INSTALLATION

General Placement Considerations
The camera can be placed on a shelf or other flat surfaces. 

• The camera included is NOT weatherproof; it is an indoor camera.
• The clearest line of sight between the camera and the monitor is best. Walls, especially brick and concrete, can affect connection 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.
• Do not cover or obstruct the inlet holes for the temperature sensors and leave the sensor horizontal for a more accurate reading. The temperature reading is for reference only and there may be some variance between the actual temperature and the temperature reading.

Powering the Camera

1. Insert one end of the DC cable into the DC port on the camera (at the back of the camera).

2. Connect the other end of the DC cable to the DC power adaptor.

3. Connect the DC power adaptor to a 240-volt AC (standard indoor) power outlet.

4. Switch on the plug and allow the camera to power up. The pairing indicator will flash momentarily.

Powering the Monitor

1. Place the monitor in a location with clear reception from your camera(s).

2. If you are using the monitor as a stand-alone unit, flip out the stand on the back of the monitor and extend the antenna.

3. Insert one end of the DC cable into the DC port on the side of the monitor.

4. Connect the other end of the DC cable to the DC power adaptor.

5. Connect the DC power adaptor to a 240-volt AC (standard indoor) power outlet.

6. Press and hold the POWER button 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 charging cable from the monitor during the initial charge process. After the initial charge, recharge the monitor as needed.

7. Out-of-range displays until you turn on the camera.
   

You can install additional cameras (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.
