Locating your System-
When choosing the best location for the placement of the
camera and monitor, it is best to avoid any sources of possible RF
interference such as wireless routers. Proximity—within ~10 Ft.—
to these and other RF interference sources may inhibit the proper
functioning of the receiver, and/or the wireless router.
The digital wireless signal can easily pass through your home’s

interior walls, but the signal may be refl ected by power wires or
plumbing inside those walls. Usually a slight adjustment to the
position of the monitor and/or camera will improve reception.

Other Potential Sources of RF Interference:
plumbing masonry electrical

conduit

ductwork

windows

metal doors & frames

audio/video/computer RF devices

The Digital Wireless monitor system has a private and secure
2.4GHz connection. Only cameras that have been directly paired
with the monitor can be viewed.
