Using the Camera—
Continued
4. With the System Power switch in the OFF position you can aim your camera
at the area you want to watch. Make sure you have the recorder switch in the ON
position and the Sony Night Shot camera switch in the ON position. If you are
using the external bullet camera, turn the Sony Night Shot camera switch to the
OFF position and move the System Power switch to the ON position. The exter-
nal bullet camera will come on when the system is activated by the key fob or
any of the sensors that are hooked up and ready to go.
*NOTE* If you are using the internal camera as your only video source, you
can still use the external camera cable for setting up the viewing angle of the
camera. Just use the RCA video connector on the external camera cable and
plug into the video adapter on the setup monitor. Unplug the external camera
cable from the case when finished.
It really is that simple. Try experimenting with different light levels, different
camera angles and different programming configurations BEFORE using on an
actual set. You’ll find that your level of frustration will be minimal if you’ve had
an opportunity to use the camera prior to depending on the camera for evidence.
Amazingly, most people don’t use the camera until it’s needed and then it be-
comes a crash course over the phone with our help line trying to work out the
bugs…..PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT!!
