Improper disassembly or introduction o corrosive materials may result in equipment ailure
or other damage.
3. Try to avoid pointing t e camera toward t e sun.
In some circumstances, direct sunlight may cause permanent damage to the sensor and/or
internal circuits. It may also create unbalanced illumination that may be beyond the camera’s
ability to compensate.
4. Keep t e power cable away from water and ot er liquids. Never touc t e power cable
wit wet ands.
Touching a wet power cable with your hands or touching the power cable with wet hands
may result in electric shock.

5. Never install t e camera in areas exposed to oil, gas or solvents.
Oil, gas or solvents may cause equipment ailure, electric shock or, in extreme cases, ire.
6. Cleaning
For cameras with interchangeable lenses, do not touch the sur ace o the sensor directly
with your hands. Use lens tissue or a cotton tipped applicator and ethanol to clean the
sensor and the camera lens. Use a damp so t cloth to remove any dirt rom the camera body.
Do not use complex solvents, or corrosive or abrasive agents to clean any part o the camera.
7. Do not operate t e camera beyond t e specified temperature, umidity and power source
levels. T is camera is suitable for indoor and outdoor operation only.
Use the camera at temperatures between -40°C~50°C (-40°F~122°F) in an IP66 complaint
environment. This device is not rated as submersible. The input power source should be
12VDC or 24VAC. T e use of a properly fused or “Class 2 Limited Power Source” power
supply is ig ly recommended.
8. Mounting
Select a solid mounting sur ace that will support the weight o the camera and any
additional loading rom wind, snow, ice or other actors. Securely attach the camera to the
mounting sur ace using screws and anchors that will properly support the camera. I
necessary, (e.g. when mounting the camera to a drop ceiling, or unsupported ceiling) use a
sa ety wire to provide additional support or the camera.

1. INTRODUCTION
The EZH5242 is an HDcctv outdoor IR bullet camera with true Day/Night capability in an IP66
vandal resistant housing. Based on a 1/3” Panasonic 2.1 megapixel progressive scan sensor and
2.8~10mm vari ocal megapixel lens or HD 1080p resolution 100% digital images, it delivers
vastly superior video quality compared to traditional CCTV images. This superior resolution not
only captures more critical evidentiary in ormation, but the inherent ability or megapixel
video also extends the area o coverage, expedites completion o investigations, resolves
complaints and reduces both capital and operational costs. Designed with 44 long li espan IR
LEDs, the EZH5242 can capture images at up to 84m /275 eet in low or no light environments.
This highly advanced imaging system also incorporates state o the art optical enhancement
technologies: EverFocus Tone Reproduction (ETR) electronically balances lighting in
challenging or unbalanced lighting conditions; Lens Shading Compensation compensates to
eliminate arti icial shadows caused by attenuation o light as it traverses the outer portions o
the lens; EverFocus Enhanced Contrast Technology (EFECT) dramatically improves imaging in
reduced visibility conditions, cutting through smoke and og that would blind other camera
systems; Polestar SENS-UP light low enhancement or ull motion color in low light conditions
without ghosting combines with EFALCONR - EverFocus Adaptive Luminance Compensated
Optimized Noise Reduction to maximize image luminance and clarity while conserving DVR
disk storage space; digital zoom with electronic PTZ to ine tune ield o view; image lip and
rotate, and much, much more.
No major upgrade to the IT network is required to deploy this power ul technology; HDcctv
cameras communicate at digital speeds up to 1.5Gb/s over existing or new coaxial cable (RG59
or other types or longer distances), using industry standard BNC connectors. With its 3-axis
positioning, vari ocal 2.8~10mm megapixel auto iris lens, IP66 operation down to -40 degrees
and easy mounting to a 4” electrical box, 1” conduit or directly to any lat sur ace the EZH5242
delivers lexible, robust coverage in a wide range o demanding surveillance environments
while delivering stunning HD image quality.
