Three
zones of your home can be watched with this vivid XCam2 Wireless
COLOR 3-Camera System! All three of the wireless cameras broadcast
live to the same video receiver in full color. This lets you
view what your cameras see on the same TV. Keep an eye on the
kids room and then switch to the front door view so that you
can see who is knocking on your door. A remote control is included
so that you can switch camera views. It's just like changing
channels on your television! |

This inexpensive
home security system is easy to use and there are no codes
to remember. Just turn the system on or off by punching a
button. You can use the wireless sensors in order to protect
your rooms, windows and doors and the wireless sensors can
be expanded so that you can cover up to 16-zones.
This home
security system works in three ways. Sirens and flashing lights
deter intruders and alert occupants that there is a possible
breach in security.
The phone
alert function calls up to 4 people, including you! You can
have one of the phone numbers set to your cell phone, another
to a neighbor, one to a close friend or relative, etc. In
turn, they can call the police. It is this function that allows
you to have a 'monitored' home security system without paying
for any monthly fees.

Installing
X10 Security Systems and Cameras
Basic Camera
Setup Instructions - Connect the Security Camera to its power
supply and plug it into a power outlet. Connect the Video Receiver
to its power supply and plug it into a power outlet. Connect the
Video Receiver to your TV. Turn the Video Receiver on. Select the
proper video input on your TV (or try channel 0 and then channel
down). That's it!
Multiple Camera
Setup Instructions - Connect the first camera to its power supply
and plug it into a wall outlet. Then plug the wireless video receiver
into a wall outlet. Connect the video receiver to your TV and turn
the TV on. Select your TV’s video input (or try channel 0 and then
Channel Down). The camera’s picture should appear.
Plug in the transceiver
and extend the antenna. Install batteries in the remote control.
Press 1 OFF to turn the first camera off. Turn the number dial on
the second camera’s power supply to ‘2.’ Then you need to plug in
the 2nd camera. It will appear on your TV. Press 1 ON to switch
to camera 1, and 2 ON to go back to camera 2. If you have any trouble
getting your system to work, follow each step again and check each
connection. Try plugging the power supplies in different wall outlets,
too.
Basic Security
System Setup Instructions - Choose a location for the Security
Console which is as central as possible in the house, while providing
access to a modular telephone jack and an AC outlet. The console
may be placed on a shelf or table, or may be fixed to a wall using
the optional mounting bracket and screws.
Plan the location
of the Door/Window Sensors and Motion Detectors so that the RF path
which runs in a straight line from sensor to console is not obstructed
by large metal objects such as a refrigerators or freezers, and
passes through as few walls as possible. Door/Window Sensors may
be hidden behind drapes for a more discreet installation.
Before installing
the system, leave the console unplugged for two minutes without
its backup battery installed. Make sure all the windows and doors
(with sensors) are closed. Open the door on each Door/Window Sensor,
hold down the TEST button for 2 seconds, and release. Plug the console
in and set its slider switch to "Install." Push the "Arm" or "Arm
away" button on each remote control--the console will chime as each
remote is registered.
Then, go to each
sensor in turn, starting with whichever sensor you want to be Zone
1. If it is a door/window sensor open and close the door or window;
the LED on the sensor should blink. Walk in front of the motion
sensors until you see their LEDs blink. When you see the LEDs blink
you will again hear the console chime. It should chime only once
for each sensor. After all sensors/zones and remotes have been installed,
go back to the console. Confirm that only one zone is lit up for
each sensor installed. If there is just one zone per sensor, set
the slider switch to "Run1" and test the system.
