Product overview
The CamPlus 2 Plastic Dome IP Camera (Figure 1) is designed to operate from a PC on a network (10BT/
100B-TX). Once you configure your PC’s network settings and your LAN, you can use a web browser to
monitor both video and audio.
Note: You must configure the network settings of the PC and its network environment in order to monitor images and audio
from the camera on the PC. You must also have a web browser installed on the PC.
Figure 1. Camera
Features
Camera features include:
• The 3.6x varifocal lens provides variation of the angular field of view when installing the camera.
• The 1/4-inch progressive CCD solid-state image sensor with VGA resolution (640 x 480 pixels)
provides high-fidelity motion image scanning in high-resolution.
• MPEG-4 images can be monitored while recording JPEG images.
• When you connect with a PoE (power over Ethernet, IEEE802.3af compliant) device, power is
supplied when you connect the LAN cable.
• Audio captured by the built-in microphone can be monitored with your PC via a network.
• The camera can be installed on a ceiling or a wall using the provided camera mount bracket. When
using an optional ceiling mount bracket, embedded installation on a ceiling is available.
• You can set up to four designated surveillance areas, and have an alarm issued when motion is
detected.
• The FTP backup function and recording of each log on an optional SD memory card are available
using the SD memory card slot.
Note: Performance with this camera has been checked using Panasonic SD memory cards up to 2GB. If another SD
memory card is used, this camera may not operate properly. The SD High Capacity (SDHC) card is not compatible with

Follow these installation guidelines:
• Install the camera indoors. The camera is not meant for outdoor use.
• Do not install the camera in direct heat or in areas of high humidity. Install the camera in an
environment where the temperature stays between 41 and 95°F (5 and 35°C) and the humidity stays
below 90% (when the power is on).
• Do not block any ventilation openings.
• Keep the power cords away from obstacles. Do not walk on or pinch the power cords, especially at the
plugs, convenience receptacles, or near the exit point.
• Only use accessories specified by the manufacturer.
• Do not use near strong electric (TV/radio antenna) or magnetic fields (motor or transformer), since
audio and video distortion can occur.
• When you install the camera just above the photogenic subject (Figure 5), it may be difficult to adjust
angular field-of-view focusing around the subject. To easily adjust focusing, increase the angle from
the camera to the subject.
Figure 5. Camera location for adjustment
Avoid installing the camera in the following locations:
• Locations where a chemical agent is used such as a swimming pool.
• Locations subject to steam and oil smoke.
• Locations near flammable gas or vapor.
• Locations where radiation or x-ray emissions are produced.
• Locations where corrosive gas is produced.
• Locations where it may be damaged by briny air such as seashores.
• Locations subject to vibrations.
• Locations subject to condensation as the result of severe changes in temperature (the dome cover may
become foggy or condensation may form on the cover).
• Locations with a lot of dust, you may shorten the life of sensitive internal parts.
Before you start the installation, prepare the required devices and cables and turn all devices off to ensure there
is no power to the camera.
CAUTION: Only connect this camera to a 12 VDC or 24 VAC Class 2 power supply. Be sure to connect the grounding lead
to the GND terminal.
When you connect with a PoE (power over Ethernet, IEEE802.3af compliant) device, power is supplied when you
connect the LAN cable.

Mount bracket installation
Figure 6 shows the dimensions of the camera mount bracket.
Figure 6. Camera mount bracket dimensions
To mount the camera mount bracket, do the following:
1. Make a hole in the wall/ceiling. If the camera is directly mounted on a wall/ceiling, align the camera
mounting position with the position of the cable access and make the hole (Figure 7).
Figure 7. Bracket hole dimensions
Note: The screw holes of the camera mount bracket are also designed to allow you to mount the bracket on a two-gang
junction box.
2. Secure the camera mount bracket (Figure 8). Use a sufficient quantity of mounting bolts appropriate to
the mounting surface. Tighten the bolts securely to ensure that the installed mount bracket can support
more than five times the weight of the camera.
Figure 8. Fasten the bracket
If the mounting surface is too weak to support the total weight, you must reinforce the area.

Camera installation
Before starting the installation, turn off the power of the devices including the camera and the PC or disconnect
the power supply.
To install the camera, do the following:
1. Detach the dome cover from the main body (Figure 10) and remove the buffer (cushioning).
Figure 10. Detach the cover
2. Line up the ends of the cables (power cord, LAN cable, and the cable from an external device) and the
safety wire, and then bundle them using the cable tie provided. See Figure 4 on page 7.
3. Attach the safety wire to the camera. After attaching the safety wire to the camera, pull the safety wire
and confirm that the loop at the end of the safety wire is securely hooked on the safety wire holder
(Figure 11).
Figure 11. Attach safety wire
Note: The safety wire is designed to support only the weight of the camera if the camera falls.
4. Connect the power terminal, a LAN cable, and the external I/O terminal. See Connections on page 15.

Power over Ethernet (PoE). When using PoE, connect a LAN cable (CAT5 or better) between a PoE
device (such as a PoE hub) and the network connector of the camera.
• Use all four pairs (eight pins) of the LAN cable.
• The maximum cable length is 328 ft. (100 m).
• Make sure the PoE device you use is compliant with IEEE802.3af standard.
• When connecting both the 12 VDC/24 VAC power supply and the PoE device for power supply,
the PoE will be used for power supply.
• If the LAN cable is disconnected, wait at least 2 seconds before re-inserting the cable to ensure the
PoE device supplies power.
3. Connect a LAN cable (CAT5 or better) to the network connector on the mounting side of the camera
(Figure 20).
