FACT SHEET:
HARDWIRED AND WIRELESS
VIDEO CAMERA DETECTOR
Why does this unit work so well?
It's a simple concept. This unit is based on the following theory. Video cameras
contain a horizontal oscillator which operates at 15.75 KHz. This signal is
radiated from the camera at a very low level and can be picked up by this
specialized Very Low Frequency (VLF) unit.
Why don't regular RF Detectors find hard wired/wireless video cameras?
Most over the counter frequency scanners only target a range from 50 MHz. to 3
GHz. These are the most common frequencies used to broadcast images via a
wireless radio signal.
Till now hard wired/wireless cameras were almost impossible to detect. Many RF
style sweep units are offered that detect radio frequencies used to transmit
video from one location to another. The RF style sweeps were almost useless when
a hard wired/wireless video camera was in place. Now you can detect these video
cameras. This is a must have addition to your counter-measure arsenal.
Finding Video Cameras with this unit.
Because they use the same horizontal frequency as video cameras, any televisions
in the area should be turned off. Otherwise, you will get false indications from
the TV. Also, the ballast in some fluorescent lamps emits a signal in the same
frequency range, so turn them off too.
Turn the unit on and set the Sensitivity control to MAX. The Green Power On LED
should light. The Yellow LED will come on briefly as the unit performs a
self-test and then will go off. Walk slowly around the room while sweeping
slowly up and down from ceiling to floor.
If there is an operating video camera in the room, the Yellow LED will begin to
flash. As you approach the camera , the Yellow LED will come on steady
indicating that the unit is locked onto a valid signal and the RED LEDs will
come on in order as the signal strength increases.
The VLF antenna used with this unit is directional with maximum signal pickup
off the end of the antenna. This directional characteristic can help you
pinpoint the location of the video camera.
When the Red LEDs come on, simply turn the unit so that the antenna faces
different directions. The direction of the strongest pickup indicates the camera
direction. If the signal gets stronger as you move forward, then the camera is
to the front. Otherwise, it's behind you.
The sensitivity control can be used to help zero in on the location of the
camera. Just reduce the sensitivity setting until the Red LEDs begin to go out.
Then sweep the unit back and forth as you move forward. The LEDs again grow
brightly as you move closer to the camera.
