Where Should I Place My Smart Alarm Wireless Indoor Security Camera?

Updated 

Placement of your Smart Alarm Wireless Indoor Security Camera can vary from home to home. To get the most out of your camera, we recommend placing it in a spot that covers a significant portion of a room.

Here are some tips to keep in mind when finding the right location to install your camera:

  • Place the camera in a room or area where subjects are likely to spend time in if there is an alarm

  • The motion detector is most sensitive to side-to-side motion with its 125-degree field of view

  • Do not position the camera so that only a doorway is in frame

  • Do not position the camera to look outside through a window or doorway

The following is an example of a floor plan and how we would recommend placing the Smart Alarm Indoor Camera within this home.
