INTRODUCTION Section 1

The Response Wired Heavy Duty Cameras are colour, weatherproof day/night cameras.

The cameras easily connect to your DVR for the protection of your home or office, etc. The
cameras are easily mounted on the wall using the supplied mounting brackets.

The Response 4 Channel DVR provides a total video security solution for 4 channel digital
surveillance supporting duplex (simultaneous playback and record) functionality.

The DVR’s front panel buttons or mouse can operate all DVR menu settings.

SAFETY AND INSTALLATION TIPS:

Do not attempt to open the units with the power adaptor plug connected to avoid any risk

of personal injury.

When installing CCTV camera(s), always follow manufacturer’s advice when using power
tools, steps, ladders, etc. and wear suitable protective equipment (e.g. safety goggles) when
drilling holes. Before drilling holes through walls check for hidden electricity cables and
water pipes. The use of a cable/pipe detector is advisable.

When installing any cameras with this unit, it is advisable to use cable conduit to protect any
video/power extension cables from being exposed externally and to prevent/reduce the
chances of the cables being tampered with. After drilling any hole though an external wall
for a cable, ensure the hole is sealed up around the cable using a sealant to prevent drafts.

To prevent a fire or electrical shock hazard, do not attempt to open the housing while the
unit is exposed to rain, water or wet conditions. There are no user serviceable parts
inside. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.

NIGHT VISION:

The Cameras have built-in infra-red LEDs to allow you to view at night for 24hrs

surveillance. The LEDs will automatically activate at night and the picture viewed will
turn to black and white.

Please read before you start:

Always use discretion when installing CCTV surveillance equipment especially

when there is perceived policy. Enquire regarding local regulations applicable
to the lawful installation of video recording/surveillance. Third party consent
may be required.

drive unit fitted in the DVR.

1. Unlock the front hard drive drawer using the key supplied.

2. Pull the drawer’s lever to remove the drawer from the DVR.

3. Remove the x 4 screws on the base of the drawer which secure the hard drive
in place to remove the existing unit.

4. Replace with the new hard drive unit, refit and lock the drawer again.

5.2 Monitor Connection

To display video images from the cameras

on the monitor, the DVR’s video output
signal needs be transferred to your TV set

“VIDEO OUT” of the DVR system using the
supplied cable. Connect the BNC (male) end
to the DVR and the RCA (male) end to the
monitor end.

5.3 Camera Installation and Connection

Before drilling holes through walls check for hidden electricity cables and water pipes.

The use of a cable/pipe detector is advisable. When installing the cameras, it is advisable
to use cable conduit to protect any video/power extension cables from being exposed
externally and to prevent/reduce the chances of the cables being tampered with.

Note: the extension cables for any camera can only be extended up to 30m in length due

to power loss.

5.3.1 Installation

1. Use the cameras main bracket to mark out the x 4 mounting holes and cable

connector’s entry hole on the chosen location of the wall (Fig. 1).

Drill 4 x 5mm holes for the mounting
bracket’s wall plugs and 1 x 20mm
hole for the Camera’s video and
power plugs to pass through the
wall.

Note: It is recommended to pass the

cable into the property as close to the
Camera as possible to reduce the
chances of any exposed cables being
tampered with. If you choose to run

the cable along the wall outside the
property, it is recommended to use cable conduit to hide the cable and reduce the
chances of it being tampered with.

2. Screw the post bracket to the main housing and tighten the nut until secure (Fig. 2).
Now pass the Cameras video/power lead through the main bracket and then secure
the lower part of the post on to the main bracket (Fig. 3).

Feed the video/power leads through the hole in the wall, starting with the largest
connector, and then mount the main bracket on to the wall using the fixing screws and
wall plugs.

the cables being tampered with.

5.3.2 Connection

Connect between “VIDEO IN” of your DVR and the “VIDEO OUT” of the camera(s) with

to a BNC type for connection to the DVR. Use the 5 way splitter cable assembly already
connected to the DVR’s power adaptor to power each camera (operating on 12VDC
voltage only).
