Installing the Wireless B/W Monitoring System
To install the system, follow these steps:
Receiver:
1. Plug the 10V AC/DC adapter cord into the DC input jack on the back of the receiver.
2. Connect the audio/video cord to the audio/video output jack(s) on the back of the
receiver. Connect the other end of the audio/video cord to the audio/video input jack
on your TV or monitor.
3. Plug the 10V AC/DC adapter into a standard 120V AC outlet. The power indicator LED
located on the back of the receiver should light.
4. The channel LED located on the front of the receiver will light to indicate the selected
channel or channels in use.
Camera:
1. Plug the 10V AC/DC adapter cord into the DC input jack on the back of the camera.
2. Plug the 10V AC/DC adapter into a standard 120V AC outlet. Switch the camera ON.
The power indicator LED located on the front of the camera should light.
System Set Up:
1. Select the channel to be used on both the camera and receiver (Channel 1-3).
NOTE: Make sure the camera and receiver are set to the same channel (1, 2, or 3).
2. Set the selected channel by gently pushing the dip-switch for that channel to the ON
position on both the camera and the receiver.
To set both the camera and receiver on Channel 1:
(a) Push the Channel 1 dip-switch located on the back of the
camera and the bottom of the receiver to the ON position.
(b) Make sure the remaining dip-switches are in the OFF posi-
tion. In this case, channels 2 and 3 should be in the OFF
position.
If more than one camera is to be installed and operated at the same time:
Simply follow steps a and b and set the dip-switches for the other channels on the
camera and receiver to ON.
For example to operate two cameras:
set Camera 1 to Channel 1 (other channels
off), set Camera 2 to Channel 2 (other
channels off), and on the Receiver,
set channels 1 and 2 to ON.
See "Camera and Receiver Setting
Chart" below for more detailed
instructions.
3. Position the camera antenna toward the receiver antenna. Rotate/adjust the antennas
on both the camera and receiver for best performance.
