The development of modern technology makes our life more convenient and safer. The application of wireless surveillance camera systems in homes is becoming more and more common. It can not only help us take care of the elderly and children, but also protect our property safety. So, what do you do to install a wireless security camera system at home? This article will give you a detailed introduction.
1. Determine the monitoring area and installation location
First, you need to determine the area to be monitored and where to install the camera. For example, if you want to monitor the living room, bedroom, kitchen and other areas, you need to choose a suitable location for installation. It is recommended to choose a high place or a corner, which can cover the monitoring area to the greatest extent and avoid being discovered.
2. Choose the right wireless surveillance camera
After determining the installation location, you need to choose a suitable wireless surveillance camera. There are many types of wireless security cameras on the market, and you need to choose according to your needs and budget. Generally speaking, the resolution of 720P or 1080P is enough for daily use, and considering night monitoring, it is recommended to choose a camera that supports infrared night vision function.
3. Connect power and network
After placing the camera at the installation location, power it on and connect to the network. Generally speaking, wireless surveillance cameras need to be connected to Wi-Fi or wired networks to work properly. If it is a Wi-Fi connection, you need to download the corresponding APP on your phone and follow the prompts to set it up. If it is a wired network connection, the camera needs to be connected to the router. After connecting to the network, you can use Hikvision software or apps to access the camera and configure its settings, including resolution and recording schedule.
4. Install the bracket and adjust the angle
According to the installation location and monitoring area you choose, choose a suitable bracket for installation, and adjust the angle and direction of the camera. You can watch the monitoring screen in real time and fine-tune it through the mobile APP or computer client.
5. Set the alarm function
In order to better protect the safety of your family, you can set the alarm function. When an abnormal situation is detected, the camera will automatically send an alert notification to your phone. At the same time, you can also set the function of recording video or taking pictures for viewing and evidence collection.
The above are the specific steps to install a wireless surveillance camera system at home. Overall, the installation can be easily completed with just a few simple steps.
