SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
All the following safety and operational instructions to prevent harm or injury to the operator(s) or
other persons should be read carefully before the unit is activated.
WARNING
 To prevent fire or shock hazard, avoid exposing this unit to rain or moisture.
 Do not block ventilation openings.
 Do not place anything on top of the unit that might spill or fall into it.
 Do not attempt to service this unit yourself, as opening or removing covers ma
y
expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Please refer all servicing to
your distributor/ retailer.
 Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosols for cleaning.
 To prevent fire or electric shock, do not overload wall outlets or extension cords.
 PoE warning : If the PoE injector is used instead of the supplied power adaptor, all
of the wiring to and from the injector must be routed/ installed inside a building
/
plant and never routed/ installed outside of the building/ plant.
 Please only select a power adapter or power certified by UL and marked at 24Vac
/ 60 Hz, minimum 1A, class 2 or LPS.
 The IP Box Camera and the Indoor Mini-dome are for Indoor use only.
CAUTION
RISK OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS REPLACED BY AN INCORRECT TYPE.
DISPOSE OF USED BATTERIES ACCORDING TO THE INSTRUCTIONS.

1. PRODUCT FEATURES
1.1 Product Instructions
This IP camera series is a high performance mega-pixel network camera which is equipped with a
high resolutions SONY 1.3M CMOS sensor and a resolution of up to 1280 x 1024 (SXGA). This
powerful new series enables you to see fresh images in fine detail aided by a spectrum of high
resolutions plus WDR technology that combats problems like capturing images against
backgrounds of bright light. In addition the series is equipped with the dynamic H.264 video
compression format, the compression codec which ensures top image quality at a low bit rate. The
3GPP installed mobile phone helps you see live scenes via the Internet as well. And this series
provides you with freshly designed, simultaneous video codec streams of H.264, MPEG4 and
MJPEG. This function, the multi-profile function, can simultaneously use different rates of
resolutions while allowing 3 video codecs to connect with computers at the same time. This IP
camera not only offers the highest resolutions in images in the field, but also day and night, pre- and
post-alarm, and ePTZ functions.
Following are the special powers featured in this series.
SXGA / 1280x1024 pixels
The series lets you view the video feed with a large field of high resolutions at SXGA / 1280x1024
pixels that provide you with clear images in great detail.
WDR (Wide Dynamic Range)
Besides, the series provides WDR technology which is aimed at coping with problems like poor
quality images shot against a strong backlight. WDR uses two shutter speeds in alternative video
fields, high and normal, and combines these two fields into one frame. It allows every detail to be
captured accurately, even if one portion is bright while other portions are dark. As a result,
combined fields yield a frame of high quality images.

H.264 compression
Currently, the H.264 is the most common and dynamic video compression format and a powerful
compression codec which delivers superior image quality at a low bit rate.
3GPP
Users can view a live scene via the Internet with a 3GPP installed mobile phone.
(Note: The 3G network bandwidth is limited; you can't use too large video size on your cell phone.)
Video Settings:
 Video Profile 1
 Maximum frame rate: 3 fps
 Intra Frame Period: 1 S
 Constant bit rate: 64 Kbps
In short, the series provides quality images and professional surveillance functions for
comprehensive security applications.

1. Light Sensor: Registers the quality of light in the camera’s environment, and controls the iris
shuttle to provide better information concerning the light.
2. MICROPHONE: The IP Camera has an additional audio function. The device has a
microphone built into its front panel which records sound.
3. POWER indicator: Indicates the power status of the unit.
4. Plug Inlet: A DC 12V inlet that connects to an external power supply.
5. Plug Inlet: An AC 24V inlet that connects to an external power supply.
6. ETHERNET 10/100 Connector: This is a standard RJ-45 connector for 10/100 Mbps Ethernet
networks. PoE (Power over Ethernet) function: Provides power to the device via the same
cable as used for the network connection.
7. RESET: Recover to factory default. (Refer to section 2.4 The Reset Button.)
8. VIDEO OUT Connector: The connector provides the unit’s composite video signals to a
monitor. (This connector adjusts and improves the images.)
9. USB port: The user can use a USB device cable to connect the IP camera to the USB port on
the PC.
10.LED indicator: The green light indicates the unit is activating and the SD card cannot be
removed.
11.AUDIO IN: The connector is used to connect the audio output from other devices to the camera.
12.SD/ SDHC CARD slot: This is used for updating system software and archiving / accessing
critical images.

points upwards, the device can obtain an IP address from
the DHCP server via the network.
4. STATIC IP: If the switch points down, the device can’t obtain an IP
address from the DHCP server. This option is needed
to configure the network communication settings.
(*In the default factory configuration, this DIP Switch is in the Down
position.)
