moUnt the camera stand
general gUidelines
The Uniden Guardian GC45 and GC45W cameras are weatherproof and have an
IP66 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.
Placement considerations
Consider the following when placing cameras:
•
The clearest line-of-sight between the camera and monitor is best.
— Walls, especially brick and concrete, shorten the transmission distance.
— Placement next to windows allows better transmission.
•
•
Optimized motion detection range is 6 - 18 feet for the GC45 camera. The
farther away an object is, the less accurate the motion detection.
Avoid having a direct light source in the view of the camera, including street
lights, ceiling or floor lamps, spotlights in the driveway, etc.

•
Rainfall, pool water ripples/reflections, tree/shrub leaves blowing in the wind
- and the shadows they create - can generate motion detection false alarms.
You can mount the camera with the stand on the bottom (on a wall or table-
top) or on the top (on the ceiling). When you are positioning the camera, you
might want to bring the receiver along; it’s much easier to get the camera into
the right position when you have the display handy.
1. Hold the base of the camera stand where you want to mount it and mark
the location of the screw holes.
2. Use the included screws and anchors to attach the base to the wall or
ceiling.
attach the camera
Before attaching the camera, tug gently on the stand to make sure it is securely
in place.
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 to the left a few turns.
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.

Pairing cameras
Your receiver supports a total of four active cameras at a time. When you add
a camera, you have to pair it to the receiver (that is, you have “introduce” the
camera and receiver so they can communicate).
some things to knoW aBoUt Pairing cameras
•
If a camera is already assigned to the selected channel, the receiver
overwrites that camera link with the new one.
•
Only pair one camera at a time! The receiver links to the first camera it
detects. If two or more cameras are in pairing mode, you can’t control which
camera the receiver will detect first.
Pair camera
1. From the Pairing Camera screen (refer to the G455/G755 Owner’s Manual),
tap the camera image you want to pair. A processing icon displays for a 60
second countdown.
2. During the 60 second countdown, quickly press and release the Pairing
button on that camera’s power cord (refer to the G455/G755 Owner’s
Manual).
3. The system automatically adjusts the Camera On screen accordingly.
If you have any trouble, consult the table on page 10.
Use this Pairing Camera procedure to move a camera from one channel
to a different channel.
