Before you begin, if this CheckVideo device will be monitored by a
central staon, please contact the central staon for a username and
password on their exisng CheckVideo account. The central staon will
add the device to their account. If this device will be self-monitored,
you will be creang a CheckVideo account in Step Five.

Step Two Camera Placement
Fig. 1 - MORE EFFECTIVE: Cameras
are at a 15 to 45 degree downward
lt and are mounted 8 to 20 feet high.
Fig. 2 - LESS EFFECTIVE: Cameras are
directly overhead (90 degrees) or
parallel to (0 degrees) the target
To opmize event detecon, the cameras you use with CheckVideo
should be placed as follows:
• HEIGHT: Each camera must be installed 8 to 20 feet o the
ground.
• DISTANCE: The distance between camera and target depends
on your camera’s focal length. For example, for a 3.6 mm lens,
if you are mainly detecng people, the distance between the
camera and the people you wish to detect should be 10 to 40
feet. If you are primarily concerned with detecng vehicles, the
range is 20 to 60 feet. See the CheckVideo Camera Placement
Guide for more details and for addional guidelines on
improving your camera placement.

Installaon Quick Reference
Step Three Gateway Setup
1. Aach the antennas to the Franklin Module. The antenna with
the white stripe at the base should be on the le when looking
at the front of the device (Fig. 3).
2. Extend the ps of the antennas outward from the Module.
There should be a good distance between the ps, but not so
great that they are at (Fig. 4).
3. Connect the USB cable between the USB port on the Gateway
back panel and the USB port on the front of the Franklin
Module (Fig. 5).
4. Connect each camera’s video cable to a camera port on the
back of the Gateway.
5. Plug in the power to the Franklin Module (12V DC, 1A).
IMPORTANT: Do not use the Gateway’s power supply (which
is larger) to power up the Franklin module. Doing so may
seriously damage the module.
6. Plug in the power to the Gateway (9V, 1.66A).
7. Wait a few minutes for the power light on the front of the
Gateway to ash rapidly.
8. When the ashing slows to one second per pulse, proceed to
the next step in the process (see reverse).
