INSTALLATION  
General Placement Considerations  
The cameras included with your monitor are weatherproof and have an IP65 weather  
rating. Water can be sprayed on them and they will still work; however, the cameras cannot  
be submerged underwater.  
Although the cameras can be exposed directly to the rain, it is recommended that, if they  
are used outdoors, they be mounted under some type of cover like a patio overhang or  
eave. As rainwater drops start to dry on the camera glass, it can create spots that will reflect  
the light from the infrared LEDs used for night vision, thus causing lower quality video.  
Also, as dust, grime, and cobwebs accumulate on the camera glass, they can reflect light  
from the infrared LED and might lower video quality. Periodically clean the lens glass with a  
soft cloth.  
Consider the following when placing cameras:  
7
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Clear line of sight video transmission distance is up to 500 ft.  
Walls, especially brick and concrete, shorten the transmission distance.  
Placement next to windows allows better transmission.  
Avoid having a direct light source in view of the camera. This includes street lights,  
ceiling or floor lamps, spotlights in the driveway, etc.  
The cameras are equipped with built-in infra-red LEDs so you can use night vision for  
24-hour surveillance. The LEDs automatically activate at night and the picture viewed  
turns to black and white. The night viewing range is up to 40 ft. Avoid pointing the  
camera lens directly at clear glass; the night vision LEDs will cause a blurred image.  
Optimized motion detection range is up to 40 ft. The farther away an object is, the less  
accurate the motion detection.  
Avoid pointing the camera directly at any bushes, tree branches, or moving objects  
that might naturally move due to winds. Otherwise, the motion detection feature may  
record unnecessarily.  
Out of Range displays when the monitor and camera are too far apart. Reposition the  
equipment.  
A Low Battery icon displays when you need to recharge the battery.  
Installing Your Monitor  
Out of the box, your monitor has enough power to be used when you place and install the  
cameras. You can check the camera placement and angle before you physically screw the  
camera stands into place.  
After you have installed the cameras and set up the monitor, plug the AC adapter power  
output cable into the 5V POWER input of the cradle or monitor. Plug the power plug into a  
wall outlet or surge protector.  
If you are powering the monitor through the cradle, insert the monitor into the  
cradle at this point. Press firmly to ensure a good connection. The LED on the side  
panel turns red to indicate charging is in progress. The  
icon displays.  
Installing the Camera  
You can mount the camera with the stand on the bottom (for a flat surface such as a table-  
top), on the side (for a wall), or on the top (for the ceiling). When you are positioning the  
camera, you might want to bring the monitor along; it’s much easier to get the camera into  
the right position when you have the monitor handy.  
Mount the Camera Base  
The following tools are required:  
Electric Drill  
5mm Drill Bit  
No. 2 Phillips Screwdriver

MAINTAINING YOUR SYSTEM  
MONITOR  
As you use your monitor, keep the screen clean by wiping it with a microfiber cloth to  
remove fingerprints, dust, etc.

capability. The infrared light reflects off of the dust and grime, limiting the camera’s  
“vision.” Use a microfiber cloth to regularly clean the cameras or when night vision video is  
cloudy or unclear.
