Model: F250 2.4GHz PIR MOTION ACTIVATED LIGHTING CAMERA SYSTEM HALOGEN MOTION DETECTED SECURITY LIGHTING WITH WIRELESS SECURITY CAMERA FEATURES:
Turns on light when motion is detected Automatically turns lighting off. Photocell keeps the lighting off during daylight hours. Wireless security camera to monitor day or night. INTRODUCTION Your First Alert 2.4GHz MOTION ACTIVATED LIGHTING CAMERA SYSTEM is a unique surveillance system for your home or business. The system includes a PIR LIGHTING CAMERA and a Wireless Receiver. Using the Wireless Receiver as a bridge to connect to your TV, you will see and hear real-time video images at all times. At night, the built-in passive infrared (PIR) motion sensor turns on the floodlight when it detects motion in its coverage area so the camera images can be seen on the TV for improved night time vision. During the day, the built-in photocell sensor saves electricity by deactivating the floodlight. A 4-position time adjustment switch lets you select how long the floodlight will stay on after activation. Adjustable 4-channel wireless system avoids interference. Two operation options let you choose: Automatic Operation or Manual Override. Note: Read this entire manual before you start to install the system. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Do not install the PIR LIGHTING CAMERA when it is raining. before installing.
Be sure to switch off the power at the power source
Make sure that the power wiring comes from a circuit with an external 16A miniature circuit breaker for the short circuit protection or a suitable fuse.
Do not remove the adjusting screw. Tighten the connection of the floodlight head assembly and motion sensor to the base to avoid any rotation. The unit is wall and ceiling mountable. (FIGURE 1)

(FIGURE 4) FIGURE 4 The suggested swiveling angle of camera and PIR are outlined hereunder: (FIGURE 5) FIGURE 5 IMPORTANT Skilled technicians who are informed about the standards and technical requirements of the appliance and its proper installation must perform installation. A qualified electrician or technician shall do maintenance or repairing work such as replacing current fuse. Before proceeding with the installation, TURN OFF THE POWER TO THE LIGHTING CIRCUIT AT THE CIRCUIT BREAKER OR FUSE BOX TO AVOID ELECTRICAL SHOCK. CHOOSING A MOUNTING LOCATION
For best results, install your PIR LIGHTING CAMERA on a solid surface, 6.5ft. above the ground.
For outdoor installation, a location under eaves is preferable.
Avoid aiming the motion sensor at pools, heating vents, air conditioners or objects that may change temperature rapidly.
Do not allow sunlight to hit directly on the front of the unit.
Try to avoid pointing the unit at trees or shrubs where the motion of pets or animals may be detected.
The transmission range to the Wireless Receiver is up to 300ft. in clear line of sight. *Quality of picture will deteriorate as the distance increases.
Prior to mounting the light fixture, remember to position the motion sensor so that a moving object cuts across its beams, not directly towards them.
(FIGURE 6). LESS SENSITIVE MORE SENSITIVE SENSOR SENSOR SENSITIVITY TO MOTION FIGURE 6
* Maximum open space transmission range. Actual range may vary dependent upon building materials and other obstructions in the path of the wireless signal. INSTALLATION Avoid pointing the camera directly at a light source. When installing the camera outdoors, you should ensure that the camera lens will not become dusty and the camera does not point directly at a light source (i.e. direct lighting or sun light), as the picture quality will be impaired. Additionally, the camera must be positioned so that it will not point directly to the sun (sunrise or sunset) or any bright lights as this may cause damage to the camera. The best viewing angle is achieved at greater heights (i.e. 8 to 9 ft) with the camera pointing down. Also, avoid viewing areas where half the area is in bright sunlight and the other half is dark. The ideal position for your camera will vary greatly depending upon your application. If you are installing the camera adjacent to your front door, bear in mind not to position it too far away, as you may not be able to hear any speech or sound. A drill and a screwdriver are needed for installation. Select a location for the unit based on the coverage angles shown. FIGURE 7 Install a wall switch adjacent to the power source.
