EN INSTRUCTION MANUAL

Congratulations on your purchase of this A855
Day & Night Security Camera. This camera can
operate in almost all lighting conditions, from
bright daylight (provided it’s not pointed straight
toward the sun) to pitch darkness.
The camera is very sensitive to light and there-
fore can make use of even the smallest amount
of light to provide an image of what it sees. In low
light, this comes through as a black and white
image.
In complete or near-total darkness, the cam-
era uses built-in infrared LEDs to illuminate the
area in front of it. This light is invisible to the hu-
man eye, although you might notice a faint red
glow coming from the front of the camera - this
is normal.
In day or well-lit environments, the IR Cut Fil-
ter feature of the camera activates to filter out
wavelengths of light the camera does not need
in order to provide a clear color image.
Important note - All jurisdictions have specific
laws and regulations relating to the use of cam-
eras. Before using any camera for any purpose,
it is the buyer’s responsibility to be aware of all
applicable laws and regulations that prohibit or
limit the use of cameras and to comply with the
applicable laws and regulations.
Warning - Modifications not approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void user’s au-
thority to operate the equipment.
Important safety instructions
1) Make sure product is fixed correctly and stable
if fastened in place.
2) Do not operate if wires and terminals are ex-
posed.
Introduction

Choosing a location for your Camera
Some things to consider when choosing a location -
1) What you want to monitor and where you’ll get the
best view of it.
2) How you’re going to connect the camera to your
monitoring system; remember that cables and
connections should be kept out of the weather.
3) How to keep the camera out of harm’s way. It’s
recommended to mount your cameras at an elevated
position.
4) Place your camera as close to the area of interest
as practicable. The best position is from about 4m
(13ft) above looking slightly down, keeping in mind
the details you are looking for.
5) Although the sky looks nice when you look at the
live view from your camera, it is an unlikely direction
for an offender to approach, make sure your camera
has minimal sky in it as the light in daylight can make
the foreground of the image darker.
6) Think about the most likely way a potential offender
may approach your home, use your cameras to give
you the best coverage of these areas.
7) The camera’s casing is resistant to water, different
weather conditions and tampering. It would take
an overwhelming event of this kind to damage the
housing of the camera. However, the cable and
connector are vulnerable and require protection.
8) Even though the camera is weather and water-
resistant, prolonged exposure to adverse weather
conditions such as sunlight or excessive moisture,
may eventually damage the internal components of
the camera and adversely affect its performance.
9) When running your cable, try to avoid bending it at
sharp angles.
10) Don’t put your cable near live electrical wiring.
AC electricity generates radio “noise” which can
interfere with the signal from your camera.

Mounting your Camera
1
2
3
The camera has three points of articulation. The most obvious is the hex
screw secured elbow joint in the centre of the stand (2). This one is pretty
obvious and straight forward – using an Allen key, loosen the hex screw
and adjust to the position you want (up or down). Tighten the hex screw
again to secure in place.
The second point of articulation (1) is the radial joint where the neck of
the stand is attached directly to the camera. To adjust this joint, loosen
the hex screw on each side. This enables you to spin the camera left or
right so no matter what direction the camera is facing, your images will
be oriented correctly. Tighten the hex screw again to secure in place.
To rotate the camera left or right (3), loosen the hex screw on each side
then tighten again to secure in place.
Of course, there will always be some outlying cases where the camera
and stand simply won’t fit where you want to mount them. Maybe you
have a hanging awning, or a drain pipe in an inconvenient spot. In these
cases, we suggest obtaining a mounting bracket, which should be
available from any good hardware store.
