The MEGACAM 1 is a colour video camera with a built-in microphone. The camera signal can be connected to every so-called composite Video In. This signal can be connected live to the Video and Audio In of e.g. a TV, surveillance monitor, PC with Video In, VCR etc. The connection cable (included) has RCA plugs and a Scart adapter. By connecting the MEGACAM 1 to a VCR, DVD (hard disc) recorder or PC, audio and video can be recorded (e.g. for surveillance camera evidence).

4. USING THE CAMERA

1. Select a suitable place to mount the camera. It is a good idea to connect the camera to a TV or surveillance monitor first; This allows you to see the camera image on screen and choose the best location to ensure a good field of vision. Avoid any direct sunlight falling onto the lens, as this affects the image clarity.

Make sure you place the camera in a sheltered location if the camera is mounted outdoors. The camera is splash-waterproof conforming to the IP44 norm. The camera can become wet, but heavy jets of water or torrential rain penetrating the camera may cause damage.

THE POWER ADAPTER SHOULD ALWAYS BE PLACED INDOORS

2. Attach the wall bracket included. Only use the wall bracket included in the set. Never drill holes into the camera casing.

3. If you want to feed the connection cable through walls, make sure you drill a large enough hole to allow the MINI DIN plug and the cable to pass through without being damaged. Don’t pull the cable too hard.

4. There is a MINI DIN plug at the end of the cable. This plug can be connected to the extension cable included using an RCA plug for the audio and video signal and has a connection for the power adapter. Use the RCA plugs to connect the audio and video signal to e.g. the A/V In of your TV. Connect the yellow plug on the jack VIDEO and the white plug on the jack AUDIO LEFT. If your device has a scart connector, you may use the scart adapter provided. Ensure that the plug and socket colours match each other. Then connect the power adapter. Set your TV to the A/V channel (number 0 or the AV/Scart button on your remote control).
