I missed the setup sheet in the box so had to wing it, but had no problem. This is a great product -- good color and resolution plus lots of recording options for a reasonable price. A website link (in English) to the manual would be a real help.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Easy setup hands down, it picked up both cameras without any problem. I checked reviews and made my choice by them and I’m glad I did. Awesome colored and clear view. The 7 inch panel stand could be put anywhere in the house. I got the PHOENIXM22C with two cameras, one for the back door and one in the front of the garage facing the driveway. One thing you have to figure is where you want to drill your hole using a ½ drill bit through the wall for the cameras to be plugged up to power outlet.
The cords for the cameras are over 14 foot in length to be plug in an outlet. So you have to measure to your closes power outlet from where you drilled. Once you do that your home free the rest is easy. Just plug in your Defender panel and your cameras and the defender will pick them up, cam 1 and cam 2. Now from your email they send you the instructions in a PDF file for download. You have to have a PDF program to open it up. Once you read on how to fine tune your Defender with sound, you feel glad you bought the best.

Too good to be true?

While looking for a wireless door bell intercom, I ran across this PhoenixM2. Not knowing, at the time, that it had audio capability, I thought that this would be a great addition to an intercom. After I read on and discovered it indeed did have an intercom, my first thought was,"this is too good to be true". It is a stand alone system that doesn't require a smart phone or computer or any kind of linking up like wifi. I ordered it because of the simplicity and reasonable price (considering the capabilities). I must admit, my expectations weren't very high.
I installed it in a matter of minutes, not hours, and it worked right out of the box. It is truly a plug in and play system. I am very impressed with the picture quality, even in the dark, and the other functions and it also records video on an SD card. It works just as advertised and I couldn't be happier.
The only negatives I can see are that the monitor seems a little light duty and the users manual (which is very good) is a little hard to find on the Defender web sight. It probably took longer to find the manual than to install the system.

We purchased this system to be able to see the garage side of our home. I couldn't be happier with this! Not only does it let me see the garage area and door but I can see all the way down my driveway! I love the fact that it can detect movement and record to the included sd card. There is a sleep mode on the monitor which turns the monitor on when motion is detected so the monitor doesn't have to stay on all of the time. Also love the built in microphone/speaker. If someone comes to the door you are able to speak to them and hear them!! My only issue is the lettering above the monitor buttons. It is so faint it is very difficult to read. A bright color lettering would have been very helpful. All in all, this is a great product and I would highly recommend it!
