April 2, 2019
3 Key Features
3.1 Display Sequence
Display Sequence allows the user to rearrange the order of the scenes displayed when the camera is in
360 mode. This is useful if the user prefers to display the scenes in a unique order or is limited on how to
position the camera when mounting and would like the scenes to display in a specific order.
Figure 1 - Display Sequence
On the bottom right, select which camera scene you would like to display in which square (use reference
of sequence at the bottom of the webpage).
3.2 270 Mode
270 Mode allows the user to disable one of the lenses of the camera in 360 mode. This may be useful in
installations at the corner of buildings or similar scenes.

3.3 Fifth Imager
The Fifth Imager lens (FLIR-CM-IMG5-63P) is an add-on accessory for the CM-6308-P1-I. It allows for a
fifth lens to be easily attached to the center of the camera to allow for additional coverage.
Note: The camera has to be re-discovered on UVMS after attaching the accessory.
See CM_IMG5_63P_QIG for more information.
Figure 3 - 5th Imager
3.4 Improved ONVIF Support
ONVIF support continues to get tighter and more advanced. The camera is gearing up with support for
ONVIF Profile G with FLIR UVMS not far behind. This will allow for full integration between FLIR
cameras an VMS for a true SoE integration.
3.5 Firmware Verification
The 2019 release firmware file now includes an encrypted checksum identifier. By using the checksum
validation software of your choice, you can submit the SHA-256 hash information to FLIR Enterprise
Support for confirmation as to the validity of the file.
3.6 Enhanced Power Protection
The camera is supported on a PoE+ or 24VAC power sources only. If the camera is connected to an
incorrect power source, the camera would power up with limited features (MJPEG dark video displayed
at 1 fps, SD card, IR LEDs, Heater, and USB port all disabled) and display a message to the user that
the power level is inadequate.

April 2, 2019
By default, the camera is set to auto detect the connected power source’s power level. If the camera
detects insufficient levels and the power source does not support enhanced network negotiations
(LLDP), the camera may reboot up to 5 times in 20 minutes and enter a limited features state, as above.
The user has an option on the Basic Configuration page to manually set the camera on PoE+. This may
be useful in cases where the camera is connected to a valid power source, such as UPoE, but initializes
on the limited features mode. This is because the camera is only looking for PoE+ or 24VAC power
sources, so it needs to be manually set on ‘PoE+’.
Note that if the camera changes its power level, for example, by turning on IR LEDs or heater, it would
consume additional power, and if that power is not available, it may change its power state to the limited
features state or reboot several times, as described above.
