Safety Instructions
-
This product is designed for moderate climates. Do not
use in high humidity, dusty, or dirty environments. The
camera panel should be mounted with its rain hood
away from pouring water. Never use a pressure washer
near the camera panel. Trim back vegetation around
the camera panel to avoid dripping and lens abrasion.
Facing extreme sunlight will reduce picture quality.
Screens should be wall mounted on the bracket
provided. Do not allow curtains or clothing to cover the
ventilation holes behind the screen. Do not allow the
screen to operate near steam, moisture, naked flames
or extreme heat as found in some kitchens areas or in
bathrooms. Avoid extremely bright locations which may
affect the screen image.
Never disassemble components. Do not overload
power sockets, and remove the power if the system is
not to be used for long periods. Do not drop or apply
physical shocks. Do not expose units to acid oxides,
ammonia, or any other harmful substances.
Some electrical goods such as microwave ovens, TVs,
computer equipment, large electric motors or radio
transmitters may interfere with the screen signals. Keep
a clear distance from these devices if interference is
experienced.

Cables required
-
Only three cables are needed for the standard set
without an electric lock. Cabling to the electric lock
requires a further two cables. Electric gate control
panels need only one extra cable because there is no
lock supply.
The mains cable must be 240V rated, at least 3A
capacity. Though a 13A socket is shown, the power
supply could be wired directly into a fused outlet. Only
competent persons are allowed to work in some areas.
All other cables are low voltage rated. The screen to
camera panel is the longest low voltage run and needs
four cores. The other runs tend to be shorter, so it is
expedient to use the same four core cable for these
runs too.
Cables may run outdoors. If they do, choose an
outdoor rated cable that is non-porous and resistant to
UV light. The cable specifications are printed in a
technical table in the appendix. Screened cables are
necessary in industrial environments, but seldom
needed in homes. Thin flexible cable is much easier to
connect into the camera panel and the screen.
Cat.5 is commonly available and inexpensive, but must
be used with care. The V wire must not be doubled up
or paired with any other used core. Cut its pair off at
each end of the cable. Uses a pair doubled up for the B
wire, and another pair doubled up for the G wire. The A
wire does not need doubling.

Installing the screen
-
1. Cable running
The cable needs to be run before the screen or camera
panel are mounted. Do not run the cables near large
electric motors, radio equipment which can radiate
interference, or environmental hazards such as fires.
Screened cables reduce interference where radiation
sources cannot be avoided.
2. 4 core connector
A pre-wired four core connector with short cables is
provided for the screen. An area is required behind the
screen to connect this wire assembly to the camera
cable. Silicon filled ‘jelly’ connectors are recommended.
A = Blue G = Black B = Red V = Yellow
3. Power connector
Connect the 2 core power cable from the power supply
to the green terminal block behind the screen. Be sure
to connect the correct way round or it may be damaged.
4. Fix the mounting plate
Place the mounting plate over the top of the connection
area, passing the wire assembly through the middle of
the plate. Secure with four appropriate screws.
5. Hang the screen
Carefully place the screen on the four mounting bracket
hooks. Then gently push the screen upwards to engage
the hooks in the monitor’s slots. Secure with two the
screws provided

2.4
Installing the Camera Panel
-
1. Cable running
The cable needs to be run before the camera panel is
mounted. The recommended height for a camera is
1.6m to suit average height. The cable must emerge
from the wall 7cm below the camera height and 2cm to
the left.
If you are fitting an electric lock, or wiring to an electric
gate control box, there will be at least one extra wire.
2. Mounting the rain hood
Slide the rain hood over the wires. Mark the mounting
hole positions. Drill and fix the rain hood to the wall.
Take the face plate off the camera. Pass all the wires
through the back plate of the camera panel. Mark the
two mounting hole positions, central top and bottom.
Drill & fix the back plate to the wall inside the rain hood.
3. Connections
Follow the wiring diagram in the appendix. There is little
space under the camera cover to coil extra wire, yet
cutting cable exactly to length is a risk. We recommend
making connections to the panel, then to pull all excess
cable through the wall where it can be coiled neatly. Fix
the camera cover on after the cables are secure.
