Using the Menus
When you open the Main Menu, you will see the following
four categories, each containing several options. Here’s a
quick rundown of what you’ll see.
Pairing
This is where you pair cameras with channels in the receiver.
See page 7 for more details.
Record
Auto-Delete:• Whilst Auto-Delete is turned on, and the
SD card is full, the receiver will automatically delete the
oldest event to have space to record a new event. If
Auto-Delete is off and the SD card fi lls up, the receiver
will no longer record.
Alarm Record Time:• The amount of time after a
motion/alarm event that the receiver will continue to
record for. You can set this time between 3 seconds
and 10 minutes.
Time Stamp:• When Time Stamp is set to on the time
and date of a recording will be overlaid on the video.
We suggest leaving this set to on, as recording the
time and date of an event typically makes the footage
more useful.
Format:• Formats the SD card in the receiver. Formatting
removes all data and re-writes the fi le allocation table.
Only use this option if the SD card seems incompatible
with the receiver, and/or you really want all data on
the card to be erased.
Playback:• Enter playback mode (see pages 14 - 15).
Schedule
You can set a start and end time for the period that •
you want the receiver to record each day.
Only one recording period can be defi ned each day. •
For the duration of the programmed schedule, the
receiver will record continuously, regardless of whether
there is movement in the camera’s line of sight.
For more information about Scheduled Recording, see •
page 11.
Setting
Here you can access and set many of the settings in the
receiver. You’ll be able to adjust the date and time, your
display settings, and alarm settings. For more details, see
pages 12 - 13.

Resolution
Resolution refers to how many pixels (individual dots which together make up
an image) the receiver will record. There are two settings: low and high. High
resolution records at VGA quality (640 x 480 pixels) and is the suggested setting.
Alarm
The receiver can emit a high pitched alarm tone when it detects movement. This is
great if you’re using the ADW-400 to monitor an area in which there would be no
frequent movement, but could very quickly become annoying if monitoring a main
door or hallway. The alarm can be set to sound for 5 or 10 seconds, or not at all.
Audio
Here you can turn the audio function of the receiver on and off. This operates in
the same manner as the MUTE button on the receiver.
Display Setup
You can select your video standard here, either PAL or NTSC. Only change this if
the image on your TV/monitor is black and white or distorted.
Note: PAL is used in Western Europe and Australia, NTSC is used in North America
and Japan.
Version
This will display information about the receiver and the cameras you have attached
to your system. Specifi cally, this screen will tell you what version of the fi rmware/
hardware they are running. There is little that you’ll be able to do with this
information, and nothing here is adjustable. The main reason you would access
this window is if you contact our technical support team and they need to know
what version of the receiver and camera(s) you are using.
