General Information
The system consists of two main parts, a barn side, and a house side.
On the end where the camera will be located (the barn) is also where the transmitter box and power supply will
be mounted (on the outside of the building facing the house where the receiver will be located) The transmitter
and camera will be connected together with the camera cable. A power supply will also be connected to the
camera. The receiver will be located at the viewing location (your house) and connected to your TV with the
RCA cables. The joystick controller will also be located at the house
.
The camera and transmitter will be provided with a power supply and color coded 10 meter cable
We strongly recommend using a surge protector and grounding the camera mount to prevent potential damage
in the case of power surges or lightning.
Basic Setup Instructions:
*NOTE: Please see the Optional Equipment section for setup and information on any additional
equipment you have purchased.*
Indoor Equipment (House Side)
Begin by plugging the power supply for the receiver into the back of the receiver (DC 12V). Plug the
Yellow RCA cable into (video) the back of the receiver and the other end will plug into your T.V or DVR (into
the yellow video jack). (The standard channel select setting for the receiver is #1). You only need to connect the
audio RCA cables (white/red) if you purchased the optional Audio modification box.
Screw the mini bud antennae to the back of the PTZ controller, finger tight. Connect the power supply to the
PTZ camera controller. This will be the only connection to the controller that is required—the unit operates
wirelessly.
Please note that the controller is not connected to video it controls camera
movement only.
The signal to operate the movement of the camera will be sent wirelessly via the
antenna on the PTZ controller.
Outdoor Equipment (Barn Side)
Now that you have the receiver and controller set up, we will now set up the outdoor equipment. Starting
with the camera, plug the camera cable into the 6-pin male connecter end on the camera. The other end of the
camera cable will be connected to the bottom of the transmitter where there is a 6-pin female connector that it
will plug into.
Each of the power cables will get plugged into their associated power supply. Making sure that the color
coordinated cables are matched Plug in the power supply box to a 110V outlet and the camera will begin is
startup routine. During which time it will display on the TV screen its information such as its address, baud rate,
and protocol.
Once you plug in the controller, make sure that the controller and camera are on the same address, take

5
note of what the address of the camera is from the TV s when it does its startup routine, and then enter in that
address number on the keypad of the PTZ Controller followed by the CAM button. (Eg Dome ID: 001, on the
keypad of the controller press: 01 on the PTZ controller then CAM button. That will set the address on the
keypad to 01 and you will be able to control the camera with address 01.) Normally the camera and controller
addresses will be 01 (001), but that is not always so.
Transmitter Information
If you unscrew the 4 Phillips screws on the front of the transmitter you will be
able to take the cover off. Please do not over tighten them as they will break. Be sure
to replace the lid in the correct orientation or it will not seal correctly. Tip: note the
position of the logo before removing the lid.
Inside of the transmitter box you will find a LED display this will tell you what
channel this particular transmitter is on, it can be switched to one of seven frequencies.
You can change the channels by using the two buttons. If you push the channel selector
once, it will go to channel two, once more to three etc. go to channel 3, and so forth.
Be sure not to have more than one transmitter set on the same channel, i.e.
channel one (you won’t damage anything but the video picture at the house will look
very scrambled). Ensure that the channel you have the transmitter set on matches the
channel on the receiver at the house.
There is no on/off switch for the transmitter or camera; the only way to turn it off is to unplug the unit.
We strongly recommend that you unplug the unit after your calving season is complete, and wrap up the
plug end, as damage may occur during thunderstorms and extremely high winds due to power lines clashing.
You will know that the unit is powered on when the channel indicator is lit inside the transmitter box.
There is a mounting bracket that is sent with the
unit so you can mount it to a pole or wall. The
transmitter must be mounted outside. Install it
so it fits tightly to the mounting location.
Connect camera to mount. Connect power
cables to power boxes. Finally run the camera
cable from the transmitter to the camera.
Caution: ensure the cable does not get cut by
any sharp edges from the hole you cut. Also be
sure to aim the transmitter so that it points
towards where the receiver is located. The
transmitter should be mounted in the vertical
position with the mounting hardware on the
bottom, the transmitter sticker facing the
receiver location and the antennas pointed down.

Camera Mounting Instructions
Small PTZ
Kit Includes:
(1) LMS-MNT-PTZ-SM universal mount bracket
(4) 1‖ X 1/4‖ track bolts for camera attachment
(4) 1/4‖ lock washer nuts
(1) 5/16‖ flat washer (for setting track bolts)
Step #1: Installing track bolts
Choose the camera mount bolt pattern before installing
track bolts.
If a bolt pattern is not available drill 17/64‖ holes for other patterns.
Install the track bolt from the inside of the mount and use the four 5/16 flat washer (between the
nut and mount base) to help the bolt into the 17/64‖ hole
Use a wrench to tighten the nut thus pulling the track bolt into firm position.
The track bolts can also be hammered into place
Step #2: The MNT-PTZ-SM-001 mount bracket
Can be used for the following applications:
* Flat Mounting
*Corner Mounting
*Pole Mounting
*Flat mounting example:
Installing #14 or 1/4‖ self taping hex head screws after track bolts
installed (plywood is only used for demonstration purposes, not needed for
installation. Use six screws for a solid mounting into wall.) - See image to the left
*Corner Mounting example:
Bending of mounting flanges in a vise to the appropriate angle is required (#14 or 1/4‖
diameter attachment screws required) - See images to the right
Pole mounting example:
Flanges bent to appropriate angle for pole diameter (use a Stainless
large size hose clamps or self taping screws #14 or 1/4‖) - See below
Step #3:
After the LMS-MNT-PTZ-SM mount bracket is fixed to the wall or
pole, the camera can be attached to it using 1/4‖ nuts (supplied). The wiring can led through the
hole or outside as necessary.
Example: (flat mount shown)
Step #4: Next take the power cable from the power supply box with orange end and plug
it into the matching plug on the camera. An optional extension cable may be supplied.
The cable with the black end from the power supply box will get plugged into the matching plug on the
transmitter.

Large PTZ
The large camera mount LMS -MNT-PTZ-LRG can be used to mount the camera on a telephone pole or exterior corner of
a building.
It is made of stainless steel and supplied with 3/8‖ course thread track bolts and flange nuts.
The track bolts must be installed in the mount so that they project out toward the camera mount.
To install the track bolts, use the 4 washers provided as a spacer, then pull the track bolt into the mount with the supplied
3/8‖ course flanged nuts. The track bolts may also be hammered in.
**mount the bracket on the pole or wall before installing the camera**
Two methods of attachment to a pole are available:
Step #1: use 4 or 6, 3/8‖ lag screws –see left image
Step #2: 4 or 6, large stainless adjustable tie straps –see right
image
Exterior Corner Mounting:
The camera mount bracket is designed to fit on a corner of a building.
Use 2‖X3/8‖ lag screws to solidly mount it on an exterior corner.
Flat Wall Mounting:
Large 3/8‖ hex self-taping lag screws are available for fastening
the mount directly to a wall. It is recommended that if the camera
is being mounted directly to a wall, that 1‖ plywood backing plate
be solidly attached to the wall, then the camera attached to the
plywood backing using 3/8‖ X 2‖ lag screws.
Step #3: Next take the power cable from the power supply
box with orange end and plug it into the matching plug on
the camera. An optional extension cable may be supplied.
The cable with the black end from the power supply box
will get plugged into the matching plug on the transmitter.

Instructions include the following:
How to pull track bolts into the mounting plate.
How to fasten the mounting plate to top of pole.
How to fasten camera to the mounting plate.

Step #1 –Setting Track Bolts:
Step #2 –Fastening Mounting Plate to Pole:
-Typically the mounting plate would be fastened to the top of a light post (telephone pole). In this
case a 4x4 Post was just used as an example.
-If using a wooden pole - Pre-drill 1/8” holes for lag bolts
-Paint can also be removed from bottom of plate, and welded in the case of a metal pole.
-Locate four holes in a square pattern
you will be using to mount the camera.
-Put your track bolt through one of the 4 holes.
-Put all 4 washers over the end of the bolt and thread on a
nut.
-Using an 11mm Socket or wrench. Firmly tighten the nut
to pull the bolt into a properly set position.
-A hammer can also be used to set the track bolt.

9
-When fastening the mounting plate to a proper
pole, much more holes can be utilized for added
strength.
-If mounting surface is big enough, outside holes can
also be used.
Step #3 –Fastening Camera to Mounting Plate:
-To ensure camera cable does not get pinched, and make the running of the cables easier, first feed
connectors through the oval shaped hole in the plate (Only if Mounting surface allows an opening
underneath!)
Lastly put camera on the mounting plate with bolts coming through the mounting holes on camera.
-Add lock nuts. And tighten down firmly.

Programming / Camera Operations
Moving Camera
To move the camera you push the joystick left to move to left and right to move the camera to the right.
The harder you push the joystick, the faster the camera moves; a slight push moves the camera slowly.
You can also use the joystick for zooming out by turning the knob clockwise and zoom in by turning the
knob counter clockwise.
Controller Buttons
The top rows of 12 buttons are accessory buttons that will not be used for the
application you will be using the controller for.
The 6 buttons on right hand side closest to the joystick
are your manual camera functions i.e. Wide = zoom in, tele=zoom out, open & close will be
how you open & close the menu, near & far are your focusing buttons.
You can change the ID of the camera by pressing the prev & next buttons i.e. If your on
camera ID 01 it will change it to camera ID 02, so if your camera ID is 01 and the controller
is on camera ID 2 then it will not control your camera. Please remember for cases you don’t
have control.
Note that, when using the screen controller, the image on the screen will not change automatically when the ID
is changed. To change the camera being viewed, first change the ID on the controller and then move the joystick
in any direction.
These are the main buttons that you will use on the controller.
- Press 95 &Pre to enter the menu of the camera.
-To display the menu of the controller to ensure that everything
matches the camera (baudrate, protocol & camera ID), press and
hold shi & set, do the same to remove this menu. This should
only be done to verify the controller settings match the camera
settings in the event you are having trouble controlling the
camera.

Picture Problems
If you do not get a picture right away, upon completing your connection you may have to unplug and
plug the transmitter back in, this does a system reset, and usually rectifies the problem if there is no picture
from the system.
If you have any problems please refer to our website for a step by step troubleshooting chart www.cowcam.ca
this will take you directly to the support page:
If you have tried these steps and still unable to fix the problem please give us a call to speak to our helpdesk;
**Please note for the basic system it is very important that the receiver be located on the same side of the
house as the transmitter is located (you may try other locations once you have acquired your signal)
preferably on the inside of the outside wall so the two units can see one another through only one wall with
as little obstruction as possible.
Trees, shrubs and hay bales do not seem to hinder the picture quality too much during the
winter, trees do effect the signal once the leaves come out. You may find that you may have to adjust
the antenna or the receiver unit by lifting it up for better reception.
If you have buildings or machinery in the way, it will possibly lower your picture quality, it also
depends on what the buildings are made of, metal or large machinery block the signal. It is best not to
have anything in the way of the signal path, we understand that you cannot move buildings so try to
position the transmitter higher up above the roofline or higher than the objects in the way.
If you are placing the receiver in front of a window and you are not getting a good picture it
could be due to the type of windows. High energy efficiency windows in particular may restrict or
block the signal. These windows contain Argon gas or a coating that seems to block the signal, just
move the receiver over from the window and you will more than likely get a signal.
Metal siding will not allow a strong signal into the home if the receiver is placed behind it, so
you will want to try to place the receiver near a window location. You may have to re-position the
antenna angle on the receiver in order to find the best signal with the basic models you may find that
you have to move the receiver up or down, trial and error will get you the best signal.
Stucco, foil covered foam, cement board, and brick may also disrupt or block the signal.
If you continue to have problems receiving a signal we do have optional external antennaes that
are available as well as outdoor receivers.

Port Forwarding:
Port forwarding requires a bit more knowledge of your router in order to set up for you. For assistance with port
forwarding please call technical support.
Office: 204-728-8878
or
Toll Free: 1-866-289-8164
Port Forwarding:
What is port forwarding?
port forwarding or port mapping is an application that redirects a communication request from one address and port
number combination to another while the packets are traversing a network gateway, such as a router or firewall This
technique is most commonly used to make services on a host residing on a protected (internal) network available to hosts
on the opposite side of the gateway (external network), by remapping the destination IP address and port number of the
communication to an internal host.
Why is it important?
We use port forwarding to remove any barriers that may block your camera signals going up through the internet and down
to your phone or tablet. Your Internet Service Provider (ISP) may also block ports on their end and prevent you from
getting the signal through. The ports we use are 37777, 5554 and 8080. It is important that these ports be opened by your
ISP or you will be unable to have your smart phone connect to your cameras outside your local network..

Audio
Box
Audio Modification
Installation Steps:
If the Audio Modification Box option was purchased, you will have two cable ends, they are
setup so that the camera end will fit into one side and the camera cable into the other the connectors,
the connectors on the audio box are opposites. The audio modification box is
designed to be mounted onto the wall it has
mounting holes for it. You can mount the
audio mod either right before the camera or
the transmitter box which ever works best for
you. On the inside of the Audio device you
will see an adjustment knob, this is how you
would adjust your audio sensitivity.
Expansion Pack
Installation Steps:
You will notice that the cameras are labelled ID1, ID2, ID3, & ID4.
This is to match the ports on the expansion box (white) Cam1, Cam2, Cam3 & Cam4. Please plug the
camera into the corresponding plug, this is to ensure movement of your camera.
You will plug the receiver using the stereo plugs or RCA cords that have come with your system into
the video port of your TV. All the camera's video signal will be coming in on one channel (usually CH
1). The way you would switch back and forth from camera1 to camera2 and so forth will be though
your PTZ controller.
If you would like to see the camera that is plugged into Cam Port1 you will press 1 CAM on the
controller then move the joystick. If it’s the camera that is plugged into Cam Port2 then you will press
2 CAM on the controller then move the joystick and so on.
If you have purchased a DVR with your Expansion Pack you will have special adaptors that will plug
into all 4 channel ports on the DVR. (You will see the same camera on all 4 channels) In order to
switch from camera to camera, whether it be on the DVR itself or through the app on your phone, you
will right click and click on View1 then you will select the camera in the drop down box that you wish
to view. This will switch to that camera on that port of the expansion box. You will then need to right
click again and click on pan tilt/ zoom once the little screen pops up you can press on any of the arrows
