INSTALLATION
MONITOR
1. Place the monitor in a location with clear reception from your camera(s). Place it
a minimum of 1m from the crib.
2. Plug the AC adaptor power plug into the monitor’s DC adaptor input jack.
3. Plug the power plug into a 240 volt AC (standard indoor) power outlet or surge
protector.
4. Press and hold POWER to turn the unit on or off. Let the monitor charge for 6
hours prior to first time use so the built-in rechargeable monitor battery is fully
charged. DO NOT remove the power cable from the monitor during the initial
charge process. After the initial charge, recharge the monitor as needed.
5. Out of range displays on the LCD until you turn on the camera.
CAMERA
• The camera included with your monitor is NOT weatherproof; it is an indoor
camera.
• The clearest line-of-sight between the camera and monitor is best. Walls,
especially brick and concrete, can affect reception quality.
• Avoid having a direct light source in view of the camera (ceiling or floor lamps).
• Carefully plan where and how the camera will be positioned, and where you
will route the cable that connects the camera to the power adaptor. Place it a
minimum of 3 feet from the crib.
• When you are positioning the camera, bring the monitor along; it’s much easier
to get the camera into the right position when you have the display handy. Check
the image on the monitor before you install the camera.
• Out of range displays when the camera is out of range, turned off, or
unsuccessfully paired to the monitor. It also displays when the monitor is out of
range.
The BW3000 camera and mounting clip are a complete unit. The BW3000 Camera
does come with a separate suction cup bar. With it installed, you can mount the
camera on glass or smooth metallic surfaces.
Placement Considerations
#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 monitor. Refer to page 25.

7
Wall Mount
The Indoor Camera mounting clip has two
slots that fit over screws to mount the unit on
the wall.
1. Mark the position of the screw holes on
the wall.
2. Drill holes and insert the anchors and
screws provided.
3. Be sure to leave room for the mounting to
fit over the screw heads.
4. Place the mounting over the installed screws and push it downwards, locking it
into place.
5. Adjust the camera as needed.
Suction Mount
1. Insert the suction base into the mounting
clip as shown.
2. Firmly press the camera with the suction
base attached onto glass or metallic
surfaces.
3. Adjust the camera as needed.
Clip Mount
Clip the Indoor Camera on ledges and
shelves.
1. Press the mounting clip as shown.
2. Place the unit over the mounting
surface and release.
3. Adjust the camera as needed.
Connect Power
1. Insert the AC adaptor power plug into the camera’s DC adaptor input jack.
2. Plug the other end into a 240 volt AC (standard indoor) power outlet or surge
protector. The charging LED turns on. If the battery is not fully charged, the LED
glows red. If it is fully charged, the LED glows green.
3. Press POWER. The green power LED turns on and the monitor now displays
camera video. If it doesn’t, try reconnecting the AC adaptor, making sure the
power outlet isn’t controlled by a wall switch.
