Installation Location Wireless communication range The wireless communication range of each device in the system from the hub is approximately 50 m indoors and approximately 300 m outdoors. Wireless communication may be unreliable when the following obstacles are located between the hub and other devices.
Installation Location Detection range Visual sensor Infrared sensor Can detect motion anywhere in the visible image. Can detect motion only in part of the visible image (shown here in grey) R You can adjust the area detectable by the visual sensor. For more information, refer to the User’s Guide (page 29). R You can adjust the area detectable by the infrared sensor. See “Adjusting the infrared sensor range”, page 25. R Detection does not occur when there are obstacles in front of the infrared sensor.
Installation Location Direction of motion It is easier to detect objects that move sideways in front of the camera, and more difficult to detect objects that move directly toward the front of the camera. A B C D A It is difficult to detect movement directly towards the front of the camera. B It is easy to detect movement sideways in front of the camera. C Detection range D Camera Helpline Tel.

Installation Location Installation location examples I want to detect visitors approaching the house Refer to the table below for detecting visitors at an entrance or gate without detecting cars in the street. Ideal example Poor example 1 1 Approx. 3 m Visitors pass in front of the camera from side to side, cars in the street are less likely to cause false detections. 14 Cars in the street are more likely to cause false detections. Helpline Tel. No.: U.K.
Installation Location I want to detect people entering the garage Refer to the table below for detecting people entering a garage without detecting cars in the street. Ideal example Poor example Visitors pass in front of the camera from side to side, cars in the street are less likely to cause false detections. R To prevent faces from being obscured by tall vehicles, adjust the installation position and angle of the camera. Cars in the street are more likely to cause false detections. Helpline Tel. No.
Installation Location Do not install in these locations Installing in the following areas may cause deformation, discolouration, malfunction, or operational failure R In direct sunlight or directly under an outdoor light (even if the surroundings are within operational temperature range, parts of the product may become hot) R Areas subject to frequent vibration, shock, or impact R Near fire, heating devices, magnetic fields (such as near magnets), or air conditioners (including outdoor equipment such as un
Installation Location R Areas affected by breezes from fans, air conditioning unit compressors, water heaters, or car exhaust (severe temperature variations may cause false detections) R Areas subject to severe weather, such as strong wind (camera shake can cause false detections) or rain (strong rain may be detected as an object moving in front of the camera) R Areas with reflective objects, such as glass, that can interfere with detection of temperature variation R Areas where brightness changes easily (
