Overview

Congratulations on your purchase of Swann’s high-resolution intercom, the 

DB-

815

 which combines a 7” high quality LCD screen with vivid color with a sleek, 

damage resistant, rust-proof aluminum outdoor intercom unit with a discreet built-
in color camera. At night, the camera utilizes its built-in infrared LEDs to provide 
limited night-vision, so you can see who’s there in the dark!

Additionally, the DB-815 can be used to control both an electronic door lock and 
an electrically operated outdoor gate, giving you the combined benefit of security 
and convenience. 

Like any device which requires permanent installation into your home, installing the 
DB-815 can be a somewhat complex task which requires an intermediate knowledge 
of electrical wiring. We strongly suggest that anyone not familiar with electrical 
wiring not attempt to install the DB-815 themselves – hire a professional. 

General Guidelines: Read Before Attempting Installation

Keep the LCD Indoor Unit away from high temperatures, such as near an oven 

1. 

or in direct sunlight, and high humidity, such as bathrooms and greenhouses, 
as both can easily damage the delicate LCD Unit.
Do not install the LCD Indoor Unit close to a television – the signals the TV and 

2. 

the Intercom use to function can interfere with one another.
Clean the LCD Unit using a soft cloth – there are many specialized LCD cleaning 

3. 

cloths available. Do not use liquids or solvents of any kind.
Do not subject either the indoor or outdoor units to sudden shocks, such as 

4. 

being struck or dropped.
Exercise caution when placing the outdoor unit that the camera will not be 

5. 

exposed to direct sunlight – this will make images very hard to distinguish, 
and eventually damage the Unit. Remember that the position of the sun varies 
throughout the day and year.

Most importantly: 

If you are not experienced with electrical wiring, do not attempt to install 

the cable through your walls/ceiling yourself - hire a professional!
