SETTING UP AT THE BARN: AUDIO MOD SETUP

 

The audio mod box adds sound to your cowcam system.  To install the audio mod, 
disconnect the camera cable from the camera and connect it to one side of the   
audio mod box, then connect the camera to the other side of the audio mod box.

 

SETTING UP AT THE BARN: HIGH GAIN PANEL           

ANTENNA SETUP

 

Setting up the high gain panel antenna at the barn is the same process as setting it up 
at the house.  The only difference is you plug the antenna cable into the 5.8ghz      
antenna port of the transmitter instead of the receiver.  Please see the previous    
section on panel antenna setup for full installation instructions (

page 14

).  Have the 

antenna facing the receiver at the house.
