Swann nightwatch Installation Manual

Things to consider when operating the Night Watch Camera
1. To extend the operating distance of the camera from your TV or VCR you will need to purchase a suitable
A/V extension Cable and gender changers where necessary. It is better to use one cable of the correct length
than 3 or 4 shorter cables with adapters. Use of more adaptors can degrade the picture quality and reduce the
effective cable length. Many electronic and hardware stores can make suitable cables and terminate them for
you. Consult with your local dealer for more information.
2. The camera must not be placed where it looks directly into the sun or any other bright light source, as this
will not only result in a poor image, but will eventually damage the electronics of the camera.
3. Areas with a high degree of contrast in the light levels may require re-positioning of the camera in order to
obtain the best image.
4. The best viewing angle is achieved by placing the camera in a position where it is looking down on the subject.
5. IMPORTANT: For night-time use or when situated in a dimly-lit environment the camera will automatically
activate the Infra-Red LEDs and the colour model will also change to a Black & White image. You will then be
able to view the area within range of the Infra-Red LEDs.
