List make, model, resolution, sensor type, lens focal length, frame rate, and relevant certification ratings so performance expectations and replacement parts are clear.

Well-documented records reduce disputes, support insurance claims, and help meet regulatory or contractual obligations.
The document often requires signatures from an installer and an owner or authorized representative; signatory authority should be recorded in the signature block.
