ALARM IN
RELAY OUT
The breakout cable on Channel Vision’s IP Cameras are used for motion detection, event
triggering, alarm notifications etc.
The provided interface connections are explained below.
1.) Digital Input (GND+Alarm):
An alarm input for connecting devices that can toggle between an open and closed circuit, for
example PIRs, door/window contacts, broken glass detectors, etc. When a signal is received, the
state changes and the input becomes active.
2.) Relay output (COM +N.O.) / (COM+N.C.)
A selectable output for a relay switch, for example LEDs, Sirens, etc.
Normally Open and Normally Closed can be selected via the Internet Explorer ActiveX control
under the “I/O Setting” section on the left.
(See pages 35, 36 for I/O settings)

N.O.

Power over Ethernet (PoE) is a technology that integrates power into a standard LAN infrastructure. It
enables power to be provided to the network device, such as an IP phone or a network camera, using the
same cable that is used for the network connection.
The PoE switch eliminates the need for power outlets at the camera locations and enables an easier
application of uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) to ensure 24 hours a day, 7 days a week operation.
A 802.3af, 15.4W PoE Switch is recommended with 6521 and 6522.
If using a PoE switch that does not meet this specification, full functionality may not be supported.

1.) Use the software, “IP Installer” to assign the IP address to your 6521 or 6522. You can find
"IP Installer" in the supplied CD.
2.) Execute IP Installer. This is located on your disk under the folder “Megapixel Camera
Network Search Application”
3.) If Windows prompts you to unblock IP Installer, you must select “unblock”
There are 3 kinds of IP configuration
A.) Fixed IP (Public IP or Virtual IP)
B.) DHCP (Dynamic IP)
C.) Dial-up (PPPoE)
"IP Installer" will search all IP Cameras connected to your LAN network.The user can
click “Search Device” to search again.
Assigning an IP Address

1.) Click the start icon on your computer
2.) Click the ‘Run’ icon on your computer.
3.) Type in ‘cmd’ and press enter on your keyboard, or press ok.
4.) Type in ‘ipconfig /all’ into the DOS prompt that appears. Press enter.
5.) Write down your computer’s IP address.
It is important that we do not use the same IP address for our IP Camera.
In the example below, the computer’s IP address is 192.168.1.74.
The IP address of the IP Camera must be different than the IP address in the computer.
Each networkable device in your network has an IP address assigned. You need to be sure the IP you
choose for your IP camera is not the same as any other device on your network.
Assigning an IP Address /cont

Assigning an IP Address /cont
6.) Copy/write down the following information from the DOS prompt.
A.) Default Gateway (Example 192.168.1.1)
B.) DNS Server (if 2 servers, use the first one, for example 192.168.1.9)
C.) Subnet Mask (Example 255.255.255.0)
9

Assigning an IP Address /cont
To change numbers, select the appropriate area on IP installer
with your mouse, and type in the info.
Name
Fourth number (different than computer)
Select “Static”
Subnet Mask (same as computer)
Default Gateway (same as computer)
DNS Server 1 (same as computer)
DNS Server 2 (same as computer)
Port (A port between 8000-8999 is
recommended, but any network
port can be used)
First 3 numbers are
same as computer
7.) Enter the information you wrote down from step 6 on page 9 into the IP camera network page
A.) Default Gateway (Enter this number under “Gateway”)
B.) DNS Server (Enter this number under “DNS 1”)
C.) Subnet Mask (Enter this number under “Netmask”)
8.) Giving the IP Camera a unique IP address.
Assign and IP address to the IP Camera by using the first 3 sets of numbers of your default gateway. A
IP address, has 4 sets of numbers, each followed by a period. For example, xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx My default
gateway is 192.168.1.1 So, for example, my IP Camera’s address will start with 192.168.1.xxx
9.) Make sure you use a number different that your computer’s IP address.
(Generally between 2-250) This number needs to be out of the range of DHCP. DHCP is assigned with
your router, and can be checked by logging into the router.
My computer’s IP address is 192.168.1.74. I have used 192.168.1.208 for my IP Camera.
You must choose a number that is different from your computer’s IP.
If your IT technician has designated a static internal IP for your IP Camera, use that address.
10.) To assign the port, choose a port between 5400-9000, and type it into “Port 1” If a specific port has
been designated for your security system, that can also be used, even if the number is not within the
range of 5400-9000.
