Testing your setup
It is recommended that you test your camera setup before permanent installation so that
you get the best picture and sound quality from your video monitor.
Test the camera and video monitor reception:
1 Plac
e the camera and video monitor in two different rooms.
2 Have one person monitor the signal strength on the video monitor.
3 If t
he signal strength is low, have a second person move the camera to different locations in
the room to find the best placement location.
Test the camera volume level:
1 Hav
e a person with the video monitor press and hold the TALK button to confirm the camera
volume level. Have the other person adjust the volume dial on the camera as required.
2 Hav
e the person near the camera speak into it to test the sound quality on the video monitor.
The person holding the video monitor can determine if the camera needs to move to a
different location in the room for better sound clarity.

Basic Setup
Use the cable clips to secure and manage the
cables. You can wrap the excess cable around the
security clip to reduce the cable length.
Positioning / wall mounting your camera
• Keep cables and wires at least 3 feet (1 meter) away from infants or young children.
• Use the cable clips to keep the power cords out of reach from young children and infants.
• Determine the camera position that will give you the best view before permanently mounting
the camera. Ensure the power cable is long enough to power the camera.
To wall mount your camera (LW2401 camera only)*:
1 Mark the screw holes using the template on page 50.
2 Drill the holes in the wall.
3 Insert the screw anchors (included) into the hole. Lightly tap the anchor into the hole with the
hammer until the anchor is flush with the wall.
4 Tighten the screw into the anchor, leaving 1/4" of the screw exposed.
5 Rotate the base of the camera as shown in “Adjusting camera view” on page 10.
6 Slide the back of the camera onto the screws and pull down to secure the camera in place.
7 Connect the power adapter to the camera.
8 Use the cable clips to keep the cables out of reach from infants and young children.
* An optional wall-mount accessory is available for the pan/tilt camera from
www.lorextechnology.com (accessory # ACCMNT2451). For wall/ceiling mounting
instructions for LW2401AC2, see the LW2401AC2 Quick Start Guide.
