Once the camera is securely mounted and connected to your DVR, power on your DVR system. The camera will automatically power on and begin transmitting video to the connected channel on your DVR.
2. Key Features
True Detect™ Thermal and Motion Detection
The camera utilizes True Detect™ technology, which combines heat and motion sensing to accurately detect moving objects, such as people and cars, reducing false alarms triggered by environmental factors like leaves or rain. This feature is managed through your connected DVR settings.
Color Night Vision
With its advanced image sensor, the camera provides full-color video surveillance even in low-light conditions, offering more detailed and informative footage than traditional black and white night vision.
