video surveillance

STEP 1: CHOOSE THE RIGHT LOCATION

This is the most important step, if it is neglected the result will not be as expected. No need to place cameras everywhere, the goal being to position the cameras in strategic places to monitor a specific area.

Here are our tips for selecting the right indoor locations

  • Fix the cameras in the corners to visualize the whole room to be monitored
  • Avoid any bright presence in front of the camera

Good outdoor locations

⦁ Fix the cameras between 2.5 and 5 meters high so that no one can access them.
⦁ Avoid any bright presence in front of the camera
⦁ Choose sheltered places or opt for cameras with visors to protect them from the elements

STEP 2: SETTING UP YOUR CAMERAS

Secure your cameras, they can be adapted to any type of surface thanks to their associated supports: wall, false ceiling, facade, roof cornice, post, etc. (see mounting feet) Here are some examples that can inspire you to choose the right mounting bracket

STEP 3: SETTING UP YOUR RECORDER

First and foremost, choose the location of your recorder. It must be placed in an easily accessible place in order to easily connect it to a box and / or a screen if necessary.
Avoid locations such as bedrooms, closets, confined spaces … The recorder needs to breathe!

⦁ Position the recorder, monitor and mouse
⦁ Connect it electrically
⦁ Connect the recorder to your Internet Box.

STEP 4: PULL THE CABLES

You must now connect your cameras to the recorder using the cables provided.

2 scenarios:

⦁ You have opted for KAMATEC cables with molded connectors: you can connect them directly to the cameras, then to the recorder and to the current for the analog solution. No need for a socket next to the camera, the double cable sends video and power. Ditto for the IP solution, the RJ45 cable sends video and power through the recorder.
⦁ You have video cables and BNC connectors / or network cables and RJ45 connectors: we recommend that you pull the cables out first, then crimp the connectors.

STEP 5: CONNECT ALL THE ELEMENTS OF THE SYSTEM

All cameras are now connected to your recorder. You can then turn on your computer and connect the recorder to your box if you haven’t already.
