V900-B1 GSM REMOTE CAMERA USER MANUAL

V900 Series GSM Remote Camera

Thank you for purchasing the V900. This camera is a remote controlled image-capturing device consisting of a microphone, infrared lights and a high quality

300,000-pixel camera lens. The V900 can capture images according to a

pre-programmed remote command and then send it to your multimedia messaging (MMS) enabled mobile phone with color display, or to an e-mail address. You can control and change the camera settings via SMS command.

The MMS sent by the V900 can be viewed either by using your mobile phone. You can also opt to view a slide of consecutive photos taken by the GSM Remote camera.

The built-in high-light infrared LED’s allows the camera to capture clear images, even in dark environment or areas with insufficient lighting.

The V900 is compatible with standard 433MHz (or 315MHz) wireless sensors such as wireless infrared body-, door- and smoking sensors.

As soon as the wireless sensor triggers the camera alarm, you or your families and/or your guards can thus receive the alarm message via SMS, MMS or standard calls, according to the pre-programmed.

However, the camera can perform its duty well without any wireless sensor too. The V900 has a motion detective function and an integrated infrared body detector. It will therefore detect any unauthorized entry into your house and notify you via SMS, MMS, standard calls or E-mail.

All services and functions need to be supported by the GSM network and a SIM card.

This brochure suits for V900-B1 model.

Details of the functioning and advanced operation of this device are described in this instruction manual.
