INSTALLATION Select a location for the camera that provides a clear view of the area you want to monitor, is free from dust, and is not in line-of- sight with a strong light source or in direct sunlight. Desk Mounting the Camera You can place the camera on a desk or any level surface. Select a location that is near AC outlet within the reach of the AC adapter cord. Wall Mounting the Camera To wall mount the camera, test the reception of the video monitor before installing to the wall. Then drive a screw (not supplied) on the wall letting the head extends 5 mm (3/16 inch) from the wall. Hang the camera and make sure it is securely mounted. Adjust the camera to a best viewing angle. Setting Up Your Wireless Baby Monitor Have a person hold the camera against the wall at the selected mounting area while another person moves the monitor to various locations throughout the house to check reception. li interference or other problems develop, refer to "Troubleshooting“ in page x. You may need to select a dillerent location in the room for mounting the camera. The following steps show you how to set up the Wireless Baby Monitor: 1. Set the camera and monitor to the same channel (1 , 2, 3 or 4) using CHANNEL 1 2 3 4 on the back of the camera and CH. 1 2 3 4 on the back of the monitort 2. Plug the small AC adapter cord into the 12V DC socket on the back of the camera. 3. Plug the AC adapter into a standard wall outlet 4. Slide the OFF/ON switch on the right side of the camera to ON. The power indicator lights. 5. Adjust the angle and focus of the camera lens for the best view. 6. Position the camera antenna so it points to the monitor antenna. 10. 11. 12. Plug the large AC adapter cord into the Dc 13.5V jack on the back ol the monitor. Plug the AC adapter into a standard wall outlet. Rotate the monitor's VOLUME/OFFIMAX clockwise to turn on the monitor. Adiust VOLUME/OFF/MAX to a comfortable listening level. Adjust the video image using V-HOLD(verticaI hold), CONTRAST and BRIGHTNESS on the right side of the monitor. Locate and orient the antennas on both the camera and monitor according to "Orienting Antennas for Optimal Perlormance" In page X. Orienting Antennas for Optimal Performance The Wireless Baby Monitor broadcasts its high-quality audio and video using directional antennas which must be oriented in a certain configurations for best results. The 2.4 GHz antennas have been designed to pivot and have limited rotation in either clockwise or counterclockwise directions. Warning: See instructions shown below for rotating antennas. Flotating antennas beyond the specified range will result in permanent damage to both antennas and the mechanical stopi Antenna does not rotate freely 360 degrees. 10 Maximum clockwise rotation of A/V antenna shown, in most situations, the antennas’ tlat pitted face on both the camera and monitor should lace toward one anothert Since all rooms are different, for optimal reception, additional slight pivots or rotations might be necessary. If the camera and monitor are less than 10 leet apart, keep the antennas flat in their casingsr Special Auto-Sequence Function and Setting There is an auto-sequence switch on the back ol the monitor for setting up multiple cameras. Your Wireless Baby Monitor is factory preset for one camera/monitor set use. If you install just one camera/monitor set only, do not take off the caution label covered over the switch If you stalled more than one camera, then you need to take off the label to setup auto-sequence lunction. ' You can install up to tour cameras on lour dillerent channels to monitor a series at rooms tor maximum supervision of the house (or office). To activate the auto-sequence monitor function, set up the dip-switches as follows: 11 Disables Disables Disables Disables Displays channel channel channel channel at lour | display 2 display 3 display 4 display second intervals ON Enables Enables Enables nables isplays at nables channel channel channel name! 4 ight he 1 display 2 display Sdisplay ispiay eoond H1 2 3 4 marvels witch (but isahles 9 auto equence unction) Note: When you set the 4/5 dip switch to ON to disable the auto sequence function, you also need to slide all 1, 2, 3, 4 dip switches to OFF. If one or more of the 1, 2, 3, 4 dip-switches remains ON, the auto-sequence function will continue on these channels, even though the 4/B dip-switch is in the OFF position For example, it you have installed two cameras and their channels are set on CH 1 and (H 3, and you wish to monitor these two channels in sequence, you must first slide the 4/3 dip- switch to OFF to enable the auto-sequence function, then slide the 1 and 3 dip-switches to ON to activate channel 1 and 3 auto- sequence function. (See the following diagram.) if you wish to monitor these two channels at eight-second intervals. slide the 4/8 dip-switch to ON; to monitor these two channels at four- second intervals leave 4/6 dip-switch to OFF.

Slide dip-switches 1, 2, 3, 4 to OFF. 3. Slide the CH 1 2 3 4 switch to the same channel as that of camera Monitor to AN function The Wireless Baby Monitor system's monitor unit has audio/video outputs to transfer the picture and sound from the monitor screen to a TV for a large screen display.
