Configuration and image quality
Each supplied camera records colour footage at 5 MP and 15 frames per second. That frame rate is sufficient for everyday monitoring, although motion will not appear as smooth as it would at a higher frame rate.
The cameras have swivel joints with a range of 180° vertically and 360° horizontally. These allow the cameras to be pointed towards the area being monitored; the stated range does not in itself mean that they can be rotated remotely by a motor.
The cameras’ IP66 rating indicates protection against dust and powerful jets of water. They are therefore suitable for outdoor use, but the rating does not guarantee protection from damage in every weather condition.
Person detection and audio
Person detection is built into the camera and can help alert users to someone in the monitored area. It will not necessarily recognise a threat reliably or eliminate all unnecessary alerts.
The camera also records one-way audio. Sound can therefore add context to recorded footage, but it cannot be used for two-way communication. When positioning cameras, consider the privacy of people within range of the video and audio recording.
Wi-Fi, remote viewing and power
The system has integrated Wi-Fi and supports live remote viewing, including from a mobile device. Access from outside the monitored location requires an appropriate network and internet connection.
Wi-Fi can reduce the need for network cabling, but it does not make the installation completely cable-free. The cameras are powered through a 12 V adapter, so an electricity supply must be available where they are installed.
Recording storage and package dimensions
An HDD is not included. One must be purchased separately to store recordings, with capacity chosen according to the intended use. Check that the drive is compatible with the system before buying it.
The package measures 28 × 28.6 × 33 cm, which is useful to know for transport and storage. These dimensions do not indicate how much space the equipment itself will need once installed.
