Usage recommendations

Position the camera to cover the main area of interest without excessive tilt to maximize the effective field of view of the fixed 3.6 mm lens. Use 5MP resolution where finer detail is required for identification; use 2MP for longer recording periods or when storage bandwidth is limited. Regularly inspect mounts and housings, and perform lens cleaning as needed to maintain image clarity.
