Setup: Basic Camera Setup

This online guide will take you through setting up and using the camera. A new world of sophisticated video surveillance is waiting for you! Your Sentinel Camera is ready to go out of the box! Follow these steps for a quick setup of your new camera.




You should have:
- Sentinel Camera and its power supply
- Remote control
- Mounting bracket and hardware
- Weather resistant dome
- Wireless video receiver with its video cable and power supply


First you’ll set up and test the camera before you install the camera into the dome. Make sure you read this entire manual first in case you want to change a setting on the base of the camera before installing it in the dome.




Plug the camera’s power supply into a standard wall outlet. Plug the other end into the camera. Remove the protective cover from the camera’s lens.





Remove the battery cover and put four (4) AAA batteries into the camera remote. Make sure to match the batteries to the + and – marks inside the battery case.





Put your video receiver in a convenient place near or on your TV. Plug its power supply into a standard wall outlet and the other end into the video receiver.





Connect the video cable into the video-out jack on the video receiver and into the video-in jack on your TV.





Make sure the power switch on the video receiver is set to “ON.”





Turn on your TV and select its video input. Use the Video or Select buttons on your TV remote control, or try channel 0 and then Channel Down. The camera’s picture should appear. Note, the picture will be upside down because the camera is intended to be mounted on a ceiling or overhang, after installing it into the dome. See page 22 if you want to flip the picture.





Once the camera and receiver are in place, adjust their antennas so that they face each other. The side of the camera’s antenna with the dot on it should face the side of the receiver’s antenna marked with four squares. Adjust the positions to improve the picture on your TV.
