How to install a VicoHome camera?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
    \n
  1. Before installing the VicoHome camera, please connect the camera and test for proper function before installing the camera.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Make sure the camera is not blocked and ensure it is in coverage of Wi-Fi.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Install the VicoHome camera in the places you need to monitor, such as the front door, the small trail, the garage, etc., and select one to look down at the installation location of the entire place.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Motion sensors are more sensitive to horizontal motion than vertical movements. To get the best detection effect, make sure that the objects you want to monitor can face the lens horizontally.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Please install the VicoHome camera at about 2 meters from a height of about 10 \u00b0 to 15\u00b0. At this time, the motion detector of the camera will perform best. In addition, the motion detector is the best detection effect within a range of 1.5 meters to 6 meters from the camera.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
