Overview
GANZ’s outdoor day/night network camera ZN-BT3312 is equipped with a wide dynamic range
CMOS sensor to cope with any challenging lighting conditions�
Designed for outdoor 24-hour surveillance, ZN-BT3312 features the basics of day and night
and vandal-proof functions that users can easily build up a cost-effective IP surveillance system
without additional accessories�With a removable IR-cut filter and built-in IR illuminators, up to
15m, it can automatically remove the lter and turn on the IR illuminators during the nighttime to
accept IR illumination for low light sensitivity�Meanwhile, the IP66-rated integrated housing shields
this camera from dust and water, allowing it to be applied in harsh weather conditions of outdoor
environments�
ZN-BT3312 with WDR (Wide dynamic range) feature can be very helpful to cope with very
challenging lighting conditions�It is capable of capturing both of the dark part and bright part and
combining the differences into a scene to generate a highly realistic image as the original scene�
Because it preserves as much information in the video as possible, ZN-BT3312 helps provide
video quality closer to the capabilities of the human eye� Consequently, it is largely applied in highly
contrast environments such as lobby entrances, parking lots, ATM, loading areas and much more�
Incorporating numbers of advanced features including simultaneous dual streams, 802�3af
compliant PoE, two-way audio by SIP protocol, RS-485 interface for scanners or pan/tilts driver
connection, and HTTPS encrypted data transmission, GANZ ZN-BT3312 allows users to boost
your robust IP surveillance system by reproducing clear images in proper color in extreme high-
contrast environments for your indoor/outdoor security and monitoring applications�
Read Before Use
The use of surveillance devices may be prohibited by law in your country�The Network Camera
is not only a high-performance web-ready camera but also can be part of a exible surveillance
system� It is the user’s responsibility to ensure that the operation of such devices is legal before

The Network Camera supports MPEG-4 and MJPEG dual streams�For more information,

MPEG-4 Media Options
Select to stream video or audio data� This works only when the video mode is set to MPEG-4�
MPEG-4 Protocol Options
Depending on your network environment, there are four transmission modes of MPEG-4
streaming:
UDP unicast: This protocol allows for more real-time audio and video streams�However, network
packets may be lost due to network burst trafc and images may be broken. Activate UDP connection
when occasions require time-sensitive responses and the video quality is less important�Note that each
unicast client connecting to the server takes up additional bandwidth and the Network Camera allows up
to ten simultaneous accesses�
UDP multicast: This protocol allows multicast-enabled routers to forward network packets to all clients
requesting streaming media�This helps to reduce the network transmission load of the Network Camera
while serving multiple clients at the same time. Note that to utilize this feature, the Network Camera must
be configured to enable multicast streaming at the same time�For more information, please refer to
RTSP Streaming on page 30�

User's Manual - 19
TCP: This protocol guarantees the complete delivery of streaming data and thus provides better video
quality� Nevertheless, the downside with this protocol is that its real-time effect is not as good as that of
the UDP protocol�
HTTP: This protocol allows the same quality as TCP protocol and you don’t need to open specic port
for streaming under some network environments. Users inside a rewall can utilize this protocol to allow
streaming data to come through�
MP4 Saving Options
Users can record the live video as they are watching it by clicking Start MP4 Recording on
the main page. Here, you can specify the storage destination and le name.
