Overview
Congratulations on your purchase of this additional camera for the ADW-400
system! Adding more cameras to your ADW-400 system is a great way to achieve
additional functionality and value from the ADW-400 receiver.
If you don’t already have an ADW-400 Receiver, then you won’t be able to use
this camera. Talk to the retailer you purchased this camera from - they’ll probably
have them in stock. The camera and receiver are designed very much to operate as
mutually dependent units, and can’t be used with other cameras/receivers.
Note: This manual details the full function of the ADW-400 system, not just the
camera included in this package. We’ve reproduced all the information in the
original manual to save you the time and trouble of hunting down the old one.
Here’s a quick rundown on some of the great features the ADW-400 Camera and
Receiver have to offer:
Digital Wireless Technology
No more interference! Unlike older analog wireless technologies which suffer
greatly from signal distortion and interference, digital wireless technology provides
clean, crisp images, even in environments with other wireless devices active.
Up to four channels (Quad View)
Unlike older wireless systems which require a separate wireless receiver for each
camera, the ADW-400 receiver is capable of receiving and displaying up to four
cameras at once!
Night Vision
With twenty-four infrared LEDs built into the camera, the ADW-400 can see up
to 8m/26ft even in complete darkness, providing you with a 24 hour security
solution.
SD Card Recording
The ADW-400 Receiver is also a stand-alone video recorder, which saves video
directly to SD cards. It will support SD cards up to 32GB, giving you a hassle-free
Note: for the best results, always use high-speed, high-quality SD cards which
conform to either the SD or SDHC standards. Many lower quality SD cards with
slower read/write speeds will not produce desirable results, as they cannot ‘keep
up’ with the video being captured by the ADW-400.

Layout of Camera
Lens: The business end of the camera. For a reliable and clear image, ensure that
the lens stays clean and unobstructed. To clean, use a dedicated lens cleaning
solution and cloth, available from all good photography stores.
Infrared LEDs: These give the camera its limited night vision capabilities. These
LEDs act like a floodlight, but use light that human eyes cannot see, but which the
camera can.
Stand: This stand can be pivoted to face any direction. Additionally, it can be
attached to the camera via the screw thread on the rear of the camera, allowing
for attachment high on a wall or to a ceiling.
Antenna: Used to transmit the wireless signal to the receiver. For the best results,
the antenna should be as unobstructed as possible - ideally having a clear line of
sight to the receiver.

ARM: Turns the motion detection based recording functions on or off. When the
receiver is armed, it will automatically switch to QUAD view. You can subsequently
exit QUAD view without disarming the receiver by pressing the QUAD button. For
more information about recording and recording modes, see page 9.

Arrows / Playback Controls: Used to navigate whilst in the menu system. In live
viewing mode, UP is a shortcut to RECORD. In playback mode, DOWN is a shortcut
to STOP, whilst LEFT and RIGHT are REWIND and FAST-FORWARD respectively.
NOTE: The Receiver is not a part of this package. To use the ADW-400 camera,
you’ll need to have the ADW-400 receiver already. The camera is not compatible
with any other receiver or DVR system - they are designed to operate as one
cohesive unit. If you’ve purchased this camera but don’t have a receiver, ask the
retailer you purchased this camera from about getting the dedicated receiver.
