Setup
- Unpack Components: Carefully remove all items from the packaging: wireless camera, wireless receiver, 2 power adapters, 2 RCA A/V cables, 1 coaxial cable, and this owner's manual.
- Power the Camera: Connect one AC/DC adapter to the wireless camera. Alternatively, the camera can be powered by four AA batteries (not included) for portable use. Ensure batteries are inserted with correct polarity.
- Power the Receiver: Connect the second AC/DC adapter to the wireless receiver.
- Connect Receiver to Display: Use the provided RCA A/V cable to connect the receiver's video output to a TV or VCR's video input. Ensure the correct input source is selected on your display device.
- Positioning the Camera: Place the camera in the desired monitoring location. For optimal signal reception, ensure a clear line of sight between the camera and the receiver. The system supports signal transmission up to 300 feet in open areas.
- System Expansion: The receiver can accept signals from up to four cameras simultaneously. Additional Lorex 2.4 GHz wireless cameras can be purchased separately and integrated into the system.
Operating Instructions
- Viewing Footage: Once the receiver is connected to your TV or VCR and powered on, the camera's video feed will appear on your display.
- Autoscan Feature: If multiple cameras are connected, the receiver can automatically cycle through the camera feeds. Refer to the receiver's controls for activating the autoscan function.
- Single Camera View: To view a single camera's feed in full-screen, use the receiver's controls to select the desired camera channel.
- Listen-in Audio: The camera features a built-in electronic condenser microphone. Audio from the camera's vicinity will be transmitted to the receiver and output through your display device's speakers.
Maintenance
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the camera and receiver surfaces. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosol sprays directly on the units.
- Battery Replacement: If using AA batteries for the camera, replace them when the battery indicator (if present) shows low power or when the camera ceases to function. Ensure proper battery type and polarity.
- Environmental Considerations: The camera's CMOS sensor can be permanently damaged by prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or strong halogen light. Avoid mounting or pointing the camera directly at the sun or other intense light sources. The system is primarily designed for indoor use.
- Operating Temperature: The camera and receiver are designed to operate within a temperature range of -10 to 50 degrees Celsius (14 to 122 degrees Fahrenheit).
Troubleshooting
- No Video Signal:
- Ensure both the camera and receiver are powered on and their respective AC/DC adapters are securely connected.
- Check the RCA A/V cable connection between the receiver and your display device.
- Verify that your TV or VCR is set to the correct input source (e.g., AV1, Video 1).
- Reduce the distance between the camera and receiver, or clear any obstructions that might be blocking the wireless signal.
- If using batteries in the camera, check if they need replacement.
- Poor Video Quality/Interference:
- Wireless interference from other 2.4 GHz devices (Wi-Fi routers, cordless phones) can affect signal quality. Try repositioning the camera or receiver.
- Ensure a clear line of sight between the camera and receiver. Walls and other structures can degrade signal strength.
- No Audio:
- Confirm the camera's microphone is not obstructed.
- Check the audio connection of the RCA A/V cable to your display device.
- Increase the volume on your TV or VCR.

Technical Feature Explanations:
- Lux Rating: Measures a camera's sensitivity to light. A lower Lux value indicates better performance in low-light conditions. The SG6350's 2 Lux rating allows for acceptable picture quality in dimly lit environments.
- Horizontal TVL (TV Lines): Represents the horizontal resolution of the camera. Higher TVL values indicate a sharper image. 380 TVL provides a clear color picture.
- CMOS Sensor: Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor sensors are cost-effective and energy-efficient, providing good image quality for general surveillance.
