Tips for Camera Placement
- Do not face the camera towards bright light sources, including sunlight or streetlights.
- Avoid pointing the camera at a glass window, as infrared LEDs, ambient lights, or status lights can cause glare and result in poor image performance.
- Do not place the camera in a shaded area and point it towards a well-lit area. Ensure consistent lighting conditions for both the camera and the subject for optimal image quality.
- For better image quality, clean the lens periodically with a soft cloth.
- Ensure power ports are not exposed to water or moisture and are not blocked by dirt or other elements.
