Pairing Button: For details, see “Pairing Cameras” on page 9. Antenna Jack ATTENTION - This camera includes an Auto Mechanical IR Cut Filter. When the camera changes between Day/Night viewing modes, an audible clicking noise may be heard from the camera. This clicking is normal and indicates that the camera filter is working. Installing the Camera 4. Installing the Camera Camera is suitable for outdoor installation. Installation in a sheltered location is recommended. For example, install under shelter protected from the elements, such as beneath roof eaves. The diagram to the right shows an example of an ideal location for outdoor placement. 4.1 Installation Warnings • Aim the camera to optimize the viewing area: select a location that provides a clear view of the area you want to monitor, that is free from dust, and that is not facing a strong light source or direct sunlight. • Avoid installing the camera where there are thick walls or obstructions between the camera and the receiver. • Avoid installing in a location which requires the wireless signal to pass through cement, concrete, and metal structures. This will reduce the range of transmission. For details, see “Appendix B: Frequently Asked Questions” on page 11. • Select a location for the camera that has an ambient temperature between 14°F~122°F (-10°C~50°C) • Not intended for submersion in water. For outdoor use, installation in a sheltered location is recommended. Installing the Camera 4.2 Mounting Positions You may mount your camera on a wall, ceiling, or counter. See the images below for recommended configurations of the camera stand and antenna. Wall Ceiling Counter NOTE: For ceiling installation, position the antenna as high as the ceiling allows. See the "Ceiling" mounting position in the figure above. Before mounting the camera permanently, carefully plan where and how the camera will be positioned and where you will route the cable that connects the camera to the power adapter. Verify the camera’s performance by observing the image on a monitor when the camera is positioned where it will be permanently installed. 4.3 To Install the Camera Use the included mounting screws to mount the camera to the mounting surface: • Mark the positions of the screw holes on the mounting surface. • Drill holes and insert the drywall plugs (included) as needed. • Firmly attach the camera to the mounting surface using the included screws. NOTE: If you are running the power cable through the mounting surface, connect power before firmly attaching the camera to the mounting surface. NOTE: If you are running the power cable along the mounting surface, you need to run the power connector cable through the cable notch on the camera base before firmly attaching the camera to the mounting surface. Cable Notch Installing the Camera Loosen the thumbscrews (1, 2) and the adjustment ring (3) by turning them counter clockwise. Adjust the angle of the camera until the desired view is set. Tighten the thumbscrews and the adjustment ring to secure the camera’s position. Connect the power cable from the camera to the weatherproof power connector. Plug the power adapter into a power outlet or surge protector. NOTE: Power cables are only weatherproof when fully inserted at the connection point. Power cables may not be submerged in water. Remove protective film from the camera lens to uncover the microphone. The protective film may prevent the microphone from working if not removed. Connecting to a DVR 5. Connecting to a DVR Before powering on the receiver, make sure to first connect and power on the camera. This will ensure a proper connection. Connect the BNC video cable from the receiver to the video input on your DVR. Connect the RCA audio cable from the receiver to the corresponding audio input. The audio input number or name should match the video input where you connect the BNC cable (e.g. Video Input 1 and Audio Input 1). Connect the power cable to the power port on the receiver and plug it into a power outlet or surge protector. Place the receiver where it will have clear reception to your camera1. NOTE: If your camera is out of range, the pairing status LED will flash on and off rapidly. OPTIONAL: Use the double-sided tape to secure the receiver to a surface (e.g. wall). 1. Avoid installing in a location which requires the wireless signal to pass through cement, concrete, and metal structures. This will reduce the range of transmission. Connecting to a TV 6. Connecting to a TV Connect the included BNC-to-RCA adapter to the BNC connector on the receiver. Connect the other end of the BNC-to-RCA adapter to the RCA video input on your television. Connect the RCA audio connector from the receiver to the audio input on your television. Connect the power cable to the power port on the receiver and plug it into a power outlet or surge protector. Power on your television and select the input that the receiver is connected to. Place the receiver where it will have clear reception to your camera1. 1. Avoid installing in a location which requires the wireless signal to pass through cement, concrete, and metal structures. This will reduce the range of transmission. Pairing Cameras 7. Pairing Cameras IMPORTANT The camera and the receiver have already been paired out of the box, which means that they are exclusively communicating with each other.

Appendix B: Frequently Asked Questions 9.1 Wired vs. Wireless Cameras A wired camera has a video cable that transmits the video signal from the camera to a recording or viewing device. A wireless camera does not use a video cable. Instead, it wirelessly transmits the video signal to a wireless receiver that is connected to your DVR. Wireless cameras do not require video cabling to be run between the camera and the DVR, which reduces installation time and cost. 9.2 Does a wireless camera require power? Yes. Wireless cameras require two power sources: one connected to the camera, and the other to the receiver. The term "wireless" refers to the lack of a video cable between the camera and the receiver. 9.3 How far can a wireless camera transmit a video signal? In an open field (with line of sight), a typical wireless camera has a range between 250 - 500 feet. 'Line-of-sight' means that there are no obstructions between the camera and receiver. Obstructions include walls, buildings, trees, and certain electronic devices. Materials containing moisture (for example, leaves) may also act as an obstruction. Cubical walls, drywall, glass, and windows generally do not degrade wireless signal strength. In a closed environment—such as the interior of a house—the wireless camera range is between 100 - 165 feet. The signal range varies depending on the type of building materials or objects the wireless signal must pass through. The signal range also depends on whether there are competing signals using the same frequency as the camera. For example, signals from cordless phones or routers may affect signal strength. Adaptive Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS) technology featured in the latest Lorex models greatly reduce signal interference. Range Limiting Factors1 Reflection The signal reflects back Scattering The signal scatters back into multiple new signals Refraction The signal bends as it travels through an object (e.g. glass window) Diffraction The signal changes direction as it passes around an object Attenuation The signal strength weakens as it passes through an object 1Source: Xirrus (2010). "Wi-Fi Range Dynamics". Retrieved online at http://xirrus.gcsmarket.com/pdfs/Xirrus_Wi-Fi_Range.pdf 11 Appendix B: Frequently Asked Questions Signal Reduction Through Materials Signal strength decreases as it passes through different types of material. The table below shows how signals become reduced when passing through different materials: Material Signal Reduction (%) Plaster & Wood 10 - 30% Brick 30 - 50% Concrete Cinder Blocks 50 - 70% Metal & Metal Cladding 70 - 90% NOTE: Signals that must pass through wet or moist materials (e.g. shrubs and trees) may be significantly reduced. The stronger the signal strength, the higher the video frame rate. The lower the signal strength, the lower the video frame rate. Full signal strength (high frame rate) Low signal strength (low frame rate) 9.4 Are digital wireless camera signals secure? Yes. Lorex digital wireless products feature a wireless transmission method called Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS). This type of signal is highly resistant to eavesdropping as it generates a channel hopping sequence using an algorithm generated by the receiver, which only the camera can follow through the "pairing" function. Pairing is an electronic handshake between digital wireless devices. Digital wireless cameras can only be paired to one receiver. This is to prevent interception by third parties, and prevents any other device from picking up the signal—this also means that you cannot pair one camera to multiple receivers. 9.5 How many frames per second should I expect from a digital wireless camera? Current Lorex digital wireless cameras offer 10 - 30 FPS (Frames Per Second) performance. Actual frame rate depends mainly on signal strength (see the chart in section above). For details on supported resolutions and frame rates for this model, see “Appendix A: System Specifications” on page 10. 9.6 How many wireless cameras can I install? It is recommended to install a maximum of 4 wireless cameras per system (4 receivers and 4 cameras). Minimum space between receivers should be 4 inches / 10cm and minimum space between cameras should be 6.5ft / 2m to minimize potential signal strength degradation. 12 Appendix C: Troubleshooting 10. Appendix C: Troubleshooting If you have problems with your system, there is often a quick and simple solution. Please try the following: Problem Solution There is no picture from the camera(s) • Make sure that the camera is plugged into a power outlet and that the power adapter is plugged in properly. • Make sure receiver is plugged into a power outlet. • Move the camera closer to the receiver. • Make sure BNC video output cable is connected to your DVR or television. • If you are viewing your camera(s) using a TV, make sure you have the correct input selected. There is no audio from the camera(s) • Make sure the RCA audio output cable is connected to your DVR or television audio input. • Make sure audio recording is enabled on your DVR. See your DVR manual for further instruction. • Make sure to remove the protective film from the camera lens. The microphone is located on the front of the camera and will not work properly if the protective film is left on. The picture is dropping • Move the camera closer to the receiver. • Try repositioning the camera, receiver, or both to improve the reception. The picture is or has become choppy • The picture may become choppy when experiencing a lower frame rate (e.g. 6 frames per second vs. a higher 20 frames per second). • Try moving the camera closer to the receiver. • Remove obstructions between the receiver and camera. The picture is white • "Washout" or "white wash" can occur when a strong light source is pointed at the camera lens. The camera lens is not harmed during a white wash. • Do not point your camera towards a bright light source. The picture is too dark • If using during the day, the camera may not be getting enough light. Reconsider the position of your camera. The picture is too bright • If using during the day, the camera may be getting too much light. Reconsider the position of your camera. Night vision is not working • Night vision activates when light levels drop. The area may have too much light. Bright spot in video when viewing camera at night • Night vision reflects when pointing a camera at a window. Move the camera to a different location. 13 Appendix D: Extending Wireless Signal Range 11. Appendix D: Extending Wireless Signal Range DISCLAIMER: Certain accessories are not available in all markets. There are several ways to boost your wireless signal as well as options to help you extend the range of the wireless signal. Clear Line-of-Sight You should always try to ensure there is a clear line-of-sight between the camera and the receiver. Clear line of sight Receiver Extending Your Wireless Signal Even with a clear line-of-sight between your camera(s) and your receiver(s), you may experience a lower video frame rate simply due to the distance between your wireless devices. Accessory antennas are available that can help extend the range of your wireless signal. 14 Appendix D: Extending Wireless Signal Range 2.4 GHZ Directional Wireless Panel Antenna Use the 2.4GHz Directional Wireless Panel Antenna (model #: ACCANTD9) to focus a wireless signal onto the camera in order to increase the range of transmission (clear line-of-sight between the camera and the antenna is required). A 20ft extension cable is included to help to properly position the antenna. Directional Wireless Panel Antenna Scenario 1: Single Receiver Installation Attach a directional antenna to the camera and/or the receiver. It is recommended to attach the antenna to the receiver and place it in a location that has clear line-of-sight to the camera. Ensure that the directional antenna is pointing toward the other antenna. For example, if the directional antenna is connected to your receiver, the directional antenna should point at the camera (see figure above). During the installation, check the reception on your DVR. Scenario 2: Multiple Camera / Receiver Installation If you are using multiple wireless cameras and receivers in your installation, attach directional antennas to the camera(s) and receiver(s) that are farthest away from each other. Follow these guidelines to increase the signal strength between your cameras and receivers: • Point directional antennas towards the receiver for each camera. • Keep as much space as possible between each receiver. • Keep as much space as possible between directional antennas if using more than one. • Minimize the amount of obstructions (e.g. walls or trees) between the antennas and receivers. • During the installation, check the reception of each camera on your DVR.
