Click to learn more about using the Blink app.

Camera Placement

 

Blink cameras have an effective motion detection system, but it is possible that the camera will be triggered by more than just a human presence.

The InfraRed (IR) detectors in a Blink camera notice when heat is present in the camera view and the camera’s sensitivity setting relates to the size of the heat source that will trigger an alert. The camera does not see depth, so a nearby small object will appear similar to a large object in the distance, but their heat sources will normally be quite different.

The goal of tuning your camera sensitivity is helped by good camera placement. The camera’s Infrared motion detector is sensitive to heat differences in the view as an object moves, so any heat source could potentially trigger a motion alert. If your camera has a road in view, and passing cars reflect sunlight at certain times of the day, your camera will observe the flashes as heat and motion. If your camera is viewing trees that move in the wind, and the sun is behind them, that motion could be a trigger.

We have created camera sensitivity zones that you can select and disable to avoid false triggers. The camera sensitivity setting helps, but you will have the best experience if you place the camera looking at an area where you do not expect a lot of random motion. For instance, having the camera point toward an entrance is more effective than pointing the camera down the walkway from an entrance. The difference is, when pointing to the entrance, only motion at the door will trigger the motion alert. When pointing down the walkway, many possible triggers could send an alert that you are not interested in.

For motion alerts to be most reliable, place your camera so that the heat source must move across the view rather than toward the camera. Movement toward the camera produces far less difference over time than movement across the view.

Every motion alert will use some battery power, so it is a benefit to receive only the alerts you want.

To integrate Blink cameras with an Alexa device for really useful experiences, visit our Alexa Motion Announcement and Routine Trigger pages.

Mounting the camera

 

Blink lightweight wireless cameras are easy to mount securely.

Your Blink Outdoor, and Indoor (gen 2), camera comes with a right-angle adapter/opening tool and “volcano” cone-shaped camera mount matching the color of your camera body.

Mounting screws are included in the box.

Extra mounts and other accessories are easily found at amazon.com.

You can verify the camera view and check placement simply by holding your camera in the desired location, and using the Blink app to refresh the camera thumbnail, or enter Live View. Ensure that your preferred location has three bars of connectivity with both the Sync Module and your Wi-Fi network. Verify connectivity from the camera settings   screen of the Blink app.

Keep in mind that the best motion detection occurs when movement goes across the field of view. Motion directly toward or away from the camera can be harder to detect. Camera placement helps your camera settings be most effective. Learn more about tuning your camera here, and about camera placement here.

When you have determined the best location for your camera, secure the mount to a surface. If it is appropriate, use the included screws. The mount and screws are non-corrosive, but some moisture buildup may occur underneath the mount base.

How do I mount horizontally?

In horizontal locations such as a ceiling, or shelf, use the Right-angle adapter (pictured). This adapter snaps into the opening on the back of the camera, as shown with dashed lines below. Remove the silicone disc if it is present, to access the mount opening.

Now, press-fit the adapter onto the connecting point of the mount. You should detect a ‘snap’ indicating a secure attachment. Your placement may require that you attach the adapter to the camera before attaching both to the mount.

 

Vertical Mounting

In vertical mounting locations such as a wall or post, the camera can connect directly to the volcano mount. The camera opening snaps directly onto the mount as shown in the image.

When your camera is mounted, go to the Blink app and create a thumbnail or enter Live View, to know if the camera view is right, or needs to be adjusted.
