• The cameras included with your monitor are weatherproof and have an IP65
weather rating. Water can be sprayed on them and they will still work; however,
the cameras cannot be submerged underwater.
• Although the cameras can be exposed directly to the rain, it is recommended
that, if they are used outdoors, they be mounted under some type of cover like
a patio overhang or eave. As rainwater drops start to dry on the camera glass,
it can create spots that will reflect the light from the infrared LEDs used for night
vision, thus causing lower quality video.
• Also, as dust, grime, and cobwebs accumulate on the camera glass, they can
reflect light from the infrared LED and might lower video quality. Periodically,
clean the lens glass with a soft cloth.
General Placement Considerations
Consider the following when placing the camera:
• Clear line of sight video transmission distance is up to 150ms.
- Walls, especially brick and concrete, shorten the transmission distance.
- Placement next to windows allows better transmission.
• Avoid having a direct light source in view of the camera. This includes street
lights, ceiling or floor lamps, spotlights in the driveway, etc.
• The cameras are equipped with built-in infra-red LEDs so you can use night
vision for 24-hour surveillance. The LEDs automatically activate at night and the
picture viewed turns to black and white. The night viewing range is up to 12ms.
Avoid pointing the camera lens directly at clear glass; the night vision LEDs will
cause a blurred image.
• Optimized motion detection range is up to 12ms. The farther away an object is,
the less accurate the motion detection.
• Avoid pointing the camera directly at any bushes, tree branches, or moving
objects that might naturally move due to winds. Otherwise, the motion detection
feature may record unnecessarily.
• Out of Range displays when the monitor and camera are too far apart.
Reposition the equipment.
• A Low Battery icon displays when you need to recharge the battery.
INSTALLATION

Installing the Monitor
Out of the box, your monitor has enough power to be used when you place and
install the cameras. You can check the camera placement and angle before you
physically screw the camera stands into place.
After you have installed the cameras and set up the monitor, plug the DC 5V AC
adaptor power output cable into the 5V POWER input of the cradle or monitor. Plug
the power plug into a wall outlet or surge protector.
If you are powering the monitor through the cradle, insert the monitor into the cradle
at this point. Press firmly to ensure a good connection. The LED on the side panel
turns red to indicate charging is in progress. The
icon displays.
Installing the Camera
You can mount the camera with the stand on the bottom (for a flat surface such
as a tabletop), on the side (for a wall), or on the top (for the ceiling). When you are
positioning the camera, you might want to bring the monitor along; it’s much easier
to get the camera into the right position when you have the monitor handy.
The following tools are required:
• Electric Drill
• 5mm Drill Bit
• No. 2 Phillips Screwdriver
Mount the Camera Base
1. Hold the base of the camera stand where you want to mount it and mark the
location of the screw holes.
2. Drill holes using the 5mm drill bit.
3. Insert anchors.
4. Use the included screws to attach the base to the wall or ceiling. You can also
screw the base into a flat surface such as a tabletop if needed.
Before attaching the camera, tug gently on the stand to make sure it is securely in
place.
8
Attach the Camera
1. For each camera, attach the camera bracket to the mounting screw. You can
attach the stand to the top or the bottom of the camera as needed. Tighten it a
few turns, then turn the camera to face the direction you want.
2. Tighten the camera brace up against the camera to secure it into place.
3. Unlock the mounting post by turning the wingnut a few turns to the left.
4. Set the mounting post to the correct angle, then tighten the wingnut until the post
is locked into place.
5. Attach the antenna to the rear of the camera.

Power Up the Monitor
Power Up the Camera
1. Connect one end of a DC 9V AC adaptor to the camera’s power pigtail and plug
the other end into a 240 volt AC (standard indoor) power outlet.
2. Cameras provided in the kit are already paired to the monitor. Once they are
powered up, the monitor displays images from that camera.
Adjust the camera viewing position, if needed.

the picture quality is poor Clean the camera lens.
a white image appears at night The camera’s infra-red LED shines due to the
invisible light that reflects off surfaces such as
glass, causing white light. Place the camera
on the other side of windows with the lens side
flush against the surface to improve the night
vision, or place the camera in a well-lit area.
Night Vision
This camera has built-in IR LEDs, which provides the camera with the ability to view
images in no/low light conditions. It is important to use the provided power adaptor
(and not the batteries) when using the camera for prolonged periods in low light
conditions.
