IP camera.
3. Double-click your GV-IP camera in the GV-IP Device Utility list. This
dialog box appears.

Note for Adjusting Focus and Zoom
When adjusting the Focus and Zoom Screws on Bullet Camera, do not
over tighten the Focus and Zoom screws. The screws only need to be as
tight as your finger can do it. It is not necessary to use any tools to get
them tighter. Doing so can damage the structure of lens.
For example,
Zoom Screw
Focus Screw
The maximum torque value for all the zoom and focus screws is 0.049 N.m

viii
Note for Installing Camera Outdoor
When installing the cameras outdoor, be sure that:
1. The camera is set up above the junction box to prevent water from
entering the camera along the cables.
2. Any PoE, power, audio and I/O cables are waterproofed using
waterproof silicon rubber or the like.

ix
Note for Closing the Bullet Camera
Cover
To ensure that the camera performs its full capacity against water and dust,
tightly close and lock the camera cover as indicated below.
Note for Silica Gel Bags
1. The silica gel bag loses its effectiveness when the dry camera is
opened. To prevent the lens from fogging up, replace the silica gel
bag every time you open the camera, and conceal the gel bag in
camera within 2 minutes of exposing to open air.
2. When the camera is shipped, a silica gel bag will be included inside
the camera. For the first-time user, replace the silica gel bag prior to
the installation to avoid foggy live view.

Chapter 1 Bullet Camera (Part I)
The Bullet Cameras are specifically designed for outdoors. They are
weatherproof (IP67) and equipped with IR LEDs for infrared illumination in
night vision applications. The models described in this chapter use P-Iris,
which allows for precise control of exposure in producing images with
better clarity and contrast.
The WDR Pro models enhance images by processing contrasting intensity
of light. The super low lux models can produce color live view in near
darkness. The motorized varifocal lens models allow users to adjust the
focus and zoom through the Web interface. The arctic models can
withstand extreme temperatures (-40°C ~ 50°C / -40°F ~ 122°F).
