The Xcam is X10's signature and most popular camera worldwide. Millions of Xcams exist today, and different variations are available, including nightwatch cams, wide-angle cams, lowlight cams and more.

The XCam can send a signal as far as 100 feet. Keep in mind, range of your camera will depend on your environment. For example, concrete walls are much tougher for these signals to travel through versus walls made of wood. The Xcam does have the ability to transmit through these environments. In some instances, people have been able to use their XCam as far as 300 feet without interruptions! You can extend the range of the Xcam singals by adding additional video senders and receivers.

The Xcam is weather resistant camera -- NOT waterproof. This means it has the ability to function outdoors in an environment if kept away from rain or downpours. When using the XCam outside, keep it an area protected from the rain, like under an overhang. This will prolong the life of your camera and give you many more years of use!

Xcams are so easy to install that you can install the Xcam in under 10 minutes. In fact, the Xcam may be the only security camera you can install with only two screws!

If you have a multiple-camera system, only the camera that senses motion will be active at one time. If you’d like to be able to view multiple cameras simultaneously on one screen you can add the multiplexer, which is sold separately.

With the Xcam you have full video and audio capabilities! The microphone is located inside the camera casing on the head of the camera. If you are interested in having audio capabilities, you must have a receiver intended for audio. If interested, you can upgrade the current video receiver on this package to receive audio for only a few dollars more.

X10 cameras are shipped in focus for normal use. You can adjust the focus if needed. Just remove the clear plastic cover and rotate the inner portion of the lens.

Your Xcam is compatible with all other X10 items! Other accessories that are available for your Xcam include: (items sold separately unless noted)

Video Receiver – The Xcam transmits its signals to the Video Receiver. The video receiver is either plugged directly into your television or VCR, allowing the picture from your XCam to be displayed.
USB Video Capture Adaptor – The USB Capture adaptor is what allows your Video Receiver to plug directly into your computer, allowing the picture from your XCam to be displayed on your PC.
Ninja Pan & Tilt Base with remote – The Ninja Pan & Tilt Base is a base that allows your camera free movement to pan and tilt. Use the remote control to send signals to the Ninja base to pan and tilt.
Battery Packs – These packs provide a 4 to 5 hour source of power for your cameras in the event of an outage.
VCR Commander – The VCR Commander works with the XCam to record motion that is detected to a standard VCR. If you are looking to record what the XCam captures, a VCR Commander is essential.
Motion Sensors – Motion sensors can work in conjunction with your cameras to provide a wider coverage area for detection and recording.
Multiplexor – A multiplexor allows you to view the actions of multiple cameras at one time.

The X10 camera transmits video in NTSC format (the TV format used in North America), and the Video Receiver's output is the same. Our video receivers do not have S-Video connections, but use a video RCA output jack to connect to a TV or VCR, as the majority of video electronics in North America use this format over S-Video.

The microphone is sensitive enough to pick up conversational level noise from a range of about 10 feet, louder noises can be picked up even if further away.

Why should you choose the XCam? because it has multiple capabilities as a security camera, and a webcam, providing you flexibility. In addition, it’s compatibility with many add-ons allow you to be as creative as you want to be. And our 30-day return guarantee means you have nothing to lose!
