Wireless Receiver 2. Wireless Receiver 2 1 3 1 Removable Antennas (SMA Type): Pre-attached to the receiver. 2 Channel Indicator LEDs: Glow green to indicate which channel is selected for pairing. 3 Pairing Button: For details, see “Pairing Cameras” on page 8. 4 DC Power: Connect power adapter to power on the receiver. 5 Termination Cable: Includes 2 BNC video output cables to connect cameras to a DVR. 6 Antenna Jacks: One on each side of the receiver.
Wireless Camera 3. Wireless Camera 1 2 3 4 1 Removable Antenna (SMA Type): Pre-attached to the back of camera. 2 Camera Stand 3 DC Power: Connect power adapter to power on the camera. 4 Pairing Button: For details, see “Pairing Cameras” on page 8. 5 Antenna Jack 5 ATTENTION - This camera includes an Auto Mechanical IR Cut Filter. When the camera changes between Day/Night viewing modes, an audible clicking noise may be heard from the camera.
Installing the Camera 4. Installing the Camera Cameras are suitable for outdoor installation. Installation in a sheltered location is recommended. For example, install under shelter protected from the elements, such as beneath roof eaves. The diagram to the right shows an example of an ideal location for outdoor placement. 4.
Installing the Camera 4.2 Mounting Positions You may mount your cameras on a wall, ceiling, or counter. See the images below for recommended configurations of the camera stand and antenna. Wall Ceiling Counter NOTE: For ceiling installation, position the antenna as high as the ceiling allows. See the "Ceiling" mounting position in the figure above. 4.
Installing the Camera 2 Loosen the thumbscrews (1, 2) and the adjustment ring (3) by turning them counter clockwise. 1 2 3 3 Adjust the angle of the cameras until the desired view is set. Tighten the thumbscrews and the adjustment ring to secure each camera’s position. 4 Connect the power cable from the cameras to the weatherproof power connector. Plug the power adapter into a power outlet or surge protector. NOTE: Power cables are only weatherproof when fully inserted at the connection point.
Installing the Wireless Receiver 5. Installing the Wireless Receiver Before powering on the receiver, make sure to first connect and power on the cameras. This will ensure a proper connection. 1 Connect the BNC cables labelled CAM1 and CAM2 to your DVR. Channel Indicator LED’s 2 Connect the power cable to the power adapter. Plug the power adapter into a power outlet or surge protector. 3 Place the receiver in a place that will have clear reception to your cameras1.
Pairing Cameras 6. Pairing Cameras IMPORTANT The cameras and the receiver have already been paired out of the box, which means that they are exclusively communicating with each other. If for some reason the pairing is lost, follow these steps to pair the cameras and receiver. To pair the cameras to the receiver: 1 Make sure that the cameras and receiver are both powered up and all antennas are properly attached. 2 Press the Pair button on the receiver to toggle between channels.

Appendix B: Frequently Asked Questions 8. Appendix B: Frequently Asked Questions 8.1 Wired vs. Wireless Cameras A wired camera has a video cable that transmits the video signal from the camera to a recording or viewing device. A wireless camera does not use a video cable. Instead, it wirelessly transmits the video signal to a wireless receiver that is connected to your DVR. Wireless cameras do not require video cabling to be run between the camera and the DVR, which reduces installation time and cost. 8.
Appendix B: Frequently Asked Questions Signal Reduction Through Materials Signal strength decreases as it passes through different types of material. The table below shows how signals become reduced when passing through different materials: Material Signal Reduction (%) Plaster & Wood 10 - 30% Brick 30 - 50% Concrete Cinder Blocks 50 - 70% Metal & Metal Cladding 70 - 90% NOTE: Signals that must pass through wet or moist materials (e.g. shrubs and trees) may be significantly reduced.
Appendix C: Troubleshooting 9. Appendix C: Troubleshooting If you have problems with your system, there is often a quick and simple solution. Please try the following: Problem 12 Solution There is no picture from the camera(s) • Make sure that the camera is plugged into a power outlet and that the power adapter is plugged in properly. • Make sure receiver is plugged into a power outlet. • Move the camera closer to the receiver. • Make sure video output cables are connected to your DVR.
Appendix D: Extending Wireless Signal Range 10. Appendix D: Extending Wireless Signal Range DISCLAIMER: Certain accessories are not available in all markets. There are several ways to boost your wireless signal as well as options to help you extend the range of the wireless signal. Clear Line-of-Sight You should always try to ensure there is a clear line-of-sight between the camera and the receiver.
Appendix D: Extending Wireless Signal Range 2.4 GHZ Directional Wireless Panel Antenna Use the 2.4GHz Directional Wireless Panel Antenna (model #: ACCANTD9) to focus a wireless signal onto one specific camera in order to increase the range of transmission (clear line-of-sight between the camera and the antenna is required). A 20ft extension cable is included to help to properly position the antenna.
