PRE-INSTALLATION SETUP
Before fi xing the door camera in place, set up and test
the system as follows:
Install the batteries in the door camera
Note: The door camera has a built in tamper switch to help
prevent theft. Once the batteries have been inserted, the
confi dence light fl ashes and the tamper alert sounds on the
receiver.
1. Remove the two screws at the base of the camera
unit and unhook and release the camera base,
pulling it away from the lower end fi rst.

Note: removing the cover also provides access to the
nameplate, so now is a good time to write your name or
other information. To use the nameplate, pull the end out
from the side of the battery compartment, add your text at
the end of the strip and carefully push it back into the slot.
2. Insert six AA-size alkaline batteries in the battery
compartment at the back of the door camera – as
in the following diagram. Follow the plus (
+
) and
minus (
–
) signs on the diagram inside the battery
compartment. Never mix old and new batteries.
3. Refi t the camera base and insert the screws to stop
the tamper alert from sounding.

Note: there is an option to power the door camera using an
8V door chime transformer. See ‘Door Camera Transformer
option’ at the end of this section for details.
Charge the receiver batteries
1. Remove the battery isolating tab at the rear of the
portable receiver.
2. Place the receiver onto the charging base and plug
the charging base into a suitable mains socket.
The battery indicator fl ashes slowly if this is the fi rst
time the unit has been powered up; the chime tunes
play once the batteries have enough power.
Before the next step, leave the unit to charge for at
least three hours so that the batteries have enough
power for the LCD screen. The receiver takes about 12
hours to be fully charged.
Note that the charging base and rear of the receiver will
get warm in use: this is normal.
