Congratulations! You have purchased X10’s premier video
surveillance solution. The Sentinel Pan/Tilt/Zoom Camera
has superior image quality, a high powered zoom, and pan
and tilt motion. You can operate the camera through walls
using the supplied remote control.
Introduction ......................................................................... 2
It comes with a weather resistant dome for outdoor
mounting under an eve, on your patio, or deck, for
example.
Remote Control Features .................................................. 15
The camera uses X10’s 900 Megahertz wireless technology
to transmit live video through walls to a television up to
100 feet away. If you prefer a secure video connection, you
can use a video cable to connect the camera directly to your
TV.
The camera is also designed so that you can combine
multiple cameras to provide comprehensive coverage of
your home or business. Use the remote control to switch
between cameras so that you don’t miss anything that goes

BASIC CAMERA SETUP
Your Sentinel Camera is ready to go out of the box! Follow these
steps for a quick setup of your new camera.
Unpack these items.
First you’ll set up and test the camera before you install the camera
into the dome. Make sure you read this entire manual first in case you
want to change a setting on the base of the camera before installing it
in the dome.
Connect the camera to power.
You should have: the camera and its power supply; the camera
remote; the camera mounting bracket, a weather resistant dome, and
the screws to install the bracket. A wireless video receiver, and it’s
video cable and power supply (shown above but sold separately) is
also required if you want to use the camera wirelessly.
Plug the camera’s power supply into a standard wall outlet. Plug the
other end into the camera. Remove the protective cover from the
camera’s lens.

Once the camera and receiver are in place, adjust their antennas so
that they face each other. The side of the camera’s antenna with the
dot on it should face the side of the receiver’s antenna marked with
four squares. Adjust the positions to improve the picture on your TV.

Iris Settings
Backlight Compensation
Iris settings control the amount of light let into the Sentinel camera.
Changing these settings affect how bright your picture will be, and how the
camera reacts to changes in lighting conditions. Your options are:
Backlight compensation settings affect how the camera adjusts for light
sources behind the camera’s view or focus. You can use this to adjust for
the silhouette effect you might get when looking at things with light behind
them.
·
PEAK: This setting controls the reaction of the automatic iris
adjustment in relation to the average light level in the picture. A higher
level of peak sets the camera so that the automatic light controls adjust
to a higher average light level.
·
BLC: Turns Backlight Compensation On or Off. Turning BLC On will
brighten the part of the picture that is being silhouetted, but will also
brighten the background.
·
ALC: Automatic Light Control determines whether the camera should
adjust for light differences automatically or manually. If you set this to
manual, you can set the level of lighting control that will be used.
·
AREA: If BLC is on, the AREA setting allows you to set the sensitivity
separately for different parts of the camera’s field of view. The default
setting only turns on BLC in the center of the camera’s viewing field.
·
AES: (Automatic Exposure Setting) selects whether to use automatic or
manual exposure settings, how long the exposure should be. This affects
how fast the camera “sees” an image – a long exposure time lets more
light in and could give you a clearer picture, but it will mean that motion
is harder to see.
·
SENS: Adjusts the sensitivity of the Backlight Compensation. Low
means that the camera responds less to backlit conditions, higher
settings means that compensation turns on more quickly.
Use the Up and Down arrows to
select IRIS (use the Left Arrow
(Dim) to back out of the menu). With
IRIS selected, when you press the
Right arrow button the screen above
right is displayed.
Use the up and Down arrows (On

Freeze, Automatic Gain Control & Sensitivity
Color Settings
The settings for Automatic Gain Control (AGC) affect the brightness and
picture levels of the video produced by the camera. AGC amplifies existing
video to help the camera reproduce a video signal at low light levels.
Sensitivity controls adjust how the camera works in low light conditions.
The options in the color settings menu control the appearance of the video
picture you get from the camera.
·
ATW: Adjusts the settings for Auto Trace White Balance (ATW). ATW
automatically adjusts the picture to accurately show white in response to
varying light conditions. Change the setting towards R (red) or B (blue)
to tell the ATW how to adjust for your specific light conditions more
accurately.
·
FREEZE: Freezes the Field or the Frame in a still mode until you select
Off, or until you move the camera with the remote control.
·
AGC Levels: Selects the base level of gain control used when automatic
gain control is on.
·
SENS: Changing the sensitivity changes how the camera compensates
for low light. The higher the setting is called “Starlight” Mode (square
cursor to the right). In this mode the camera lets more light in when in
the dark, and a better picture results.
AWB: Auto White Balance works with ATW to maintain accurate levels
of white in the video from the camera. Change the setting towards R
(red) or B (blue) to tell the AWB how to adjust for your specific light
conditions more accurately.
·
R Gain: Adjusts the saturation of red in the video produced by the
camera. Set this to higher levels to correct for low levels of red in your
picture, or vice versa.
·
B Gain: Adjusts the saturation of red in the video produced by the
camera. Set this to higher levels to correct for low levels of blue in your
picture, or vice versa.

any distance away, or a short focal length (NEAR) if you are using
the camera only to view objects relatively close. In Manual mode the
camera will set focus automatically after a zoom in or out. If you select

1. Select the appropriate video input on your TV. Usually you can select
the input mode by pressing the VIDEO or INPUT button on the remote
control. Or you might have to change the TV to Channel 0 or 2, and
then use Channel Down to change video inputs. See your TV’s owner’s
manual if you still aren’t sure how to change the video source.
1. Press the C1 button. This makes sure that your camera is selected for
control. Try moving the camera or zooming to see if the problem is
fixed.
2. Make sure your camera is connected to power and turned on. Press C1
on the remote to turn it on.
3. Follow the setup instructions again (page 13 and 14), and check all of
the connections you make.
2. Check the batteries. If the C1 button doesn’t light up when you press
it, you may have put the batteries in incorrectly, or the batteries you
used may be dead. Take the batteries out and make sure you put them in
according to the diagram inside the remote. If it still doesn’t work, try
new batteries.
If Autofocus doesn’t work correctly:
If the picture on your TV isn’t clear (wireless connection):
Try different positions for the antennas on the Camera and Receiver. Normally
they should point at each other. Sometimes, due to reflections, you might get
a better picture with the Receiver’s antenna pointing to the ceiling.
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 cables allow. In
most cases, relocating the Camera 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 baby monitor, computer, wireless speakers, cordless phone,
etc. Other 900 MHz devices can distort the Camera’s picture. If you are
experiencing interference between X10 Cameras and some other equipment
that uses 900 MHz, check the other device’s owner’s manual for the frequencies
of each channel that it uses. X10 cameras use 921MHz. We recommend using
a frequency on the other device that is farthest from 921MHz. Otherwise you
will need to discontinue use of the device while using the Cameras.
AP
The Sentinel Camera’s auto focus can’t work correctly if the protective lens
cap is on. Remove the protective lens cap and make sure the lens is clean.
Try zooming out all the way. The camera should automatically refocus
correctly.
If the camera label (like “Camera A1”) is displayed on your TV:
You can turn off the onscreen label easily. Press and hold Setup on the
Sentinel remote control until the green light stays on. Then, press Sweep
(0), and Setup again. This will turn off the label. Repeat these same steps to
turn the label on again.
