1 Operating Elements and Connections

1 Infrared LEDs
2 Microphone
3 Noise detector*
4 Antenna
5 PIR motion detector* (passive infrared)
6 Control for the sensitivity of the noise detector
Control at the left stop = high sensitivity ~ 65 dB
Control at the right stop = low sensitivity ~ 95 dB
7 Lens
8 Control for adjusting the tracking time with acti-
vated detector (2 s to 5 min)
9 Low voltage inline jack for the operating voltage
of 12 V ±0,5 V, current consumption 340 mA with
IR LEDs switched on;
a low voltage plug 5.5/2.5 mm (outside/inside dia-
meter) is required;
inner contact = positive pole
* will switch on the camera and the transmitter upon detec-
tion of a movement or a noise

2 Safety Notes

This camera corresponds to the EU directive for elec-
tromagnetic compatibility 89/336/EEC.
The camera is suitable for indoor use only. Protect
it against humidity and heat (admissible ambient
temperature range 0 – 40 °C).
Always protect the lens of the lens assembly from
dust and other impurities. Never touch it with your
fingers.
Never cover the air vents of the camera housing
or insert any objects. The unit may otherwise be
damaged.
For cleaning only use a dry, soft cloth, by no means
chemicals or water.
If the camera is used for other purposes than orig-
inally intended, if it is not correctly connected or
operated or not repaired in an expert way, no liabil-
ity for any damage will be accepted.
If the camera is to be put out of operation definiti-
vely, take it to a local recycling plant for a disposal
which is not harmful to the environment.
3 Applications
In combination with a 2.4 GHz receiver of the
MONACOR "AV-..." series and a monitor, the wireless
B/W camera with integrated electret microphone
serves for wireless audio and video surveillance. The
camera is equipped with a motion detector and a
noise detector which will switch on the camera and
the integrated transmitter for a certain time upon
recognition of a movement or a noise.

The transmission range largely depends on the
local conditions and the receiver used. The maximum
range is reached when there are no obstacles be-
tween the transmitter and the receiver. However, in
buildings the range is reduced by walls and ceilings
depending on their condition.
Transmission range
Model
without any obstacles
AV-180PIR approx. 300 m
AV-3080PIR approx. 500 m
By using an antenna with gain at the receiver, the
range can be increased many times over, if required.
3.1 Approval
According to the R+TTE directive (Radio and Tele-
communication Technical Equipment), the approvals
of the units AV-180PIR and AV-3080PIR are valid in
the countries of the European Union. However, for
model AV-3080PIR, there may be restrictions for use
outside the Federal Republic of Germany by the cor-
responding approval authorities.
For operation in countries outside the EU or for
any other inquiries, please contact your retailer or the
MONACOR subsidiary in the country where this
camera will be operated.

4 Operation

4.1 Placing the camera and the receiver
Practical experience has shown that an optimum
reception is achieved when placing the units at a
height of minimum 1.5 m to 2 m above the ground.
Prior to final mounting, a trial run is recommended as
the transmission quality can be substantially changed
by displacing the units by a few centimetres only.
4.2 Mounting
1
A 6.3 mm ( / ") thread jack is supplied with the unit for
4
mounting the camera on a support or a stand. This
thread jack can be attached to the camera housing by
means of commercial plastic adhesive.
4.3 Channel selection
The wireless transmission is made in the 2.4 GHz
range which has been divided by the manufacturer
into five channels with a distance of 14 MHz. As a
maximum, three channels can be used simulta-
neously (channels 1, 3, and 5) as two adjacent chan-
nels will interfere with each other. The following chan-
nel selection is recommended:
for two cameras: channels 1 and 5
for three cameras: channels 1, 3, and 5
Adjust the desired transmission channel with the DIP
switches on the rear side of the housing, see fig. 2.
