Camera Placement & Interference
The Wireless OutdoorCam operates on 2.4GHz frequency. Some devices such as
wireless routers, microwaves, cordless phones can cause interference and affect
picture quality as they use the same frequency. If you are experiencing interference
or poor image quality try the following steps:
- move or orient the camera in a different location
- adjust or aim the receiver antenna
- limit the number of walls, fl oors between the camera and receiver as this can
dramatically alter picture quality
- dense materials such as concrete or metal will impede the wireless signal; move
the camera and/or receiver away from dense materials
- if possible keep the camera and receiver away from or move confl icting devices
such as wireless routers, microwaves, cordless phones
- make sure all cameras are set to different camera channels
- disconnect all other wireless devices to fi nd out which is causing the problem and
adjust your setup accordingly
- analog wireless cameras are not recommended for use with DVR systems; if you
are looking for a wireless camera solution for recording purposes see the digital
wireless ADW-300 (SW233-ADW) which will not suffer from interference
- some wireless signals may originate from nearby homes or businesses; in this case
a wired camera may be necessary
