Installation
Before installing your camera, you must read the following cautions.
1. The mounting surface must withstand five times the camera weight.
2. Do not let the cables get caught in improper places or the electric line cover can be damaged. This may
cause a short or fire.
3. Using the mounting template or the camera itself, mark and drill the necessary holes in the mounting
surface.
Installing your camera:
1. Pass wires through and make all necessary connections.
See the ‘Cabling’ section for more information.
2. Using the included screws and anchors, secure the camera
to the mounting surface.
3. Loosen the pan/tilt stopper screw and adjust the
camera’s angle as needed.
4. Use the test video cable for a local preview
of the camera’s view.
5. Use the T-W toggles at the bottom of the
camera to adjust the zoom.
Reset to the Factory Default
Press the reset button for 5 seconds to return the
setup to the factory default.
Warning:
If you press the ‘Reset’ button, you will lose all
setting data. If needed, please, make a note for
further installation.

Cabling
1. Using a PoE-Enabled Switch
The Camera is PoE-compliant, allowing transmission
of power and data via a single Ethernet cable.
PoE eliminates the need for the different cables used
to power, record, or control the camera. Follow the
illustration below to connect the camera to a PoE-
enabled switch using an Ethernet cable.
2. Using a Non-PoE Switch
If a PoE-enabled switch is not used, use a power
adaptor for power transmission and non-PoE switch
for data transmission.
Follow the illustrations below to connect the camera
without a PoE-enabled Switch.
Two Options
Use a PoE-enabled switch to connect data and power through a single cable and begin viewing and recording
images instantly.
A non-PoE switch will require an adaptor for power transmission.

3Audio Output
Connect the ‘audio out’ port of the camera to the
‘line in’ port of the speaker.
If the speaker without the amplifier is connected
to the audio out port, it doesn’t work properly.
Therefore, the speaker with the amplifier or the
separate amplifier is needed.
Audio Out is available via the RTSP backchannel.
4Audio Input
Connect the ‘audio in’ port of the camera to the
microphone directly or 'line out’ port of the
amplifier connected with a microphone.
If the microphone is connected directly, the
microphone with the embedded amplifier such
as condenser mic. needs to be used.
5Alarm/Relay Out (DO)
Connects to the alarm lights, siren or lamps and
the sensor types are normally open and
normally close.
6Sensor/Alarm Input (DI)
The sensor/alarm input device's cable should
connect to + and - of the Terminal Block.

Managing the SD Card
Micro
The memory card is an external data storage
device that has been developed to offer an
entirely new way to record and share video,
audio, and text data using digital devices.
Recommended SD card specification
(not included)
- Type: Micro SD (SD/SDHC/SDXC)
- Manufacturer: SanDisk, Samsung,
Transcend, Micron
- Capacity: 4GB~128GB
- Class: UHS-I U3 Class 10
New micro SD card over 64GB must be
formatted on the first use.
1Inserting an SD Memory Card
Insert the SD card in the arrow direction.
Don’t insert the SD memory card while it’s
upside down by force. Otherwise, it may
damage the SD memory card.
2Removing an SD Memory Card
Removing an SD Memory Card Gently press down
on the exposed end of the memory card as shown
in the diagram to eject the memory card from
the slot.
Pressing too hard on the SD memory card can
cause the card to shoot out uncontrollably from
the slot when released.
If you have saved data in the SD memory card,
removing the SD memory card before setting
the record to OFF will cause damage to the data
stored in the card.

of the camera will be affected.
H.265 (HEVC) codec with higher bitrate may cause unstable live streaming or reload the webpage.
2Codec - Choose the video codec. Depending on the selected codec, the subcategories may be changed
accordingly.
3Description - Input the additional description of the selected channel. Max. 30 alpha-numeric characters may
be used, including spaces.

6GOP(Group of Pictures) Size - Set up the number of frames (P-frame) which contain only changed information
based on the basic frame (I-frame). Regarding videos with lots of movement, if you set GOP size bigger, only
the number of P-frames is bigger.
As a result, the video resolution will be low but ‘File size’ and ‘Bit-rate can be decreased.
GOP(Group of Pictures) Size -
I-frame and P-frame creation for MPEG4, H.264, and H.265 (HEVC) video compression. ‘I-frame’, also known
as ‘key-frame’, refers to the complete image data for a specific video frame. ‘P-frame’ refers to the changes
in the image in comparison to the previous video frame. As a result, the GOP consists of one I-frame and
several P-frames. For improved video quality, use a lower number of P-frames for this setting.
7Profile - The profile defines the subset of bitstream features in H.264, H.265 (HEVC) stream, including color
reproduction and additional video compression.

Main - An intermediate profile with a medium compression ratio. Supports I-frames, P-frames, and B-frames.
High - A complex profile with a high compression ratio. Supports I-frames, P-frames, and B-frames.
CBR - To guarantee the designated constant bit rate, the quality of the video is controlled in this
mode. Therefore, the quality of the video is likely to be varying when network traffic is changing.
VBR - To guarantee the designated quality, the bit rate of the video stream is changed in this mode.
Therefore, the frame rate of the video is likely to be varying when network traffic is changing.
