is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
- Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
- Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
- Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
Warning: Changes or modifications made to this equipment, not expressly approved by EverFocus or
parties authorized by EverFocus could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.

Precautions
1. Do not install the camera near electric or magnetic fields.
Install the camera away from TV/radio transmitters, magnets, electric motors, transformers and
audio speakers since the electromagnetic fields generated from these devices may distort the video
image or otherwise interfere with camera operation.
2. Never disassemble the camera beyond the recommendations in this manual nor introduce
materials other than those recommended herein.
Improper disassembly or introduction of corrosive materials may result in equipment failure or other
damage.
3. Try to avoid facing the camera toward the sun.
In some circumstances, direct sunlight may cause permanent damage to the sensor and/or internal
circuits, as well as creating unbalanced illumination beyond the capability of the camera to
compensate.
4. Keep the power cord away from water and other liquids and never touch the power cord with wet
hands.
Touching a wet power cord with your hands or touching the power cord with wet hands may result in
electric shock.
5. Never install the camera in areas exposed to oil, gas or solvents.
Oil, gas or solvents may result in equipment failure, electric shock or, in extreme cases, fire.
6. Cleaning
For cameras with interchangeable lenses, do not touch the surface of the sensor directly with the
hands. Use lens tissue or a cotton tipped applicator and ethanol to clean the sensor and the camera
lens. Use a damp soft cloth to remove any dirt from the camera body. Please do not use complex
solvents, corrosive or abrasive agents for cleaning of any part of the camera.
7. Do not operate the camera beyond the specified temperature, humidity or power source ratings.
This camera is suitable for outdoor operation only. Use the camera at temperatures within
-40°C~55°C/-40°F~131°F (DC Power) or -20°C~55°C/-4°F~131°F (PoE), and humidity between 20%
and 85%; this device is not rated as submersible. The input power source is 10-36VDC/PoE. Be sure to
connect the proper + / - polarity and voltage, as incorrect polarity or too high a voltage will likely
cause the camera to fail, and such damage is not covered by the warranty. The use of properly fused
or Class 2 power limited type supplies is highly recommended.
8. Mounting
Use care in selecting a solid mounting surface which will support the weight of the camera plus any
wind, snow, ice or other loading, and securely attach the camera to the mounting surface using
screws and anchors which will properly support the camera. If necessary (e.g. when mounting to
drop ceilings) use a safety wire to provide additional support for the camera.

1. Introduction
The small form-factor mobile dome, EMN series mini mobile IP dome, comes with three models, 1.3 MP, 2
MP and 3 MP, providing up to 15 fps at 2048 x 1536 viewing resolution. Video compression formats
including H.264, MPEG4 and MJPEG are all supported. Equipped with a vandal-proof (IK10) and
weather-proof (IP67) housing, the cameras meet a wide variety of needs for mobile surveillance.
The EMN series mini IP dome features the Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) function, which can provide clear
images even under back light circumstances where intensity of illumination can vary excessively. The DNR
(Digital Noise Reduction) function is designed for reducing the noises in the images, allowing the camera to
better distinguish between real motion and image noise, and thus results in a possibility to store more video
evidence on the connected storage devices.
A built-in micro SDHC card slot and Power over Ethernet (IEEE802.3af) features are also provided. You can
power the camera over the network or by connecting the camera to a 10-36 VDC power supply. Since the
EMN series mini IP dome conforms to ONVIF / PSIA for compatibility with other network video devices, it
interoperates with a wide variety of hardware and software systems. You can also use EverFocus Mobile
Applications to remotely view the live views of the cameras through your handheld devices; or use
EverFocus CMS to remotely manage multiple IP devices connected on the network. The EMN series mini
mobile IP dome is the ideal solution for your mobile surveillance needs.

Test-Out cable to connect a monitor to the Video Test-Out connector (see No.4in 2. Physical
Description) of the camera for adjusting camera angles.
Note: Do Not adjust camera focus yourself as it has already been adjusted (with the dome
cover on) in the factory. It is normal to see the blurry image on the live view when the camera is
connected to a monitor without the dome cover on. The live view image will be focused once
the dome cover has been put back to the camera.

5. Accessing the User Interface
This section explains how to access the Web interface of the camera for configuration.
5.1 Checking the Dynamic IP Address
You can look up the IP address and access the Web interface of the camera using the IP Utility (IPU)
software included in the software CD. Please connect the IP camera in the same LAN of your computer.
1. Install and then start the IPU program . The following dialog box appears.
2. IPU will automatically search the cameras connected in the LAN. The default network values of the
cameras will be displayed. By default, the network protocol of the camera is DHC P.
3. To configure the network settings, select a camera and then click Login/Multi Login to log in.
4. Type the user ID and password. Click OK.
Note:
1. The default user ID is user1 and the default password is 11111111.
2. If you select more than one camera that has the same user ID / password, you will be able
to log in several cameras at once.

5. To change the IP settings, double-click the values in the column and type the numbers or select an
option. Click Set IP Address to save the settings.
Note: Most networks support DHCP protocol, but if you are unsure of your network protocol,
please consult your IP administrator for network configuration details.
6. To access the camera, highlight the camera and click Connect to Selected IP. The Internet Explorer
window pops up.
7. Type the user ID and password to log in. The Live View window of the camera appears.

5.3 Connecting the Camera to the Network
There are three methods to connect the IP camera to the network: Router or LAN Connection, Direct
High-Speed Connection and One-to-One Connection.
Router or LAN connection
This is the most common connection in which the IP camera is connected to a router and allows
multiple users on and off site to see the IP camera on a LAN/WAN (Internet). The camera must be
assigned an IP address that is compatible with its LAN. By setting up port forwarding on the router, you
can remotely access the cameras from outside of the LAN via the Internet. To remotely access the Web
interface of the IP camera, please refer to 7.1.1 Network (DDNS) in the User’s Manual. To set up port
forwarding, please consult the manual of the router.
Straight-through LAN patch cable
Right: Pinout of a straight-through cable.

EMN Series Mini Mobile IP Dome

Direct High-Speed Connection
In a Direct High-Speed Connection, the camera connects directly to a modem without the need for a
router. You need to set the static or dynamic WAN IP address assigned by your ISP (Internet Service
Provider) in the camera’s configuration web pages. To access the camera, just type
“http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx”, where xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is the IP address given by your ISP. If you have a dynamic
IP address, this connection may require that you use DDNS for a reliable connection. Please refer to
7.1.1 Network (DDNS) in the User’s Manual .
One-to-One Connection (Directly from PC to IP Camera)
You can connect directly without using a switch, router or modem. However, only the PC connected to
the camera will be able to view the IP camera. You will also have to manually assign a compatible IP
address to both the computer and the IP camera. Unless the PC has another network connection, the
IP camera will be the only network device visible to the PC. See the diagram below:
Pinout of straight patch cable
Right: Pinout of a crossed-over cable.
