INTRODUCTION
These instructions cover Baxall IP series cameras. Read all of these instructions. Use
them to install the camera and have them available for its lifetime. If you have any problems,
contact Baxall Limited. All IP series cameras are fitted ith a Direct Drive (DD) lens connector,
have adjustable back focus and accept C and CS lenses.
There are a number of variants in the IP series camera range, ith 1/2 and 1/3 CCD
monochrome output (CCIR or EIA format) and colour output (PAL or NTSC) models available.
There is also a choice bet een models configured to use H261 compression and models
that use MJPEG compression. All the variants require an external 12V DC po er supply.
The IP series cameras are designed to encode compressed video and transmit the data
over either a 10 or 100 Base-T net ork at variable bit rates of bet een 8Kbps and 1.5Mbps.
Using an IP decoder, this data can be converted to an analogue video signal and displayed
on a standard CCTV monitor (H261 compression only). Alternatively, IP series cameras
can be displayed on a PC using the IP PC Vie er.
A serial data channel can be set up to support RS232, RS422 or RS485 operation, allo ing
integration ith third party equipment. In addition, provision is made for t o alarm inputs,
one alarm output, and a bi-directional audio channel (G711 or G728).
Video (H261 or MJPEG) and audio (G711 or G728) options are pre-programmed at
production. Ho ever, different soft are can be do nloaded into the camera using the
Video Administrator tool, as described in the IP PC Vie ing and Configuration Soft are
Manual. These do nloads are available by contacting Baxall Technical Support.

SWITCH SETTINGS
There are four function s itches on the rear panel of the IP series cameras that control the
Backlight Compensation (BLC), Electronic Iris (EI), gamma correction and Automatic Gain
Control (AGC) functions.
Backlight Compensation (BLC)
Backlight compensation operates by enhancing objects in the
centre of the scene hich ould previously have been in
silhouette. The BLC feature is turned ON or O using dip s itch
number 1. Default setting is O .
BLC ill only function ith a manual iris lens hen the Electronic
Iris feature is s itched ON. For direct drive and video drive auto-
iris lenses, BLC ill still function even though the Electronic Iris
feature is s itched off.
Electronic Iris (EI)
The Electronic Iris (EI) feature compensates for excessive light
levels by automatically adjusting the shutter speed of the camera.
Select ON or O using dip s itch number 2. The default setting
is O .
Gamma
Dip s itch number 3 is used to select bet een the t o available
gamma correction options. Use the s itch to select NORMAL
(0.45), hich provides increased visibility ithin the darker areas
of a scene, or LINEAR (1.0) for a more linear response. The
default setting is NORMAL.
Automatic Gain Control (AGC)
The Automatic Gain Control feature can improve picture quality
hen the level of scene illumination is lo . Select ON or O
using dip s itch number 4. For most applications, the AGC feature
should be ON and is therefore the default setting.
Synchronisation
The camera is set to INTERNAL, hich locks the frame rate to a frequency generated by
an internal crystal.
PROGRAMMING AND ADDRESSING
IP series cameras are pre-programmed ith the appropriate video and audio soft are to
suit the application.
