01Project checklist: areas and entrances
Mark entrances, work areas, stockrooms, delivery points and exterior routes on a layout. Add viewing distances and the detail needed at each position. For a restaurant, include dining, kitchen and bar views; use the same method for shops, offices and warehouses.
02Lighting at each view
Describe daylight, backlighting, and after-hours lighting at each position. This helps identify which night-view options need model-specific review or a sample test.
03Cable routes and existing equipment
Note cable access, approximate runs, network points, and existing camera or NVR models. These inputs support compatibility, PoE power, and accessory checks.
04Recording and storage days
State the required retention days, continuous or event recording, and planned camera count if known. These inputs support storage sizing and recorder capacity checks; final retention depends on the confirmed settings.
05Quantity, destination, and timing
Distinguish complete systems from individual cameras, give the delivery destination and installation date, and note any sample request. Sales can then review availability, shipping, and the proposed configuration.
06Acceptance and handover
List the views and functions to test, who needs playback access, and any required model documents. Agree the acceptance checks and support path before installation.
