FCC Statement
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful
interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. Any Changes
or modifications not expressly approved by party responsible for compliance could void the user’ s authority to operate the equipment.
Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules.
These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses
and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio
communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful
interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct
the interference by one or more of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter (see ** ).
IC RSS warning
This device complies with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may
not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device.
Under Industry Canada regulations, this radio transmitter may only operate using an antenna of a type and maximum (or lesser) gain approved for
the transmitter by Industry Canada. To reduce potential radio interference to other users, the antenna type and its gain should be so chosen that, the
equivalent isotropically radiated power (e.i.r.p.) is not more than that necessary for successful communication. (1/2) This radio transmitter (identify
the device by certification number, or model number if Category II) has been approved by Industry Canada to operate with the antenna types listed
below with the maximum permissible gain and required antenna impedance for each antenna type indicated. Antenna types not included in this list,
having a gain greater than the maximum gain indicated for that type, are strictly prohibited for use with this device.
IC Radiation Exposure Statement:
This equipment complies with IC RF radiation exposure limits set forth for an uncontrolled environment. This transmitter must not be co-located or
operating in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter (see **).
** For the IVPC-DS, the equipment should be installed and operated with minimum distance 20 cm between the radiator & your body.

solid white.
Press and hold the factory reset button on the IVPC-DS, to enter the
Wi-Fi registration mode. Retry to set each item.
Communication status with the Wi-Fi router is not
good. Or, not connected.
Check the communication status between the
Wi-Fi router and the IVPC-MS or a smartphone.
Refine the communication state by changing the installation location
of the Wi-Fi router. Move the Wi-Fi router closer to the IVPC-DS.
Also, an IVPC-ANT (optional External Antenna) is available.
A Wi-Fi range extender may expand the Wi-Fi coverage.
The chime does not sound even if
the doorbell button of the IVPC-DS
is pressed (LED does not light).
Power is not supplied to the IVPC-DS. In case of
battery operation, check the remaining battery level
with the IVPC-MS or a smartphone application.
In case of wired operation, check the power supply
wiring and voltage.
In case of battery operation, charge the battery. Charging time is
about 10 hours with 5 V DC, 1 A supply.
In case of wired operation, supply 10 to 24 V AC/DC to the power
supply terminals.
Audio is interrupted.
Communication status with the Wi-Fi router may be
bad. Check the communication status between the
Wi-Fi router and the IVPC-MS or a device running
the OPTEX Vision App.
When the communication state is less than fair, refine the
communication state by changing the installation location of the
Wi-Fi router.
Move the Wi-Fi router closer to the IVPC-DS.
Also, an IVPC-ANT (optional External Antenna) is available.
When the communication state is excellent or good, try raising the
volume of the IVPC-MS or a device running the OPTEX Vision App.
The picture is distorted.
Communication status with the Wi-Fi router may be
bad. Check the communication status between the
Wi-Fi router and the IVPC-MS or a device running
the OPTEX Vision App.
Check whether any device that uses 2.4 GHz band
such as a kitchen microwave or a baby monitor is
located nearby the unit.
When the communication state is less than fair, refine the
communication state by changing the installation location of the
Wi-Fi router. Move the Wi-Fi router closer to the IVPC-DS. Also,
an IVPC-ANT (optional External Antenna) is available.
Move away from those devices.
