Setting Up the Equipment Set Up the Camera General Placement Guidelines The Uniden UDSC15 cameras included with your monitor are weatherproof and have an IP66 weather rating. Water can be sprayed on them and they will still work; however, the cameras cannot be submerged underwater. Although the cameras can be exposed directly to the rain, it is recommended that, if they are used outdoors, they be mounted under some type of cover like a patio overhang or eave.
•• Avoid pointing the camera directly at any bushes, tree branches, or moving objects that might naturally move due to winds. Otherwise, the motion detection feature may record unnecessarily. You can mount the camera with the stand on the bottom (on a flat surface such as a table-top), on the side (on a wall), or on the top (on the ceiling).
Attach the camera 1. For each camera, attach the camera bracket to the mounting screw. You can attach the stand to the top or the bottom of the camera as needed.Tighten it a few turns, then turn the camera to face the direction you want. 2. Tighten the camera brace up against the camera to secure it into place. 3. Unlock the mounting post by turning the wingnut to the left a few turns. 4. Set the mounting post to the correct angle, then tighten the wingnut until the post is locked into place.
4. Connect the other end of the adapter to a 120 volt AC (standard indoor) power outlet. 5. Press and hold the Power button on the top of the monitor for 1 - 2 seconds to power it up.
