  2. The Camera’s field of view should be setback no more than 25ft from the nearest edge of the pool.

  3. The Camera should be located at a height of 7-10ft from the ground tilted downward towards the pool.

  4. The field of view can be manually adjusted from 103° (wide) down to 32° (narrow) to compensate for camera setbacks greater than 25ft.
