adaptors.
!
Areas with a bright background may cause degradation of the image. If possible 
position your camera so that it doesn’t point towards a very bright light source.
!
Do not cut the DC power cable of the Camera to fit with another power source. 
This may result in damage to the Camera & any unauthorised modifications will 
void your warranty.
Best Results are achieved when the camera is looking down on the subject area.
The hood can be used to stop sunlight entering the lens and causing the picture 
to wash out during bright daylight. 
1.
 Deterrence is the best and most cost effective security method for:
  - preventing criminal activity before it occurs is preferable to, and cheaper 
than, cleaning up after it occurs
  - the Swann Maxi-Brite Camera is an example of cost effective security  
utilising the 'art of deterrence' to outsmart thieves and criminals
2. 
Always place cameras high enough that they can't be closely inspected or 
easily accessed
3. 
Position cameras and dummies where they can be easily seen for maximum 
deterrence
4.
Position a monitor where it can be seen but not touched
5. 
If you have more than one camera use a monitor with channel switching 
function, a Quad Processor or DVR with multiple views to show potential 
offenders the level of coverage you have protecting your site.
6. 
Add extra Swann dummy cameras to give the impression of heightened 
security
7. 
Purchase a Swann DVR to monitor and record activity on your cameras. 
Depending on the settings used, DVRs can record for months.
Your Maxi-Brite Camera is designed to transmit high quality color images to your
