Choosing an Installation Location

Please read the following information about the camera’s motion detection feature and built-in

sensor (BL-C160 only) before deciding where to mount the camera.

Detection Features

Motion Detection Feature

The camera detects changes in the images being displayed.

Active Motion Detection Range

• When the color of moving objects and the background are similar, motion may not be correctly

detected.

• If there are sudden changes to overall light levels, motion may be incorrectly detected.

• For up to 2 seconds immediately following the light turning on or off no detection will take place.

(BL-C160 only)

Camera

About 5 m (16 feet 5 inches)

Detection range length

About 45q

Detection range angle

Detection Range Characteristics of the Motion Detection Feature

• Motion detection becomes more difficult as it becomes darker.

• The motion detection function works by detecting changes in contour and brightness in moving

objects. This is done in order to reduce inaccurate detections due to changes in brightness.

• The camera can easily detect motion when objects move sideways in front of the camera, but

cannot easily detect motion when objects move toward the front of the camera.
