Important Installation Guidelines

Optimizing Person and Vehicle Detection Accuracy:

  • Angle the camera so that objects of interest appear in the bottom ⅔ of the camera image.
  • Choose a location where objects of interest will be no further than 50ft (~15m) from the camera.Lower accuracy for objects further away than 50ft (~15m) and/or in the top ⅓ of the image.Optimal accuracy for objects within 50ft (~15m) and in the bottom ⅔ of the image.
  • Angle the camera between 30~60° down from the level position.
  • Install the camera between 8-16ft (2.5-5m) off of the ground.

NOTE: Accuracy of person and vehicle detection will be influenced by multiple factors, such as the object’s distance from the camera, the size of the object, and the height and angle of the camera. Night vision will also impact the accuracy of detection.

Additional Installation Tips:

  • Point the camera where there is the least amount of obstructions (e.g., tree branches).
  • Install the camera where vandals cannot easily reach.
  • Secure cabling so that it is not exposed or easily cut.
  • This camera is rated for outdoor use. Installation in a sheltered location is recommended.

Disclaimers

  • For a full list of compatible recorders, visit lorex.com/compatibility.
  • Not intended for submersion in water. Installation in a sheltered location is recommended.
  • This camera includes an Auto Mechanical IR Cut Filter. When the camera changes between Day/Night viewing modes, an audible clicking noise may be heard from the camera. This clicking is normal and indicates that the camera filter is working.

Installing the Camera

ATTENTION:Test your camera prior to selecting a permanent mounting location by temporarily connecting the camera and cable to your NVR.

Before Installing the Camera

  • Decide whether to run the cables through the wall/ceiling (drilling required) or along with the wall/ceiling.
  • If you run the cables along with the wall/ceiling, you must run the cable through the cable notch on the base. This will keep the camera base flush to the surface when mounted.

To install your camera:

  1. Use the included Allen key to loosen the screw on the dome cover. Do not loosen all the way.
  2. Separate the camera base, ball camera, and dome cover.
  3. Use the included mounting template to mark holes for the mounting screws and camera cable.
  4. Drill holes for the mounting screws and camera cable.
  5. Feed the camera cable through the camera base. If you are running the cables against a wall or ceiling, make sure to pass the cable through the cable notch as shown above.
  6. Connect the cables as shown in the section ‘Connecting the Camera’.
  7. Mount the camera base to the mounting surface using the included screws.
  8. Place the dome cover over the ball camera.
  9. To attach the dome cover to the camera base:A. Angle the dome cover as shown above.B. Align the protruding metal inside the dome cover with the indent on the camera base.C. Attach the dome cover onto the camera base. Ensure that the dome cover lays flat against the camera base.
  10. Use the included Allen key to tighten the dome cover screw halfway onto the camera base. Do not tighten all the way.
  11. Move the ball camera to the desired position. Tighten the dome cover screw all the way.

Connecting the Camera

Troubleshooting

Problem

Solution
No picture / signal •  Ensure the camera is connected to a compatible NVR. For full camera compatibility, visit lorex.com/compatibility.•  The camera may take up to 1 minute to power up after being connected to the NVR. Wait two minutes before following the steps below.•  Ensure the camera is connected to your NVR or to your local network.•  If you are not using PoE, you must connect the camera to a 12V DC power adapter (not included).•  If the camera is connected to the LAN, you must search your network for cameras using the NVR. See the NVR’s instruction manual.•  Ensure your NVR is properly connected to a TV/monitor.•  There may be an issue with your extension cable run. Connect the camera to the NVR using a different Ethernet cable.
The picture is too bright •  Ensure your camera isn’t pointed directly at a source of light (e.g., sun or spotlight).•  Move your camera to a different location.•  Check the brightness and contrast settings on the NVR.
The picture is too dark •  Check the brightness and contrast settings on the NVR.
Night vision is not working •  The night vision activates when light levels drop. The area may have too much light.
The picture is not clear •  Check the camera lens for dirt, dust, spiderwebs. Clean the lens witha soft, clean cloth.•  Make sure that the cable run is within the limitations specified in the section ‘Cable Extension Options’.
A bright spot in the video when viewing camera at night •  Night vision reflects when pointing a camera through a window. Move the camera to a different location.
The picture is in color in dark conditions •  This camera comes with an image sensor that is extra sensitive to light, meaning that the camera stays in color mode at low-light conditions. For instructions on how to make your camera switch to night mode, visit lorex.com, and search for “How do I make my camera switch to night mode?”
No audio •  Audio is only supported on Lorex HD NVRs. For a list of compatible recorders, visit lorex.com/compatibility.•  Ensure NVR volume is turned on / turned up.•  Ensure the audio function on the camera is turned on (see ‘Disabling Camera Audio’).•  Ensure audio is turned up on the viewing device.
