Step 2 of 6: Connecting the video monitor to the PC

1 Turn on the camera first, then the video monitor. Make sure you can see a video image on
channel 1.
NOTE: Pair the camera that is most important for you to view remotely to Channel 1. For
instructions on how to pair cameras, see "Pairing/adding cameras" on page 33.
2 Connect the mini-USB cable (included) to your video monitor and into the computer's USB
port. The video monitor displays the following: "USB PC CAMERA MODE"

Step 3 of 6: Creating a Skype account

A Skype account allows you to connect to your camera through the Skype service. Skype is a
service that allows users to make voice calls and video calls to anywhere in the world.
In order to connect to your video monitor using Skype, you will need two accounts—one for the
camera (e.g Lorex Camera) and one for yourself (e.g. Tom Smith).
NOTE: The Skype illustrations and instructions below serve as a guideline only. Skype may
change their website / product interface without prior notice.
