to the

DVR before installing the cameras.
