7. OPERATION
Selecting channel and output format
The channel selection must be in line with the channel selection on your display device
(receiving device). The free eld operating distance of the camera to the display device is
approximately 60 m. Obstacles such as walls or magnetic interferences can shorten the
operating distance.
Before you set the output format (PAL/NTSC) disconnect the power supply to the camera.
The camera will only stream video with the set output format after you restart the camera.
Please select channel (frequency) and video output format (PAL, NTSC) as illustrated in below
diagram (see Fig. 3). Use a thin and dull object to set the switches, e.g a tooth-pick. Sharp objects
damage the switches.
