Please read before you start:

Always use discretion when installing CCTV surveillance equipment especially

when there is perceived policy. Enquire regarding local regulations applicable

to the lawful installation of video recording/surveillance. Third party consent

may be required.

INTRODUCTION Section 1

The Response Colour LCD Screen allows surveillance of any vulnerable places or areas

you wish to monitor. It allows you to connect both wired and wireless cameras (operating

on the 2.4GHz transmission frequency). You can connect up to 2 wired cameras and up

to 3 wireless cameras for surveillance.

The screen can also be used to view video and hear audio output from devices such as

DVD players, camcorders, etc, using any of the the 2 wired inputs via the supplied adaptors.

IMPORTANT:

Other devices transmitting on the 2.4GHz frequency may be picked up by this monitor on

any wireless channel. If this is experienced investigate the cause of interference. Typical

examples of devices operating on this frequency around the home can include wireless

routers or cordless phones. Avoid placing the LCD screen near to any potential source of

RF interference, a microwave oven or a metal radiator.

For best transmission, avoid installations where there are very thick walls or major

obstructions between the wireless camera and LCD screen.

SAFETY AND INSTALLATION TIPS:

The screen is intended for internal use only.

The Remote Control is supplied fitted with a CR2025 Lithium coin cell battery. If it is

removed, do not place in your mouth as this could impair your health. Keep these cells

out of reach from young children as they are a choking hazard.

The battery should not be exposed to excessive heat as this could reduce the battery’s life.

Damage to the unit may occur if the battery is replaced incorrectly according to the polarity

of the battery terminals in the Remote. Replace only with the same or equivalent type.

Do not attempt to open the unit with the power adaptor plug connected to avoid any risk

of personal injury. When installing any wired/wireless CCTV camera(s), always follow the

manufacturer’s advice when using power tools and wear suitable protective equipment

(e.g. safety goggles) when drilling holes, etc. Before drilling holes through walls check for

hidden electricity cables and water pipes. The use of a cable/pipe detector is advisable.

When installing the camera(s), it is advisable to use cable conduit to protect any

video/power extension cables from being exposed externally and to prevent/reduce the

chances of the cables being tampered. After drilling any hole though an external wall for

a cable, ensure the hole is sealed up around the cable using a sealant to prevent drafts.

There are no user serviceable parts inside. Refer servicing to qualified service personnel.
