Some Suggested Setups

                             My advice is to start out with a one camera setup. This way you
                             can better understand how each device in the setup works. 


                                    To monitor anyone approaching your house point the camera toward
                            the most likely accessible area. Also make sure the camera has an
                            unobstructive view for at least 20 feet so the image will have already
                            been taken before the perpetrator gets to your house.


                           An outside camera should be high enough so the peretrator can not
                           easily access it. An inside camera is best because there is less wireing
                           or in the case of a wireless camera the transmit distance can be easily
                           delt with.

                   If you are using a wireless camera then you will need a receiver like the one below  
                                                                                              

                                 Locate the receiver next to a TV or VCR with A/V inputs or next to a 
                         Computer with a Graphics Card with a Video Input or use a USB Adapter.
  

                                                                                                                  

                       For a wireless setup hook camera receiver to your tv, vcr or computer
                      graphics card via a video audio cable.

                                                                         

                                For a wired camera hook camera cable a/v plugs to your tv, vcr or 
                                computer graphics card.

                                                                                                 

                        Just a word of advice. I would hook to a tv first so you can see the image
                       right away and make any adjustments. Now you can set up your software
                       and send your image to your web site.
