Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation should be performed by mounting the camera on a secure ceiling surface. As a wired IP camera, you must ensure an Ethernet connection is available to the mounting point. The device uses standard TCP/IP networking, making it compatible with various VIGI network video recorders (NVRs) and VMS software. For care, keep the lens area clean using a non-abrasive, soft microfiber cloth to prevent scratches. While the housing is IP67 rated, ensure the cable connections are sealed or enclosed within the mounting base to prevent moisture ingress over extended periods.
