General Placement Guidelines
The Uniden UDSC15 cameras included with your monitor are weatherproof and have an IP66 
weather rating. Water can be sprayed on them and they will still work; however, the cameras 
cannot be submerged underwater.  
Although the cameras can be exposed directly to the rain, it is recommended that, if they are used 
outdoors, they be mounted under some type of cover like a patio overhang or eave. As rainwater 
drops start to dry on the camera glass, it can create spots that will reflect the light from the infrared 
LEDs used for night vision, thus causing lower quality video.
Also, as dust, grime, and cobwebs accumulate on the camera glass, they can reflect light from the 
infrared LED and might lower video quality. Periodically clean the lens glass with a soft cloth.
Consider the following when placing cameras:
 
Clear line of sight video transmission distance is up to 500 ft.
 
Walls, especially brick and concrete, shorten the transmission distance.
 
Placement next to windows allows better transmission.
 
Avoid having a direct light source in the view of the camera, including street lights, ceiling or 
floor lamps, spotlights in the driveway, etc.
 
The cameras are equipped with built-in infra-red LEDs so you can use night vision for 24-hour 
surveillance. The LEDs will automatically activate at night and the picture viewed will turn to 
black and white. The night viewing range is up to 40 ft. Avoid pointing the camera lens directly 
at clear glass; the night vision LEDs will cause a blurred image.
 
Optimized motion detection range is 6 - 18 feet for the UDSC15 camera. The farther away an 
object is, the less accurate the motion detection.
