Wireless Receiver Installation
1. Before receiver installation, choose one installation method from below 2 methods:
1). Desktop or table stand.
For this method, you only need to place the receiver on a desktop.
2). Wall mounting
Decide where to mount the receiver first. Make sure the range between the position and the nearest
power output port is no more than 5 feet. Also, the range between the position and TV or VCR/DVR
should be no more than 5 feet.
Drill two holes on the wall where you decide to install the receiver. Insert a plastic anchor to each hole
and fix a screw into the plastic anchor. Insert the screws into the two holes located on the bottom of
receiver and then push down the receiver.
Adjust the receiver for best viewing angle.
2. After the receiver is well positioned, plug the AC adaptor power output cable into the 5V POWER input
of the receiver, and plug the power plug into a wall outlet or surge protector.
3. If you wish to view the receiver images on a larger screen, connect one end of the included AV cable
to the AV output of receiver, and connect the other end to the Video IN (Yellow) and Audio IN (White)
ports on the TV, VCR or other viewing/recording devices.
Note: When outputting Audio/Video to TV, etc, press the AV button on the remote control to output audio
and video to TV.
The receiver installation is now completed.

Wireless Camera
1. Camera Antenna
–Receives & Sends signals to or
from the
Receiver.
2. Lens – Catches the video in front of the lens and transmits video
from camera to receiver.
3. IR LED
–Infrared LEDs provide viewing
in no/low light
conditions.
4. PIR sensor – Detects motion in front of the lens and emits
detection signal to transmitter.
5. Thumbscrew -Rotates the thumbscrew to adjust the angle of the
camera until the desired view is set
6. Speaker- Produces the sound transmitted from the monitor.
7. Bracket – Use the bracket to mount the camera on a wall or other
flat surfaces.
8. Pairing Button –The pairing button is located on
the back of the camera behind by the stand mount.
9. Power Jack –Connect the DC 5V Power Adaptor to the Camera.
Note: This camera includes an Auto Mechanical IR Cut Filter. When
the camera changes between day mode and night vision mode, an
audible clicking noise may be heard coming from the camera. This
clicking is normal, and indicates that the camera filter is working.
Camera Installation
Before you install the camera, carefully plan where and how it will be positioned, and where you will
route the cable that connects the camera to the power adaptor.
Before starting permanent installation, verify its performance by observing the image on the receiver
when camera is positioned in the same location/position where it will be permanently installed and the
receiver is placed in the location where it will be used most of the time
Installation Warnings:
Aim the Camera(s) to best optimize the viewing area: Select a location for the camera that provides a
clear view of the area you want to monitor, which is free from dust, and is not in line-of-sight to a strong
light source or direct sunlight.
Avoid installing the cameras where there are thick walls, or obstructions between the Cameras and the
Receiver.

Night Vision
This camera has built-in IR LEDs, which provides the camera with the ability to view images in no/low
light conditions. It is important to use the provided power adaptor when using the camera for prolonged
periods in low light conditions, as the built-in IR LEDs will drain power more quickly than regular
daytime use.
Night vision will be automatically switched on in low illumination condition.
1. Carefully
unpack the Camera.
NOTE: If you are installing Cameras that did not come with the system, please see the Pairing Camera
section
of this manual for details on installation.
2.
Mount the camera to the wall:
Mark the position of the screw holes on the wall, drill holes and insert the supplied 3 plastic anchors, then
firmly fix the camera bracket to the plastic anchors with supplied screws.
NOTE: The camera can also be placed on a flat surface, such as a Table or Shelf, and no mounting
hardware is required.
3.
Adjust the Viewing angle of the Camera.
You can adjust the viewing angle to monitor desired area by rotating the camera bracket. Here are some
templates:
Connecting Camera Power
After the camera is installed, plug the AC adaptor power output cable into
the 9V POWER jack of the camera, and plug the power plug into a wall
outlet or surge protector.
NOTE: You can install additional cameras (maximum of 4 cameras). When adding cameras that were
not included in the original box, you will need to pair the cameras with the receiver. Refer to the camera
pairing section of this manual.
Make sure is the DC 9V for camera, and DC 5V for Receiver
Make sure the power adaptor is placed into a grounded outlet or surge bar to protect the camera from
power fluctuations.
