INTRODUCTION Section 1
The Response 2 Channel DVR Camera(s) Kit is a monitoring system designed to capture
photos or 10 second video clips of any motion viewed by the camera(s) and store them in
memory. It allows up to 2 wired cameras to connect to it. The wired cameras are colour,
weatherproof and suitable for day/night use. They easily connect to your DVR for the
protection of your home, office, etc.
SAFETY AND INSTALLATION TIPS:
DVR
●Keep away from heat sources and high temperature places, above 40°C
●Avoid direct sunlight
●Avoid humid places
●Avoid vibration
●Install in a ventilated environment
Camera(s) and DVR
Do not attempt to open the units with the power adaptor plug connected to avoid any risk
of personal injury.
When installing CCTV camera(s), always follow manufacturer’s advice when using power
tools, steps, ladders, etc. and wear suitable protective equipment (e.g. safety goggles) when
drilling holes. Before drilling holes through walls check for hidden electricity cables and
water pipes. The use of a cable/pipe detector is advisable.
When installing any cameras with this unit, it is advisable to use cable conduit to protect any
video/power extension cables from being exposed externally and to prevent/reduce the
chances of the cables being tampered with. After drilling any hole though an external wall
for a cable, ensure the hole is sealed up around the cable using a sealant to prevent drafts.
To prevent a fire or electrical shock hazard, do not attempt to open the housing while the
unit is exposed to rain, water or wet conditions. There are no user serviceable parts
inside. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.
NIGHT VISION:
The cameras have built-in infra-red LEDs to allow you to view at night for 24hrs
surveillance. The LEDs will automatically activate at night and the picture viewed will turn
to black and white.

4.2 Camera(s) Installation
1. Remove the bracket from the camera by unscrewing it from the main body as shown
below:
2. Use the base of the camera’s bracket to mark out the 3 mounting holes on the chosen
surface. Mark out a hole for the cable connectors to pass through into the property
next to the camera.
Note: It is recommended to pass the cable into the property as close to the camera as
possible to reduce the chances of any exposed cables being tampered with. If you
choose to run the cable along the wall outside the property, it is recommended to use
cable conduit to hide the cable and reduce the chances of it being tampered with.
3. Drill 3 x 5mm mounting holes for the bracket’s wall plugs and 1 x 20mm hole for the
camera’s power and video connectors to pass through the wall.
4. Install the camera bracket using the supplied wall plugs and screws.
5. Feed the video/power leads through the hole in the wall, starting with the largest
connector, and then refit the camera on to the bracket and adjust the position of the
camera body as required by loosening the adjustment screw.
6. The camera is supplied fitted with a 1m cable terminated with a RCA female plug and
a female power connector.
7. Connect the male end of the power connector from the extension cable into the
camera along with the male RCA connector.
8.
Connect the RCA video end of the extension cable into video input plug of your DVR.
If only one camera is connected to the DVR, then connect this to the channel 1 plug
(white colour).

Note: If the supplied extension cable is not long enough, the extension cable for a camera
can only be extended up to 30m in total length due to power loss.

1.2 Use the left/right key to select the date or time. Use the up/down key
to set the correct digit.
1.3 Press enter to confirm settings.
6.6.2 Motion Detection and Advance Setup
When the DVR is set to motion detect, it records the photo or video by sensing any
change in picture from the selected camera and stores on to an SD memory card.
Although two cameras might be connected to the unit, it will only record from the
selected camera channel. The time and date of the capture are also recorded.
1.4 Use the left/right key to move to the ‘Motion Detect’ icon and press enter to
enable/disable auto capture.
1.5 Use the left/right key to move to the ‘Capture Format’ icon and press enter to
select ‘Photo’ or ‘AVI’ (video). Note that the AVI video clips are fixed at
a 10 second period.
1.6 Use the left/right key to move to the ‘Setup’ icon and press enter.
1.7 Press enter to select the TV system, NTSC or PAL.
1.8 Use the left/right key to move to the image ‘Quality’ icon and press enter to
select high or low quality.
1.9 Use the left/right key to move to the ‘Motion Detect Area (M)’ icon and press
enter. Use the left/right key to select the detection area (full/middle/small
area). Press enter to confirm the setting.
1.10 Use the left/right/up/down key to move the chosen detect area to a desired
target position. Press enter to confirm the setting and exit the area setup.
1.11 Use the left/right key to move to the ‘Motion Detect Count’ icon. This is used
to set the number of photos the DVR will take for every trigger when the DVR
is set to photo capture mode. The settings are 1 / 3 / 5 photo shots. Press enter
to select the required number of shots.

14
1.12 Use the left/right key to move to the ‘Motion Detect Interval’ icon. For photo
capture format mode only, this is used to set the interval break in seconds
between each capture (for example, if set to 5, then after the first trigger, it
would take 5 seconds for the DVR to trigger again). Press enter to select 1/3/5
seconds. It is recommended to set to 1 for maximum event capture.
1.13 Use the left/right key to move to ‘Motion Detect Sensitivity’ icon and press
enter. The sensitivity range is 1~ 99. The larger the value the lower the
sensitivity. Use the up/down key to adjust the ‘Target Value’ to the desired
setting. The recommended setting is 10, however observe if this is too sensitive.
Movement is captured by the change in picture displayed on the TV/monitor in the
selected area. If there are any changes in light such as a reflections, movement of
tree branches, bushes for example, this can cause the system to start recording,
although no approaching objects/persons may be seen during playback. If the
sensitivity is set too high, natural activity such as rain for example may cause the
system to start recording. It is also ideal to point the camera way from trees, bushes
that might be affected by the wind. If any unnecessary photo/videos are captured
adjust the sensitivity lower and observe.
If this DVR at any stage is used with a Wireless Camera and Receiver Kit ( CWFK1)
to receive wireless video, ensure this video viewed on the TV is the best possible
reception (i.e, no interference lines viewed on the TV) between the camera and
receiver. If necessary reduce the distance between the camera and receiver to
prevent any interference on the picture. This is important to prevent the DVR from
capturing any unnecessary recordings of interference when set to motion record. You
may find that that if the wireless camera is installed outside the property, then
maximum operating range without interference may be no more than 10m (provided
only single brick wall acts as a barrier between the camera and receiver).
6.7 Playing Back Recorded Photos/Video Clips:
The photos or videos captured will be stored in different folders for easy searching. The
folders are named according to the date sequence. If there are no file(s) in the memory,
the DVR will display ‘NO FILE’ and return to real time viewing mode.
1. Press the MODE key to enter or exit playback.
2.
Press the enter key to enter thumbnail view. Press again to enter full screen normal view.

3. Use the left/right key to move back or forward to an image or video clip.
4. To play back a video, press the Down key in full screen mode to play the video file
5. In full screen view, press the Up key to turn ON/OFF the on screen display information
(date, time, capture number, etc). For video files ensure you select this before playing
back the file.
6. Press DISP to view any folders and Up/Down keys to scroll to a folder and press enter
to select.
6.8 Memory Overwrite Indication:
When the memory has reached its maximum storage capacity, any further files captured
will overwrite the earliest file stored. When the system is overwriting the earliest file, this
is indicated by the colour of the photo camera or video camera sign on the top left corner
of the TV/monitor. It will turn red when overwriting.
6.9 Deleting Recorded Files:
In play back mode, press the MENU key.
Use the left/right key to move to the required icon to delete the current image (‘Delete
One’ icon), delete all files in the current folder (‘Delete All’ icon) or delete all files stored
in memory (‘Format’ icon).
Press enter to display the tick or cross options for an icon on the screen. Use the left/right
key followed by the enter key to select the chosen option.
