Section 2 - Installation

Please read all of the safety and operating instructions before using device:

• Do not submerge the device in liquid or attempt to clean it with liquids or solvents. To clean the device, disconnect it

from the power outlet and use a damp towel to gently wipe it down.

Before you Begin

Plan the location of your camera:

• Connect the camera’s power adapter into an electrical outlet that is not controlled by a wall switch. This will help avoid

accidentally turning o power to the device.

• Be sure to plug the device into a properly grounded electrical outlet in order to help prevent against electrical shock.

• Make sure that the device is rmly mounted.

Wireless Installation Considerations

The DCS-8000LH Mini HD Wi-Fi Camera lets you view video footage from virtually anywhere within the operating range

of your wireless network. Keep in mind that the number, thickness and location of walls, ceilings, or other objects that

the wireless signals must pass through may limit the range. Typical ranges vary depending on the types of materials and

background RF (radio frequency) noise in your home or business. The key to maximizing wireless range is to follow these

basic guidelines:

1. Keep the number of walls and ceilings between the camera and wireless access point to a minimum - each wall or ceiling

can reduce your camera’s range from 1 to 30 meters (3 to 90 feet). Position your devices so that the number of walls or

ceilings is minimized.

2. Be aware of the direct line between network devices. A wall that is 0.5 meters (1.5 feet) thick, at a 45-degree angle

appears to be almost 1 meter (3 feet) thick. At a 2-degree angle it looks over 14 meters (42 feet) thick! Position devices so

that the signal will travel straight through a wall or ceiling (instead of at an angle) for better reception.

3. Building materials make a dierence. A solid metal door or aluminum studs may have a negative eect on range. Try

to position access points, wireless routers, and cameras so that the signal passes through drywall or open doorways.

Materials and objects such as glass, steel, metal, walls with insulation, water (sh tanks), mirrors, le cabinets, brick, and

concrete will degrade your wireless signal.

4. Keep your product away at least 1 to 2 meters (3 to 6 feet) from electrical devices or appliances that generate RF noise.
