| HOW TO RECEIVE WIRELESS AUDIO AND VIDEO ON YOUR TELEVISION | |
| Step 1. Make sure the Receiver ON/OFF switch is in the OFF position. Connect one end of the A/V jacks to the receiver. Make sure the yellow, red and white plugs match the yellow, red and white jacks on the receiver. |
|
| Step 2 Connect the other end of the Video/Audio jacks, which is the SCART connector, to the TV or VCR Video1 or Video2 input. Connect the jack plug of the mains adaptor to the socket at the rear of the receiver. Plug the mains adapter into a standard wall outlet and turn the receiver ON/OFF switch to the ON position.. |
 |
| Step 3. To view the picture from TeddyCam on your TV, select "video 1" or "video 2" or "auxiliary" input from your TV or remote control |
|
If your receiving TV is already connected to a VCR or other Audio/Video device you can connect the receiver to a spare SCART input socket on this equipment.
| If your receiving TV does not have a SCART input socket you will need to
get a RF-Modulator that will accept a SCART input - this can be purchased
from your local electronic store.
| Position the receiver in a convenient location and raise/adjust the
antenna (see section on "Orienting receiver for optimal
performance" on this web site)
| Adjust the volume control on the side of the receiver to an acceptable
level. | |
When you hear a noise from your child's room simply change channels on your television and watch your baby.
Orienting receiver for optimal performance
| TeddyCam should be placed on a flat, stable surface to prevent it from falling. |
| For optimal performance, the audio/video antenna on the receiver should be carefully oriented as described below. |
| For maximum operating range, try to minimize the number of obstacles (such as TV, other components, or furniture) between the TeddyCam and receiver units. In addition, try to place the units as high as possible to avoid any possible interference from people walking between the transmitter and the receiver. |
| TeddyCam broadcasts its high-quality audio and video using non-directional antennas. The 2.4GHz antenna on the receiver has been designed to pivot and have limited rotation in either clockwise or counterclockwise directions. |
Troubleshooting Problems and solutions
