THINGS TO CONSIDER BEFORE INSTALLATION
• The camera should be installed between 8 to 13ft above the area to be monitored
• Ensure that the camera is installed NO MORE than 100 ft away from the monitor’s position to maintain a
strong signal between the camera and monitor
• Before mounting the camera, ensure there are no obstructions in the camera’s view
• Place camera in the most strategic place where it can provide detailed video of your home or business. Having
the camera in the open for people to see can help deter criminals
• To cover large, dark areas such as backyards, garages, and driveways, place camera in a strategic location, such
as on the roof or deck. This way, more area is covered by the camera
• Ensure that the camera is positioned to avoid glare. Be sure to position camera away from direct sunlight or
indoor lighting
• For best results, light in front of the camera should be around the same brightness as the light around the area
or object being monitored
• Decide whether the camera will be wall-mounted, ceiling mounted or mounted on a desk/table top. We
recommend that the mount is secured using the included screws and hardware for all installations
The GX301 utilizes Clear Signal Technology,
meaning that it is designed to avoid the
frequencies of common wireless devices.
By doing so, the system does not receive
interference from any standardized
2.4GHz or 5.8 GHz wireless devices
within your home or business.
The signal also passes easily through
interior walls. However, buildings with
metal frames or placing the camera
near large metal objects may cause signal
interference. If reception is poor, moving the
camera and/or monitor closer to one another
may x this problem. Interference is also
possible if another device within the building
(such as a cordless phone) is operating on the
same frequency.
AVOIDING INTERFERENCE

MOUNTING THE CAMERA
1. Decide if the camera will be wall-mounted or sitting
on a desk/tabletop. The camera can be adjusted
for many mounting scenarios by rotating it to the
required position.
• Keep in mind that the camera is microphone
equipped. If you would like audio recorded,
make sure the camera is within a close enough
range of the area being monitored to record
any sounds (within 6 ft)
• Be sure to mount the camera no further than
100ft away from your monitor
• Be sure to mount the camera no further than 8ft
away from a power source
2. Screw the mounting bracket into the camera’s
mounting hole, turning it clockwise.
3. Ensure that the camera is strongly secured into
the wall.
4. Adjust camera to the desired viewing angle.
5. For additional help with mounting the camera,
please see the drilling template located at the back
of the manual.
6. Once you have mounted the camera and placed
it at the desired viewing angle, plug the camera’s
power adapter (marked for camera) into the cord on
the camera and then plug the adapter into a power
source. (A surge protected power source is
recommended)
7. If you purchased a kit with additional cameras,
repeat the above steps for all additional cameras.
Note: The above photos are examples of
mounting a camera, your camera will
look dierent from the above images.
Plug power adapter into Camera’s cord
Plug into Surge Protected power source
Adjust camera to desired viewing angle
Ensure the camera is secure

\
To plug monitor in:
1. Make sure that the monitor is set up no more then
100ft from the camera.This is to ensure a strong
signal between the camera and monitor.
2. Plug the monitor’s power adapter (marked for
monitor) into the monitor’s power input area
(marked“9V DC”).
3. Plug the other end of the power adapter into a power
source (surge protected power source recommended).
4. Press the power button to turn the monitor on to view
and hear the camera.
PLUGGING IN MONITOR
Once the monitor is connected to a power source , turn it on using the power button and it will automatically pair
with the camera. If the camera and monitor do not automatically pair please see“PAIRING” Pg 14.
Plug into Surge Protected power source
To plug the 7" LCD Monitor into another Monitor:
1. Plug single end of the A/V cable into A/V out area on back of monitor.
2. Plug the video jack (yellow) into the video input on your monitor and the audio jack (white) into the audio
input on your monitor, then press the A/V button on the 7" LCD monitor.
3. You may have to adjust the channels or video source input on your monitor to view the footage.
4. Once the proper channel is set, the footage from the camera will display on the monitor.
CONNECTING TO ANOTHER MONITOR
The GX301 comes equipped with an audio/video cable that can be plugged into any monitor with an audio/video
input. Once plugged in, you will be able to watch and hear live video, access and view the menu as well as watch
playback footage from the monitor you have plugged into.
