How to use

Install the camera by securing the tube housing to a stable surface using an appropriate bracket and fasteners. Connect the video output to a compatible DVR or monitor using coaxial cabling and sync the chosen format (CVI/AHD/TVI/CVBS) on both the camera and the recording device. Provide suitable power according to system requirements and adjust focus and angle during setup to cover the intended area. Perform a test recording to verify image orientation, clarity, and compatibility with the recording equipment.

Usage recommendations

For best results, use shielded coaxial cables for video transmission and ensure connectors are protected from moisture if the camera is installed outdoors. Match the output format of the camera with the recorder before powering on to avoid signal incompatibility. Position the camera at a height and angle that minimise obstructions and glare; consider complementary lighting if monitoring low-light areas.
