Installation
Note: Do not connect the USB Connector to your computer until you have
completed Step 2.
1. Insert the MobiCam® Software CD into the CD drive of your computer.
2. At the menu shown above, select “Install USB Drivers.” Once the installation
is completed you will need to reboot your computer before continuing.
Note: This step could take several minutes, depending on your connection speed, to download the latest version.
3. Plug the AC adaptors into your MobiCam®AV camera and monitor and turn
them on.
4. Connect the AV-to-USB adapter (included in with the Internet Kit) to the AV cord (included with the MobiCam®AV monitor) as shown here. Connect the Yellow to Yellow plug, Red to Red plug, and White to White plug. The S-Video (Black) plug is not used with the MobiCam®AVsystem.

If you are using another video source, connect the three AV connections from that source the same as above, or use the S-Video plug instead (if S-Video is available from your source).
5. Once your computer restarts close any programs on your PC and plug the USB adaptor into an available USB port directly on the computer. We recom­ mend you DO NOT connect the USB capture cable to the computer through a USB hub. Windows automatically recognizes, and installs, the USB adapter drivers for video and audio. Depending on your operating system you may be directed to the Install New Hardware Wizard. From there, select “Automatic Installation” and allow sufcient time for your PC to nd your new adapter and install the needed drivers. (Only after your hardware is installed success­ fully will you be able to get picture and sound to your PC). After installa-
tion is complete you may be asked to restart your computer depending on your operating system.
Note: If you disconnect your USB adapter you must reconnect to the same USB port each time. Otherwise the USB driver will need to be reinstalled. (This is a Window function for video devices.)
6. Make sure the USB
adapter is plugged into your PC then reinsert
(restart) the MobiCam
®
Software CD.
At this menu select
“Install” MobiCam
Software.

Upon successful installa-
tion you will see this.
