Notes:
1.The extension cable must be a single stretch of cable between the DVR and
camera.
You cannot connect multiple extension cables to each other.
2.For cable runs above 300ft/92m(option 3),
you must connect the power adapter
directly to the camera,
rather than at the end of the extension cable.
3.Indicators that your cable run may be too long:
• Video is permanently black & white (even during day time)
• Video is unclear, soft, or distorted

Important safety instructions
1. Make sure product is fixed correctly and stable if fastened in place.
2. Do not operate if wires and terminals are exposed.
Before installing the cameras
Decide whether to run the cables through the wall /
ceiling (drilling required) or along the wall / ceilling.
If you run the cables along the wall / ceilling,
you must
run the cable through the cable notch on the base.
This will keep the camera base flush to the surface
when mounted.
To install the cameras
1. Set the camera in the desired mounting position and mark holes for screws
through the camera base.
2. Drill the holes,
then feed the cable through the mounting surface or cable notch.
NOTE:
Insert the included drywall anchors if installing the camera in drywall.
3. Mount the camera stand to the surface using the provided screws. Make sure all
screws are fastened tightly.
4. Set the position and angle of the camera.
Turn the adjustment ring to tighten / loosen
the stand connection.Adjust the camera’s
horizontal position.
Loosen lower screw with a philips head
screwdriver(not included) to adjust the
