5.3 Pairing with Your System

This camera is an expansion unit. It must be paired with a compatible Nedis digital wireless camera system (monitor/receiver) to function. Refer to your main system's manual for specific pairing instructions. Generally, the process involves:

1. Ensure both the camera and your main receiver are powered on.
2. Access the pairing function on your main receiver (e.g., via a menu option or a dedicated 'Pair' button).
3. Press the 'Pair' button on the back of the CSWL1C20CBK camera (refer to Figure 3).
4. The camera and receiver should establish a connection, indicated by a status light or on-screen message on your receiver.

6. Operating Instructions

6.1 Live View and Monitoring

Once paired, the camera's video feed will be accessible through your main digital wireless camera system's monitor or recording device. Consult your main system's manual for details on viewing multiple cameras, switching channels, and recording options.

6.2 Night Vision

The camera automatically activates its night vision feature when ambient light levels are low. The infrared LEDs will illuminate, providing a clear black-and-white image up to 5 meters away. Ensure there are no obstructions directly in front of the camera that could block the infrared light.

6.3 Wireless Range

The camera maintains a wireless connection up to 150 meters in open areas. Walls, ceilings, and other obstructions can significantly reduce this range. Position the camera and receiver to minimize interference and maximize signal strength.
