How to use the Control Buttons:
AUTO BUTTON – When the receiver is set to AUTO
Mode, it will continuously switch between the cameras
that are set to ON. The dwell time is set to 4 seconds per
camera (by default), however this can be adjusted to 2~30
seconds. To adjust the dwell time, press and hold both
the AUTO and MANUAL buttons at the same time – this
will produce beeps indicating one second increments (i.e.
each beep represents one second in dwell time). Once the
desired dwell time has been reached, release the buttons.
MANUAL BUTTON – Press the MANUAL button to
switch between available cameras. The Receiver will
switch to a different camera (if available and configured)
each time the MANUAL button is pressed.
* Number of cameras may vary by model. Check your
package for specific content information.
* Connect power adaptor to local AC power outlet
* 1 of each provided with the LW1001 System/ 2 of each

Step 1 - Wireless Receiver Set-up Installation
Plug the Receiver power cable into the
9V POWER input. Plug the power adaptor
into a wall outlet or surge protector.
Place the receiver in a place that will have
clear reception to your camera(s). Try to
avoid placing the receiver near other 900MHz
devices (such as older cordless phones, etc.)

Helpful Tips:
• Use of other 900MHz products (including older model cordless phones) may
cause interference with the picture quality. Try changing the channels on
the Receiver and Camera, or moving the interfering device to another area.
• Better reception can often be accomplished by changing the position of the
Receiver unit -or-changing the position of the Camera.
• The Receiver is a wireless product, and is subject to a number of
environmental conditions. Walking between the receiver and camera may
cause temporary interference.
• The optimal distance of the camera (during low light / nighttime use) from
the person or object is 4~6 feet (up to 2 meters). The picture may become
grainy beyond this distance due to lack of light –an additional light source
in the room, such as a night light or illuminator may improve the picture
quality.
• During low light / night use, the closer the Receiver is to the Camera, the
better the picture quality. The picture may become grainy at farther
distances. The optimal distance for normal home use is 15~60 feet (3~18
meters), however the MAXIMUM RANGE is up to 300feet in optimal
conditions.
• Audio feedback may appear when the receiver and cameras are too close
(under 15 feet / 3 meters).
