• Presence of reinforced concrete, steel doors or other metal construction materials between units.
• Places near strong radio sources such as broadcast stations or substations.

Avoid using the Handheld Monitor Unit in the following areas

• Close to a fire, thermal appliance or other source of extreme heat/cold.
• Within 10ft (3m) of a television, microwave oven, personal computer, wireless LAN equipment, wireless audio/visual equipment – the radio frequency waves emitted by these devices can affect operation.
• In direct sunlight.

PARTS IDENTIFICATION

CHOOSING LOCATION

The performance of the iVISION+ system is dependent on the radio frequency environment and distances between devices. Following materials may decrease the maximum transmission distance and may cause the Handheld Monitor Unit inability to respond to incoming signals.

• Metal barricades such as ,metal doors and shutters.
• Walls with aluminium foil insulation.
• Concrete or galvanized metal walls.

The effective communication range is around 300ft (100m) in an open air condition (line of sight). This range will be significantly reduced by the number and thickness of walls through which the signal is required to pass. Please keep to a minimum number of walls wherever possible.

Handheld Monitor Units use 2.4GHz radio frequency. Any electrical appliance may become a potential cause for malfunction. Please avoid using the Handheld Monitor Unit near microwave oven or any electrical devices with similar radio frequency.

INSTALLATION

Handheld Monitor Unit must be set on Charging Cradle to retain its power while iVISION+ system is not in operation. The Charging Cradle can either be free- standing on a horizontal surface or be mounted on a wall as described below.

POWERING THE UNIT

  CAUTION
Please use the included battery pack and a power adaptor only.
Do not disassemble or attempt to use alternative battery packs.

1. Connect Battery pack to the main unit.
   

2. Connect AC adapter to Charging Cradle

3. Press and hold “OFF” button to power on. Set the unit onto the cradle for charging.

PAIRING WITH OTHER iVISION+ DEVICES

NOTE: An additional Device DU, HU and GU must be paired to HU only:

One Handheld Monitor Unit (IVP-HU) must be configured to have a HOME ID*1 prior to paring up with other iVISION+ devices.

Handheld Monitor Unit bundled with Door Camera Unit already has a HOME ID set and paired to each other.

*1 HOME ID is an unique network identification protocol for iVISION+ system.
One Handheld Monitor Unit can issue the HOME ID and all other devices on the same system must be assigned the same HOME ID.

How to create HOME ID by a Handheld Monitor Unit

WARNING
Any pre-existing HOME ID set up will be cleared out with this procedure.

1. Press “OFF” and then press pairing button in the back of the unit once.
   The IVP-HU will be in a pairing mode.

2. Press the pairing button again and hold until the unit makes a beep sound.

3. Press “Left function key” on the front to confirm “CREATE.”

How to enroll HU, DU and GU to HU

1. Press pairing button twice in the back of IVP-HU .
   The unit will be in “PAIRING MODE”.

2. Proceed to “SCAN” by pressing “Left function key”. IVP-HU starts scanning for other devices for 60 seconds.

3. Prepare other iVISION+ device into their pairing mode. (REF as follows) When the device is ready, the new unit will be enrolled to the HOME ID and IVP-HU shows which device was connected.

4. If another device needs to be enrolled, re-enter “SCAN” by “Left Function key” and repeat the process.

IVP-DU: Door Camera Unit to HU

If not purchased in a bundle package, IVP-DU is in the pairing mode when powered up. IVP-DU beeps continuously when PUSH button is pressed.

Once IVP-DU is paired, HU shows “DU# CONNECTED”

IVP-HU: Handheld Monitor Unit to HU

If not purchased in a bundle package, IVP-HU is in the pairing mode when powered up. Choose “JOIN” by “Right function key” to enroll into an existing HOME ID. Once IVP-HU is paired, HU shows “HU# CONNECTED”.
If otherwise, follow the instruction 6-1 to create a new HOME ID. After an enrollment of new HU, reset a Time & Date on HU to reflect the setting onto the added HU unit.

IVP-GU: Gateway Chime Unit to HU

If not purchased in a bundle package, by the factory default, IVP-GU is in the pairing mode when powered up. IVP-GU beeps continuously and green/red LED blinks.
Press down both A and B buttons while powering up the Gateway Chime Unit to enter the pairing mode. Once IVP-GU is paired, HU shows “GW CONNECTED”.
