Observation System
Residential Observation System

COLOR RESIDENTIAL OBSERVATION SYSTEM
Item# 7865

Overview

  • Protect your family with a motion-sensing camera that can be placed anywhere inside or outside your home
  • Installs in minutes
  • See live surveillance video on your TV whenever the camera detects motion
  • Record video with your existing VCR, even when you're not home

Essential Info

Although the Residential Observations System is sold out, an expansion camera (#7869C) is still available.

Ever wonder who's really knocking at the door? Want to keep an eye on the kids while they play in another room? Do all these things and more from the comfort of your living room with the Residential Observation System, one of the easiest-to-use surveillance systems available for the home. It sets up in just a few minutes, and then you'll be able to watch any area of your home on your existing television!

This system starts with a weatherproof camera triggered by a built-in motion sensor. When the camera detects motion, a bell chimes and live video signals are automatically sent to any TV in the house, even those connected to cable boxes or satellite receivers. The live video feed can be displayed on the TV from five to 80 seconds after motion was detected, depending on your preference. You can also set the video feed to remain constant, if you prefer.

Best of all, this fully-integrated system is incredibly easy to hook up. To achieve the same result with separate components would require a jungle of wires to transfer the video and power signals across the multiple components. But with this all-in-one system, the included cable handles it all, which reduces installation time AND increases reliability.

The basic kit includes the control unit and a weatherproof color camera plus these parts:

  • Adjustable camera mounting bracket

  • Mounting screws for the bracket

  • Camera connecting cable (65 feet)

  • RCA video connecting cord

  • F-Connector coax cable

  • Power adapter (14VDC at 300mA)
