Fast Setup & Best Practice
- Placement: Mount near eye height, avoid strong back-lighting, then run a day/night test for framing and exposure.
- Network: Start on 2.4 GHz for range; add a mesh node if the nursery is far from the router.
- Motion tuning: Begin with medium sensitivity, add zones to ignore windows/TVs; enable human detection if available.
- Retention: Match card/plan to activity; export key clips promptly with a clear naming convention.
Quick Selection Guide
Small rooms
Go wide-angle, short-range IR, and AC power for scheduled recording.
Open areas
Prefer higher resolution and balanced IR for even coverage across the lounge or play area.
Temporary setups
Choose battery-powered wireless models with efficient smart motion detection.
Responsible Use & Compliance (AU)
Laws differ by state/territory. Use nanny cameras only for lawful purposes in spaces you own or control, obtain consent where required—especially for audio—and follow household and workplace privacy policies. This information is general in nature and not legal advice.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need internet for recording?
No. Many models record to microSD without internet. Wi-Fi is required for remote live-view, push alerts, and cloud backup.
Will no-glow 940 nm IR be visible at night?
940 nm emitters have a greatly reduced visible glow versus 850 nm, providing discreet night vision while maintaining usable brightness.
How do I reduce false alerts?
Use zones and human detection (model-dependent), avoid pointing at moving curtains or TVs, and fine-tune sensitivity.
Can I record audio?
Only where lawful and consented. Some regions require clear consent or signage. You can disable microphones in settings if unsure.
What resolution should I choose?
1080p suits most rooms; 2K/4K helps with small details or wider spaces. Pair resolution with a wide lens view that matches your layout.
How long does the battery last?
Battery life depends on motion volume and settings. For temporary installs, use motion-only recording to extend runtime, or choose AC power for 24/7 use.
