Wireless Receiver Installation  
Wireless Receiver Installation  
1. Connect the AV Cable to the back of the receiver. Connect the other end of the Cable to the  
Video IN (Yellow) and Audio IN (White) ports on the TV, VCR or other viewing monitor.  
2. Plug the Receiver power cable into the 9V POWER input. Plug the power cable into a wall outlet  
or surge protector.  
3. Place the receiver in a place that will have clear reception to your camera(s). Try to avoid placing  
the receiver near other 900MHz devices (such as older cordless phones, etc.).  
NOTE: The 900MHz signal passes easily through interior walls, and in most cases only a slight  
adjustment is needed to the Receiver to improve the reception. Do not force the antennas past their  
locked positions, or damage may occur to the Receiver or Camera.  
Camera Installation  
Before you install the camera*, carefully plan where and how it will be positioned, and where you will  
route the cable that connects the camera to the power adaptor or battery adaptor.  
Installation Warnings:  
Aim the Cameras to best optimize the viewing area: Select a location for the camera that provides  
a clear view of the area you want to monitor, which is free from dust, and is not in line-of-sight to  
a strong light source or direct sunlight.  
Avoid installing the cameras where there are thick walls, obstructions, or interference (i.e.  
transformers, microwave ovens or other electrical equipment) between the Cameras and the  
Receiver.  
Select a location for the camera that has an ambient temperature between 14°F~113°F  
(-10°C~45°C)  
Before starting permanent installation, have another person hold the camera for you while you  
verify its performance by observing the image on a monitor.  
Night Vision  
This camera includes IR LEDs, which provide the camera with the ability to view images in low light  
conditions. It is important to use the provided power adaptor (not the 9V DC Battery Adaptor) when using  
the camera for prolonged periods in low light conditions, as the LEDs will drain the battery more quickly  
than regular daytime use.

Camera Installation  
Installing the Camera:  
1. Carefully unpack the Camera.  
2. Decide whether the camera will be permanently wall mounted or sit on a  
tabletop:  
If you decide to place the camera on a tabletop or other flat surface, the  
camera can easily be moved to different locations as desired. It is  
strongly recommended that the camera be affixed to the table top  
surface to prevent damage to the camera in case of tabletop surface  
movement or improper handling.  
If you decide to permanently mount the camera to a wall, make sure to  
select a location close to a power outlet.  
NOTE: Wireless cameras require a power source (either an electrical outlet  
or battery power) to operate. If you plan to permanently mount the camera  
in a location, it is recommended to use the included Camera Power  
adaptor to prevent interruptions in the image, as the battery adaptor is  
intended as a temporary power solution.  
Table Top Mount:  
The Camera can be  
placed on any flat  
surface.  
Wall Mounting Instructions  
To mount the camera to a wall:  
1. Loosen the screw located on the side  
1
of the camera base using a slot head  
screwdriver.  
2. Pull the camera free from the Stand.

3. Mount the stand to the wall:  
Mark the position of the two screw holes  
on the wall.  
Drill holes and insert the drywall plugs as  
needed.  
Position the power cable through either  
slot on the top or bottom of the stand as  
desired.  
3
Firmly attach the stand to the wall using  
the provided screws.

4. Replace the camera in the desired mounting position. Tighten the side screw to secure the camera to  
the Stand. Adjust the angle of the camera until the desired view is set.  
Connecting Camera Power  
The Camera can be powered either by using the provided Power Adaptor, or using a 9v battery and the  
Battery Adaptor Cable:  
POWER ADAPTOR: Connect the Power Adaptor to the Camera.  
BATTERY: Connect the battery adaptor cable. Connect a 9 Volt Battery to the adaptor cable  
(NOTE: The new 9V Battery should last for approximately 4 hours without the IR LEDs in use).  
NOTE: Wireless cameras require a power source (either an electrical outlet or battery power) to  
operate. If you plan to permanently mount the camera in a location, it is recommended to use the  
included Camera Power adaptor to prevent interruptions in the image, as the battery adaptor is  
intended as a temporary power solution.  
Power Adaptor:  
Connect the Power  
Adaptor to the Female  
Barrel Power  
termination on the  
camera.  
Battery: Connect the  
Camera Battery Adaptor
