1. Remove your monitor from the box for testing your cameras and cables. You can use a TV
set with a video input if you don’t have a monitor. Plug your monitor into a 110-120 AC power
source. Do not mistake the antenna input on the TV for a
VIDEO INPUT
. Monitors and TV’s
have video inputs clearly marked. The TV RCA input will look some what like the image
below (labeled
VIDEO INPUT
). This type of input connector is called an
RCA
female input
jack.
2. Remove your cameras and camera power supplies from the box. Make sure you’re using
power supplies that have a
REGULATED POWER SUPPLY 12 VOLT OUTPUT
(very
important).
Most power supplies have a label on the back that will tell you the type of output
the power supply is capable of producing. If there is no label, DO NOT USE THE POWER
SUPPLY.
