Local storage
Notice!
Local storage on memory cards should only be used for alarm
recording. To minimize the risk of losing information, use
multiple, redundant recording systems and a procedure to back
up all digital information.
To insert a memory card:
1. Slide the memory card into the slot.
2. Press it firmly until it latches into place in the slot (when
removing the card, press it down firmly again until it
unlatches).
Wiring
!
Caution!
The unit has connection terminals on flying leads. In wet or
outdoor installations, use a field wiring box with NEMA Type 4X
or IP66 protection level or better. After connections are made,
ensure the watertight compartment is tightly closed and cables
and conduits are properly sealed to prevent water ingress.
Notice!
Use proper surge suppression on network/video/power/audio/
data/alarm cables that are routed outdoors, or close to large
inductive loads or electrical mains supply cables.

Connect the yellow/green wire of the camera to the system
earth of the installation to ensure correct safety and EMC/RFI
protection.
Network (and PoE power)
Connect the camera to a 10/100 Base-T network:
– Use STP Category 5e cable with RJ45 connectors (the
camera network socket is Auto MDIX compliant).
– Power is supplied to the camera via the Ethernet cable
compliant with the Power-over-Ethernet standard.
Notice!
Use only PoE approved devices.
Power-over-Ethernet can be connected at the same time as a
12 VDC power supply. If auxiliary power (12 VDC) and PoE is
applied simultaneously, the camera selects PoE and shuts off
the auxiliary input.
Auxiliary power
Connect a SELV-LPS or a SELV Class 2 power supply with a
rated supply voltage of 12 VDC as follows:
– Cut back 7 mm (0.28 in) of insulation.
– Connect the power wires (red+ , brown-) to the external
power supply.
!
Caution!
Use only a +12 VDC power supply as an auxiliary power source.
The auxiliary power supply unit must be isolated from earth.
Alarm
Use the stranded and solid wires with maximum diameter AWG
22-28; only cut back 5 mm (0.2 in) of insulation.

Alarm out:
Use the alarm output for switching external devices such as
lamps or sirens.
The alarm output switching capability has max. voltage 30 VAC
or +40 VDC; max. 0.5 A continuous, 10 VA.
Alarm in:
Use the alarm input to connect external alarm devices such as
door contacts or sensors:
– TTL logic, +5 V nominal, +40 VDC max, DC coupled with
50 kOhm pull-up to +3.3 V.
– Configurable as active low or active high.
Use a zero potential make-contact or switch as the actuator
(with a bounce-free contact system).
Audio
Connect audio devices to the audio input and audio output
connectors.
The unit has full-duplex mono audio for two-way communication
between a speaker or door intercom system. The audio input
signal is transmitted in sync. with the video signal.
Audio input:
Line input level (not suitable for direct microphone signal);
impedance 18 kOhm typical; 1 Vrms maximum input voltage.
Audio output:
Line output level (not suitable for direct speaker connection);
impedance 1.5 kOhm minimum; 0.85 Vrms maximum output
voltage.
Use shielded audio connection cable with advised maximum
cable lengths for audio line input and output levels.
Video
Use the composite video connector (CVBS) on the camera to
connect an analog monitor for setting up the camera or as a
permanent analog output for viewing or recording:

– To connect a monitor for set-up, use the optional 3 m cable
(NBN-MCSMB-30M) to connect directly to the CVBS
connector of a monitor.
– For a permanent analog output, use the optional 0.3 m
cable (NBN-MCSMB-03M) to connect to a high quality coax
cable.
Mounting the camera module
Mounting flush to ceiling
To mount the camera flush to the ceiling:
1. Mark out the recess hole and the three mounting holes. The
mounting holes are equally spaced around a diameter of
133 mm (5.25 in).
2. Cut out the inner recess hole: Ø105 mm (4.13 in).
3. Use a 8 mm (0.31 in) bit to drill the three mounting holes
4. Insert the supplied mounting plugs (8 x 40) into the
mounting holes.
5. Use the supplied screws (DIN7505-B 50mm) to securely
mount the camera to the ceiling surface; if the ceiling is too
thin, use appropriate ceiling bolts (not supplied).

To mount the camera using a Surface Mount Box and cable
conduit:
1. Use the SMB to mark out the cable hole in the ceiling and
to mark the three mounting holes. The mounting holes are
equally spaced around a diameter of 133 mm (5.25 in).
2. Cut out the cable hole in the ceiling, and use a 8 mm
(0.31 in) bit to drill the three mounting holes.
3. Insert the supplied mounting plugs (8 x 40) into the
mounting holes.

4. Use the supplied screws (pozidrive DIN7505-B 50mm) to
securely attach the SMB to the surface.
5. Feed the Ethernet RJ45 cable from source through the
ceiling into the SMB
6. Remove the cover from the SMB cable conduit and slide
out the rubber seals at either end.
7. Thread the Ethernet cables from the camera and source
through the seals (they can be pulled open to fit the
cables). If required, use the larger bore seal (supplied in
parts package) to fit thicker cables.
8. Slot the seals (with cables) into either end of the conduit.
9. Connect the Ethernet cables inside the conduit using the
supplied RJ45 shielded connector.
10. Close the cover on the conduit and position the conduit
inside the SMB.
11. Feed the other camera cabling through the cable hole in the
SMB.
12. If IP66 water ingress protection is required, connect the
camera cabling to the source cabling inside an IP66
approved box.
13. Mount the camera to the SMB using the 3 supplied screws
(M5x16mm torx).

Camera positioning and field-of-view
The camera module position can be adjusted along three axes
and several zoom positions can be selected.
To help position the camera and set the field-of-view:
1. Connect a monitor to the 2.5 mm jack using the optional
monitor cable (S1460) which provides a CVBS signal (for
installation purposes only).
2. Apply power to the camera.
3. After power-up, wait a little (about 20 seconds).
4. Press the Menu button. This stops the IP video stream and
enables the service video analog output.
