Setting Up Your A-560 System; Safety And Installation Tips; Device Operating Range - First Alert A-560 User Manual

S I
AFETY AND NSTALLATION
Do not attempt to open the camera. There are no user serviceable parts inside. Refer

servicing to qualified service personnel.
When installing the camera, follow manufacturer's advice when using power tools,

steps, ladders, etc. and wear suitable protective equipment (e.g., safety goggles)
when drilling holes. Before drilling holes through a ceiling, check for hidden
electricity cables and water pipes. The use of a cable/pipe detector is advisable.
When installing the camera on an external wall, pass the power cable through the

wall as close as possible to the cameras to reduce the chance of tampering with the
cables. After drilling any hole though an external wall for cable, make sure the hole
is sealed up around the cable using a sealant.
D O
EVICE PERATING
The wireless cameras are capable of transmitting up to 330 ft in open field conditions.
However, when installed around your property, any solid objects (e.g., walls, ceiling,
reinforced PVC doors, etc.) placed between the cameras and receiver will reduce the range.
For best transmission, avoid installations where there are very thick walls or major
obstructions between the wireless cameras and receiver. Avoid installing the cameras or
receiver next to a metal radiator, wireless router, or microwave oven.
If the cameras are used with a digital video recorder (DVR) to record or view video on a TV,
ensure the signal reception is the best possible reception (i.e., no interference lines on the
TV). If necessary, reduce the distance between the cameras and receiver. You may find that if
the wireless cameras are installed outside, the maximum operating range without interference
may be less than 50 ft.
