Your Wireless Motion Activated Camera consists of a Color Video Camera with

built-in 2.4 GHz transmitter. It is activated by its built-in Motion Sensor so that

when someone approaches your home, the camera turns on and also turns on

the attached floodlights to light up the area that the camera sees (bulbs not

included). The camera transmits its picture and sound via a built-in 2.4 GHz

transmitter, to a Video Receiver (sold separately) which you connect to a TV

anywhere in your home. The Camera sends the wireless signals (even through

walls, up to 100 ft.). The Video Receiver converts the signals back to video and

audio signals and feeds them through a cable to your TV's COAX or A/V input

jacks.

You can purchase additional Motion Activated Cameras (up to 4) so you can

have a multiple camera system. You can then set all cameras to the same

channel as the receiver and turn the cameras on and off remotely so as to only

ever have one camera turned on at a time, and displayed on your TV.

Referring to the diagram below:

You can install the motion activated camera in a wall box that is power at all

times or in a wall box that is controlled by a wall switch, but if it is powered

from a wall switch, make sure you leave the switch on at all times. Turning the

switch off will completely disable the motion activated camera.

Your motion activated camera turns on whenever someone approaches your

home and also turns on the connected floodlights to light up the area that the

camera sees. The camera transmits its picture and sound to a 2.4 GHz

underside of the motion activated camera to reveal the controls below.

1. Connect a set of Audio/Video cables to the

A/V OUT jacks on the VR31A Video

Receiver. Connect the other end to your TV

(use Yellow for video, and either L or R

channel for audio). Note, VR36A receivers

do not have an audio output.

2. Plug the Video Receiver's Power Supply jack

into the Video Receiver and plug the power

supply into a 120 volt wall outlet.

3. Turn the Video Receiver's power switch (on

side of unit) on.

4. Set the channel switch to the same letter as you set on the camera, A, B, C,

or D.

5. Position the Video Receiver in a convenient location such as on top of the TV

and orient the antenna so that the flat side points in the direction where you

set up the Camera.

The Wireless Motion Activated Camera usually works best with the flat faces of

the antennas on the Camera and Receiver unit facing each other (see diagram

below). Sometimes, however, reflections and other effects in the home may

affect the signal so that some adjustment of either the Sender or Receiver

antenna may be necessary to get the best the signal.

If you do not see a picture on your TVIf you do not see a picture on your TV

If you do not see a picture on your TV::

Check that the receiver and the camera are on the same letter channel (A, B,

C, or D). The channel switch on the camera is located under the lid on the

bottom of the unit. Make sure you close the lid and screw it tightly shut

afterwards.

There is a power light on the front of the receiver. Check that the power switch

on the side of the receiver is ON.

Verify that your connections to the TV are correct. If you are using the RCA

jacks, make sure you are using the appropriate input mode for your TV, try

pressing the A-B button or Video button on your TV's remote to change the

input mode (consult your TV's owner's manual, if necessary). If you are using

the Coax cable (VR31A receiver only), verify that the Receiver and the TV are

on the same channel (3 or 4).

If you connected the Receiver to a VCR and then connected the VCR to your TV,

you might need to turn the VCR OFF to see the camera picture on your TV. Or

you might need to turn the VCR on, AND set it to record the picture from the

camera, in order to see the picture on your TV. Or you might need to press the

A-B button on your VCR's remote control. Consult your VCR's owner's manual

from more information.

If you get a picture but the quality is poor:If you get a picture but the quality is poor:

If you get a picture but the quality is poor:

Take a look at what the video signal is passing through or near to get to the

receiver. Metal objects and electromagnetic fields can distort the signal. Try to

keep the receiver as far away from other devices as the RCA or Coax cables

allow. In most cases, relocating the transmitter or receiver a few feet is enough

to avoid the source of interference.

Try unplugging/turning off any electromagnetic interference producing devices,

such as a microwave oven, baby monitor, computer, wireless LAN, wireless

speakers, cordless phone, cell phone, etc.

Other 2.4 GHz devices can distort the camera's picture and/or cause buzzing

in the audio. If you are experiencing interference between X10 cameras or

Video Senders and some other equipment that uses 2.4 GHz, you might want

to check the other device's owner's manual for the frequencies of each channel

that it uses. X10 cameras and Video Senders use the following frequencies:

Channel A: 2.411 GHz, Chan B: 2.434 GHz, Chan C: 2.453 GHz, Chan D:

2.473 GHz We recommend using a frequency on the other device that is

farthest from channel A or D, depending on which side of the band the other

device is transmitting. Otherwise you will need to discontinue use of the device

while using our video equipment.

If you are having difficulty turning the camera on/off remotely:

Try plugging the transceiver (the module with the antenna) into a different AC

outlet.

How do you focus the camera?How do you focus the camera?

How do you focus the camera?

The motion activated camera is shipped preset to be in focus for normal use,

but if you want to change the focus you can remove the clear plastic cover and

rotate the inner portion of the lens. It might be a bit tight. Try turning it

counterclockwise first. If you turn it clockwise do not force or over tighten it.

Replace the clear plastic cover to keep the rain out.

If the motion sensor doesn't see you:

Check the dusk control setting to see if it is set to detect motion at all times or

only at night. Adjust if necessary.

Check that you are walking across the path of the sensor. It is more sensitive in

this direction than if you walk towards it.
