3Setting up the Network Camera
3.1 Read Before Use
The use of surveillance devices may be prohibited by law in your country. The Network Camera is not only a
high-performance web-ready camera but can also be part of a flexible surveillance system. It is the user’s
responsibility to ensure that the operation of such devices is legal before installing this unit for its intended use.
It is important to first verify that all contents received are complete. Take note of the warnings in the Quick
Installation Guide before the Network Camera is installed; then carefully read and follow the instructions in the
Installation chapter to avoid damage due to faulty assembly and installation. This also ensures the product is
used properly as intended. It is designed for various applications including video sharing, general
security/surveillance, etc.
3.2 Hardware Installation Steps
After unpacking the package and identifying its parts, assemble the network camera to run the device for the
first time.
It is recommended set up the camera before installing it to the intended location.
The following instructions will consist of basic steps that will help you through the hardware preparation.
Other required devices before powering up the Network Camera:
1. Personal Computer or Laptop; and
2. Network Hub or Switch and 2 (two) pieces of Ethernet Cable; or
3. 1(one) piece of Crossover Ethernet Cable
STEPS:
1. Attach the bracket that comes in the package to the Bracket Nut Hole
2. Connect the Ethernet Plug to the Network Connector RJ-45 from the device
Plug the Power Jack to the Power Connector (For Network Cameras that are Power-over-Ethernet
supported, the Power Adapter is not necessary)
3. After the Power Connector is plugged in, the Network Camera will boot up.
4. Wait a few seconds for the Network Camera to startup
Assemble the Bracket

3.3 Open the Housing
The Micro SD card slot and factory default button are located inside the Network Camera. It’s required to
open the back cover of the camera and use them.
Note:
1. Once the back cover has been Deleted, you will find a rubber ring slightly attached to the inner
side of the body of the Network Camera. Don’t lose the rubber ring as it is required to prevent
water getting into the camera, as well as for a proper sealing and fitting of the back cover.
2. An additional rubber ring is included in package for spare.
3. It is suggested to reduce the opening of the camera since the unit is intended for outdoor usage.
4. It is recommended the contents of the card be read using from a remote connection. Please refer
to the section “5.3 Storage Settings”.
3.4 Using the Micro SD Card
The network camera comes with a Micro SD card slot to allow users insert a Micro SD
card to save snapshots and videos into it. Refer to Chapter 5) Configuring the camera,
Storage Settings and Event Settings.
Before plugging / unplugging Micro SD card into / from the slot, it’s recommended to turn
the device off.

properly after installing Micro SD card, and caused the unit's waterproof function failed.
Note:
1. The device does not support Hot-Swapping function.
2. Tweezers is recommended to help insert the Micro SD card.
3. This unit supports minimum 2GB and max 32GB Micro SD/SDHC card and Class 6 or higher for
smooth operation.
3.5 Using the Terminal Block
The network camera comes with a Terminal Block
that can offer multiple functions to the user:
Pin 1 ~ 4: Intended for triggering and receiving alarms
for the Event Configuration feature.
Pin 5, 6: Terminal block also provides 2 pins, Pin 5 and
6, for “load default”. With 2 wires connected to Pin 5
& 6, keep 2 wires in touch until System LED fast
flashing. Then, separate them to activate “load
default”.
Connecting Alarm devices
Connect Pin 1 and Pin 2 for an external relay device such as an alarm that expects to be activated.
Connect Pin 3 and Pin 4 for an external Triggering device for sending a signal into the Network
Camera.
Refer to Chapter 5) Configuring the camera, Event Settings for more references on
how to use the even trigger and alarm to perform tasks such as taking snapshots and uploading
images.
Load default
With 2 wires connected to Pin 5 & 6, keep 2 wires in touch (or close circuit) until System LED fast
flashing. Then, separate (or open) them to activate “load default”.
Pin 1 COM (Relay Common)
Pin 2 D-OUT (Relay Normal

3.6 Re-install the Housing
When finishing Micro SD card installation or factory default, please re-install the parts as the following order (A
to E) and end up with tightly fastening the screws.
A). To ensure water-proof function, do certainly locate the waterproof rubber in place (see the right figure)
before installing the back cover.
B). Put the PCBA into the camera body.
C). Put the desiccant bag in.
D). Install the back cover.
E). Fasten the screws tightly.
Note:
1. There is one additional unopened desiccant (silica gel) inside the housing for spare.
2. To ensure fog-proof function, do replace the desiccant bag with a new one, when it’s necessary to
re-install the camera. An unopened silica gel bag can last about 3 months, however, the durability could be
shortened under severe environment.
3. Silica Gel is the recommended desiccant type to ensure fog-proof function. If the desiccant bag is run out,
please purchase and replace with this type.

3.7 Network Connection for PoE/Non-PoE Cameras
The Network Camera comes as an optional model which supports Power-over-Ethernet (PoE).
Using Power-over-Ethernet as power supplying mode, takes advantage of having a simple connection, with
only one Ethernet Cable to act like Data and Power transmission. And it is not necessary to use any Power
Adapter since the powering will be done directly through the Ethernet Connector.
Below a comparison between a Regular Ethernet connection and a connection using Network Camera with
built-in Power-over-Ethernet.
