INSTALL SHEET
OSMVC OUTDOOR STREAMING MOTION VIEWER
Mounting Recommendations
Please direct the OSMVC along a fence or a wall in order to protect an access point. The detector should not
be mounted close or above an access point. Such installation increase the probability of a missed intrusion.
For optimal use, the OSMVC MotionViewer mounting shall respect the following recommendations:
Mounting height :
RSI Video Technologies recommends a 2,5 m to 3,5 m mounting height.
When you install the MotionViewer higher, the detection distance is raised. However the sensitivity is reduced
and the blind area under the MotionViewer is larger.
When you install the MotionViewer lower, the sensitivity is raised and the blind area under the detector is reduced.
However the detection distance will be reduced.
Tilt :
Raising or reducing the tilt, even slightly, has a big impact on the detection distance and on the blind area under the
MotionViewer. We recommend to slightly tilt the OSMVC to reduce its detection range and avoid false alarms.
To precisely determine the tilt angle use a smartphone app like Smart Protector (Android) or Pitch Gauge (iOs).

Theoretical values estimated for default sensitivity.
These values only represent the physical limits of the OSMVC detection and not its maximum detection range. Long range sensitivity
is reduced and depends on infrared detection properties (see page 5).
* In some cases, false alarms can be triggered from outside the 14m detection limit (street, bushes, trees, etc). If that happens, please
slightly tilt the OSMVC downward to prevent false alarms.
