INSTALLATION
Place the monitor in a location with clear reception from your camera(s). If you are
using the monitor as a stand-alone unit, ip out the stand on the back of the monitor
and extend the antenna.
1. Insert one end of the USB-C cable to the USB-C port on the side of the monitor.
2. Connect the other end of the USB cable into the USB power adaptor.
3. Connect the USB power adaptor into a 240 volt AC (standard indoor) power
outlet.
Press and hold the POWER button to turn the unit on or off. Let the monitor charge
for 6 hours prior to rst time use so the built-in rechargeable monitor battery is fully
charged. DO NOT remove the USB cable from the monitor during the initial charge
process. After the initial charge, recharge the monitor as needed.
#We recommend that the device should be fully charged once every three months
with the monitor switched off in order to prolong the device’s battery life.
CAMERA INSTALLATION
The camera and the mounting clip are a complete unit. The camera can be placed
on a shelf or the included mounting clip has two slots that t over screws to mount
or clip the camera on ledges and shelves the unit on the wall.
Placement Considerations
• 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.
• 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.
#You can install a maximum of 2 cameras. When adding cameras
that were not included in the original box, you will need to pair the
cameras with the monitor.
