The unit is designed for easy placement and can be wall-mounted.
Key Components:

Setup
1. Powering On the Camera Unit:
- Connect the small end of the power adapter to the DC-in port on the back of the camera unit.
- Plug the other end of the power adapter into a wall outlet.
- The status indicator light on the camera unit will illuminate, indicating it is powered on.
2. Pairing the Camera Unit with the Monitor:
The camera unit is typically pre-paired with the monitor unit from the factory. If you need to re-pair or add a new camera unit, follow these steps:
- Ensure both the camera unit and the monitor unit are powered on.
- On the monitor unit, navigate to the "Camera Settings" or "Add Camera" menu (refer to your monitor's user manual for specific instructions).
- Select the option to add a new camera. The monitor will begin searching for available camera units.
- Within 30 seconds of the monitor searching, press and hold the "Pairing" button on the back of the camera unit for approximately 3 seconds.
- The monitor unit should display a message indicating successful pairing. The video feed from the camera will then appear on the monitor.
3. Camera Placement:
- Place the camera unit on a flat, stable surface, or mount it on a wall using appropriate hardware (not included).
- Ensure the camera is positioned to provide a clear view of the baby's crib or play area.
- Maintain a distance of at least 1 meter (3 feet) between the camera unit and the baby to prevent entanglement with the power cord.
- Avoid placing the camera in areas with direct sunlight or strong artificial light, which can affect image quality.
