Installing the Camera Hood

To fit the Camera Hood use a small Philips Head screwdriver to remove the two screws from the top mounting block. Once these are removed, place the hood on top of the camera casing with the slots over the screw holes in the casing. Place the mounting block on top of the hood, then using the screwdriver screw the two screws back into the casing until the hood is firmly secured.

Replacing or Changing the Lens

Replacing or Changing the Lens:

First, make sure the camera hood has been removed, then follow these steps.

(A) Unscrew the front housing of the camera in an anti-clockwise direction

(B) Remove the rubber ring around the camera lens

taking care of the wires that go from the underside of the circuit board into the camera

(D) Unscrew the lens in a counter-clockwise direction and remove it completely

(E) Once the lens is removed, carefully screw the replacement lens (not included) in

a clockwise direction into the lens socket and adjust it for correct focus

(F) When the focus is correct, refit all of the components you have just removed

in reverse order. Reverse this procedure if you wish to refit the Standard lens

Note: The Maxi Day/Night Color Camera will automatically change to a black & white

image using the Infra-Red LEDs when available light is too low to support a clea color picture.

Important Information about this product

Best Results are achieved when the camera is looking down on the subject area.

The hood can be used to stop sunlight entering the lens and causing the picture to wash out

during bright daylight.

Please test all devices before final installation as it is far easier to rectify problems at this stage.

To avoid the risk of damage to your product, use only the supplied power adaptors.

Areas with a bright background may caused degradation of the image. If possible position

your camera so that it doesn’t point towards a very bright light source.

Do not cut the DC power cable of the Camera to fit with another power source.

This may result in damage to the Camera & any unauthorised modifications will void

your warranty.

Tips for using your Swann Security camera

1. Deterrence is the best and most cost effective security method for:

- preventing criminal activity before it occurs is preferable to, and cheaper than, cleaning up after it occurs

- the Swann Maxi Day/Night Camera is an example of cost effective security utilising the 'art of deterrence' to outsmart thieves and criminals

2. Always place cameras high enough that they can't be closely inspected or easily accessed.

3. Position cameras and dummies where they can be easily seen for maximum deterrence.

4. Position a monitor where it can be seen but not touched.

5. If you have more than one camera use a monitor with channel switching function, a Quad Processor or DVR with multiple views to show potential offenders the level of coverage you have protecting your site.

6. Add extra Swann dummy cameras to give the impression of heightened security.

7. Purchase a Swann DVR to monitor and record activity on your cameras. Depending on the settings used, DVRs can record for months.

8. Position a VCR with tapes or boxes close to your monitor for added effect,

implying there is a security video recorder even if there isn't one.
