INSTRUCTIONS
Camera
You can power the camera with an AC adapter or batteries. For long periods of non-use,
we suggest removing the batteries and unplugging the AC adapter.
For AC power, insert the small AC adapter (labeled “Camera”) into the jack marked “9V DC”
and plug the adapter into an electrical outlet.
When using an AC adapter, we suggest you also keep batteries in at all times as the camera
will automatically convert from AC to battery power during a power outage. However, if you do
not keep batteries in the units, it will operate on just AC power.
For battery power, the camera requires six AA alkaline or rechargeable batteries. Rechargeable
batteries can be used, however, batteries will NOT be recharged in the camera by plugging in
the AC adapter. If you are using rechargeable batteries, they will have to be removed and
recharged by an external charger.
Remove the battery cover. Insert six AA alkaline or rechargeable batteries (not included)
matching positive (+) to positive (+) and negative (-) to negative (-) and replace the battery cover.
The battery life is approximately six to eight hours. Replace the batteries in the camera when
the Power Indicator Light turns orange.
Receiver
The receiver only works with an AC adapter. Insert the large AC adapter (labeled “Receiver”)
into the jack marked “12V DC” and plug the adapter into an electrical outlet. For long periods
of non-use, we suggest unplugging the AC adapter.

Using Your Monitor
1. Turn the camera and receiver on by sliding the Power switches to the ON positions.
The green Power Indicator on the camera will light up when it is on. One of the Channel
Indicators on the monitor will light up when it is on.
2. Make sure the switch on the camera is set to “camera.”
3. Rotate the camera head so it faces your baby. To install the camera on the wall, use the
mounting screws and anchors with the mounting template provided.
4. Tilt the receiver to the desired viewing position. To install the receiver on the wall, use the
mounting screw and anchor provided.
5. For daytime vision, place the camera up to ten feet from your baby making sure it is out
of reach.
6. For nighttime vision, place the camera no more than six feet from your baby making sure
it is out of reach. The camera has a built-in light sensor which will automatically turn on the
night vision feature when there is no light detected. Remember, when using the infrared
night vision, the image will only be in black and white.
7. Select the channel that gives you the best reception. Make sure both units are on the
same channel.

A and one to channel B. Change the channel on the receiver to determine which room
you want to monitor. You can also set the receiver to automatically scan between the two
cameras. Please refer to the Automatic Channel Scan section on page 7.

SPECIAL FEATURES
Receiver LCD Power Option
You can turn the screen of the receiver off and still maintain the sound monitor function.
To use this function, slide the switch on the receiver to the LCD OFF position. The use of
this feature will allow you to still hear your baby.
Automatic Infrared Night Vision
The infrared night vision function is designed to allow the camera to pick up images even
when the room is dark. Using the built-in light sensor, the camera will automatically convert
to night vision when the level of light is low. Remember, when using infrared night vision,
the image will be in black and white.
Automatic Channel Scan
Your monitor can operate with two cameras. The Automatic Channel Scan function lets you
automatically scan between both channels if two cameras are being used at the same time.
(Please call us at 1-800-430-0222 to find out where you can purchase an additional camera.)
To activate this feature, set one camera to channel A and the other to channel B. Turn on the
Automatic Channel Scan function by pressing the Channel Selection button on the receiver
until the Auto Scan Indicator lights up. When this feature is on, the receiver will scan through
the two channels automatically. It will stop at each channel and display the image and monitor
the sounds from each camera for approximately five seconds. To deactivate the auto scan
feature, press the Channel Selection button again.
Brightness, Contrast, and Color Adjustment
You can adjust the brightness, contrast, and color of the picture on your screen. When you
turn on your receiver, it automatically defaults to the Brightness Control mode and you can
adjust the brightness of the picture simply by using the up and down buttons. If you want
7

to adjust the contrast or the color of the picture, please follow the instructions below.
Contrast Control: To adjust the contrast of the picture, turn the receiver off. Then, while
holding down the up button on the receiver, turn the receiver back on. Release the button
and use the up and down buttons to adjust the contrast as necessary.
Color Control: To adjust the color of the picture, turn the receiver off. Then, while holding
down the down button on the receiver, turn the receiver back on. Release the button and
use the up and down buttons to adjust the color as necessary.
Brightness Control: To revert to Brightness Control, simply turn the receiver off and then on
again without depressing any buttons. Once the receiver is back on, you may use the up
and down buttons to adjust the brightness.

your own television with the cable provided. Connect the black end of the AV cable to the
AV output jack on the receiver and the other end to the AV input jacks on your television,
DVD player or VCR. If your television has a picture-in-picture feature, you can use this to
monitor your baby while watching television. If you connect the cable to your VCR, you can
also record your baby.
Audio/Visual Input Link
This feature allows you to watch a DVD or VHS on your receiver. Connect the camera to your
own DVD player or VCR with the cable provided. Connect the black end of the AV cable to the
AV input jack on the camera and the other end to the AV output jacks on your DVD player or
VCR. Slide the switch on the right side of the camera to “AV.”

INSTRUCCIONES
La Cámara
Usted puede suministrar energía tanto a la cámara con un adaptador de CA o baterías. Para
largos períodos sin uso, le sugerimos retirar las baterías y desconectar los adaptadores de CA.
Para alimentación AC, inserte el pequeño adaptador AC (marcado con la etiqueta “Camera”)
en el enchufe marcado “9V DC” y conecte el adaptador en un tomacorriente eléctrico.
Cuando use un adaptador de CA, le sugerimos que también mantenga las baterías en todo
momento debido a que las unidades convertirán la energía de CA a energía de baterías
durante un apagón. Sin embargo, si no mantiene las baterías en las unidades, el monitor sólo
funcionará con energía de CA.
Para energía de la batería, la cámara requiere seis baterías alcalinas o recargables AA. Las
baterías recargables pueden usarse en la cámara, sin embargo, las baterías no se recargarán
en la cámara cuando se use el adaptador de CA. Si está usando baterías recargables, tendrán
que retirarse y recargarse por un cargador externo.
Retire las tapas de las baterías con un destornillador. Inserte seis baterías alcalinas o recar-
gables AA (no incluidas) en la cámara que corresponden a positivo (+) con positivo (+) y
negativo (-) con negativo (-). Reemplace las tapas de las baterías.
La vida de la batería es de aproximadamente seis a ocho horas. Reemplace las baterías en la
cámara cuando el indicador de energía se torne de color naranja.
El Receptor
El receptor sólo funciona con un adaptador CA. Inserte el adaptador CA grande (marcado
con la etiqueta “Receiver”) en el enchufe marcado “12V DC” y conecte el adaptador en un
tomacorriente eléctrico. Para largos períodos sin uso, le sugerimos desconectar el adaptador
de CA.

rarse que sea inalcanzable. La cámara tiene un sensor de luz incorporado que activará
automáticamente la función de visión nocturna cuando no se detecte luz. Recuerde que
cuando se use la visión nocturna infrarroja, la imagen sólo se verá en blanco y negro.
7. Seleccione el canal que le dé la mejor recepción. Asegúrese que ambas unidades estén
en el mismo canal.
8. Si tiene dos cámaras, podrá monitorear dos habitaciones diferentes. Sitúe una cámara
en el canal A y la otra en el canal B. Cambie el canal en el receptor para determinar
qué habitación desea monitorear. También podrá configurar el receptor para que realice
la exploración automáticamente entre las dos cámaras. Por favor consulte la sección
Autoexploración de Canales en la página 21.
