I got an old safety 1st video baby monitor, its an older model, black and white with IR LED’S. Is there a way I can hook it up to a regular TV wothout having to use some sort of expensive or complicated device?

What outputs does it have? If it’s RCA video/audio out, the cables are very inexpensive and almost any reasonably new TV will accommodate them.

The camera send a wireless signal to the TV, and the TV does not have any outputs, and it doesn’t receive any regular stations. It only has a headphone jack.

I don’t know how to tell what frequency it is broadcasting on, so I don’t know if your TV can receive the signal.

I don’t know either, they didn’t have a manual at the garage sale

Check on line, if you have the model number.

I don’t have the model number either. I’ve tried scanning for the picture on all available channels on my TV but didn’t receive it.
