4
IR LED – Infrared LEDs provide viewing in no/low light conditions
5
PIR sensor – Detects motion in front of the lens and emits detection signal to transmitter
6
Speaker – Produces the sound transmitted from the monitor
7
Camera Antenna – Receives & Sends signals to or from the Receiver
8
Bracket – Use the bracket to mount the camera on a wall or other flat surfaces
9
AC Adaptor Jack – Plug the AC adaptor to the jack for camera's power supply
10
Pairing Button – The pairing button is located on the back of the camera behind by the stand mount
Note: This camera includes an Auto Mechanical IR Cut Filter. When the camera changes between day
mode and night vision mode, an audible clicking noise may be heard coming from the camera. This clicking
is normal, and indicates that the camera filter is working.
SET UP THE HARDWARE
Monitor
1 Flip out the stand on the back of the monitor; and position the antenna.
2 Connect an AC adaptor to the power input on the side of the monitor. Connect the other end of the
adapter to a standard indoor power outlet.
3 Press and hold the POWER button on the top of the monitor for 3 – 4 seconds to power it up.
4 The monitor displays the start up UI for a few seconds and then transitions to the LIVE view. The
screen remains dark until the cameras are powered up.
Camera
General
The camera included with your monitor is weatherproof and have an IP65 rating. Water can be sprayed on
them and they will still work; however, the cameras cannot be submerged.
Although the cameras can be exposed directly to the rain, it is recommended that, if they are used
outdoors, they be mounted under some type of cover like a patio overhang or eave. As rainwater drops
start to dry on the camera glass, it can create spots that will reflect the light from the infrared LEDs used
for night vision, thus causing lower quality video.
Also, as dust, grime, and cobwebs accumulate on the camera glass, they can reflect light from the infrared
LED and might lower video quality. Periodically clean the lens glass with a soft cloth.
Placement Considerations
Consider the following when placing cameras:
• The clearest line-of-sight between the camera and monitor is best.
- Walls, especially brick and concrete, shorten the transmission distance.
- Placement next to windows allows better transmission.
• Optimized motion detection range is 6...18 feet for the camera. The farther away an object is, the less
accurate the motion detection.
• Avoid having a direct light source in the view of the camera, including street lights, ceiling or floor
lamps, spotlights in the driveway, etc.
• Rainfall, pool water ripples/reflections, tree/shrub leaves blowing in the wind – and the shadows they
create – can generate motion detection false alarms.
