TWO CAMERAS OPERATION This 900MHz Wireless Color Camera System can support 2 cameras. Additional camera is sold separately. When using 2 cameras, please set the 2 cameras to different channels, accordingly the two dip switches located on the back of the receiver should be both switched on.
3OPERATING THE SYSTEM The system supports two cameras. Users can switch from one camera to the other one manually or automatically by pressing the buttons on the top panel of the receiver. Be sure that the both dip switches in the receiver should be switched on. MANUAL MODE/// To select one of the two channels manually, press the MANUAL button on the top panel of the receiver. The receiver will switch to a different channel (CAM1, CAM2) each time when the MANUAL button is pressed. When you select a channel with an activated camera, the video will appear on TV screen. AUTO MODE/// To have the receiver automatically switch between the 2 channels, press the AUTO button on the top panel of the receiver. The receiver will continuously scan through both channels which are on. The TV screen will display the picture from one camera to the other. The dwell time (time taken to switch between cameras) is preset to 4 seconds and can be adjusted between 2-30 seconds. To adjust the dwell time, press both the AUTO and MANUAL button simultaneously. Each sound of the receiver increases the dwell time by one second. And the dwell time equals to the number of sound added to one second.
