Thank you for purchasing the RadioShack 2.4 GHz

Wireless Surveillance System. This system adds safety and

security to your home or business. It can be used as a

component of an audio/video observation system, or

expanded by adding up to three additional wireless

cameras. The audio/video jacks let you connect to a VCR

for recording purposes. In your home, you can observe your

baby’s room, backyard, or patio area at night or in minimal

lighting. In your business, monitor low-light store-rooms,

warehouses, entry/exit-ways, or a reception area from one

central location.

Select a location for the camera that provides a clear view of

the area you want to monitor, and that is free from dust. The

location should not be in line-of-sight with a strong light

source or in direct sunlight.

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. If interference or other problems develop, refer to

This system broadcasts its high-quality audio and video

using directional antennas, which must be oriented in

certain configurations for best results. The 2.4 GHz

antennas have been designed to pivot and have limited

Rotating the antennas beyond the

In most situations, the curved side of the antennas on both

the camera and monitor should face toward one another.

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 feet (3 meters)

apart, keep the antennas flat in their casings.

Your camera and monitor might cause interference on other

radio/TV devices even when they are operating properly. To

determine whether your camera or monitor is causing the

interference, turn them both off. If the interference goes

away, your surveillance system is causing it. Try to

eliminate the interference by:

• Moving your camera or monitor away from the other

device.

• Connecting your camera or monitor to an outlet that is

on a different electrical circuit from the other device.

• Contacting your local RadioShack store for help.

If you cannot eliminate the interference, the FCC requires

that you stop using your system.

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.

Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2)

this device must accept any interference received, including

interference that may cause undesired operation.

Keep the camera and monitor dry; if they get wet, wipe them

dry immediately. Use and store the camera and monitor

only in normal temperature environments. Handle them

carefully; do not drop them. Keep the camera and monitor

away from dust and dirt, and wipe them with a damp cloth

occasionally to keep them looking new.

If your camera or monitor is not performing as it should, take

it to your local RadioShack store for assistance. Modifying

or tampering with the camera’s or monitor’s internal

components can cause a malfunction and might invalidate

their warranty and void your FCC authorization to operate

them.
