Connections
There are two types. One is cabling with built-in connector board and the other one is
with connector cable.
Note that user must choose only one of these two configurations. The camera does not
support both cabling at the same time.
Connector cable (option):
1. RJ45 LAN socket: Connect to PC or Hub/Switch.
It’s for connections to 10Base-T Ethernet, 100Base-TX, or 1000Base-TX Ethernet
cabling. This Ethernet port built N-Way protocol can detect or negotiate the transmission
speed of the network automatically. Please use Category 5 or better cable to connect
the Network Camera to an Ethernet network switch or hub.

In the LAN socket, there are two LEDs embedded:
LAN LED (green color)
This LED will be flashing while network accessing via Ethernet.
Power LED (orange color)
This LED is used to indicate whether DC power is on or not.
2. RS-485: Connect to a local keyboard controller.

2. Hold the button at least 5 seconds and release it. Then the device has been
restored to default settings and reboot again.
Note: Restoring the factory default setting will lose the all previous settings included IP
address forever. User needs to run the IPWizard II program to search the device and
configure it to let the device work properly again.
4. DC-in Jack
The input power is 12VDC. Note that supply the power to the Network Camera with the
power adapter included in package.
5. MIC in (audio in)
Connect a microphone to the network camera.
6. Line out (audio out)
Connect a loud speaker to the network camera. This function is for voice alerting and
two-way audio.
7. Video out (BNC connector)
The Network Camera also provides composite video output. The video output function is
only for easy installation to check view angle and focus. The output is not a Mega-pixel

resolution. Furthermore, the video output is off by default. To turn on video, please refer
to Setting\Camera\Picture chapter.
Connector board:
Note that to cabling this camera by type of connector board, firstly, user must remove
the attached “connector cable” from wafer 1~ 6 shown as below:
1. RJ45 LAN socket:
The LAN socket is a RJ-45 connector for connections to 10Base-T Ethernet,
100Base-TX, or 1000Base-TX Ethernet cabling. This Ethernet port built N-Way protocol

Hardware Installation
1. Use the provided L-wrench, loosen the tamper-resistant housing cover (with screws
still attached on the cover). The unit has a factory installed side conduit entry and one
may adjust the cables to back conduit entry according to installation requirement.
2. Set the mounting base onto the wall or ceiling and center it over the mounting hole, using
the supplied two retaining screws to secure the main body.
3. Set the proper image by rotating the camera body and set the focus by turning the
lens to the left or right direction. You can connect video output cable (BNC) to a TV
monitor. Once the picture appeared on the monitor, and then adjust the focus of the lens
to obtain the best clear picture.
4. When the camera focus adjustment has been completed, use the provided L-wrench
to fasten the tamper-resistant housing to the main body.
