Chapter 1 Overview
1.1 System Requirement
System requirement of web browser accessing is as follows:
Operating System: Microsoft Windows XP SP1 and above version/Vista/Win7/Server 2003/Server
2008 32bits
CPU: Intel Pentium IV 3.0 GHz or higher
RAM: 1G or higher
Display: 1024 × 768 resolution or higher
Web Browser: Internet Explorer 8.0 and above version, Apple Safari 5.02 and above version,
Mozilla Firefox 5 and above version and Google Chrome 18 and above versions.
1.2 Functions
The functions vary depending on different camera models.
 PTZ Limits
The camera can be programmed to move within the PTZ limits (left/right, up/down).
 Scan Modes
The camera provides 5 scan modes: auto scan, tilt scan, frame scan, random scan and panorama
scan.
 Presets
A preset is a predefined image position. When the preset is called, the camera will automatically
move to the defined position. The presets can be added, modified, deleted and called.
 Label Display
The on-screen label of the preset title, azimuth/elevation, zoom, time and camera name can be
displayed on the monitor. The displays of time and camera name can be programmed.
 Auto Flips
In manual tracking mode, when a target object goes directly beneath the camera, the video will
automatically flips 180 degrees in horizontal direction to maintain continuity of tracking. This
function can also be realized by auto mirror image depending on different camera models.
 Privacy Mask
This function allows you to block or mask certain area of a scene, for preventing the personal
privacy from recording or live viewing. A masked area will move with pan and tilt functions and
automatically adjust in size as the lens zooms telephoto and wide.
 3D Positioning
In the client software, use the left key of mouse to click on the desired position in the video
image and drag a rectangle area in the lower right direction, then the camera system will move
the position to the center and allow the rectangle area to zoom in. Use the left key of mouse to

User Manual of Network Speed Dome

2
drag a rectangle area in the upper left direction to move the position to the center and allow the
rectangle area to zoom out.
 Proportional Pan/Tilt
Proportional pan/tilt automatically reduces or increases the pan and tilt speeds according to the
amount of zoom. At telephoto zoom settings, the pan and tilt speeds will be slower than at wide
zoom settings. This keeps the image from moving too fast on the live view image when there is a
large amount of zoom.
 Auto Focus
The auto focus enables the camera to focus automatically to maintain clear video images.
 Day/Night Auto Switch
The cameras deliver color images during the day. And as light diminishes at night, the cameras
switch to night mode and deliver black and white images with high quality.
 Slow Shutter
In slow shutter mode, the shutter speed will automatically slow down in low illumination
conditions to maintain clear video images by extending the exposure time. The feature can be
enabled or disabled.
 Backlight Compensation (BLC)
If you focus on an object against strong backlight, the object will be too dark to be seen clearly.
The BLC (Backlight Compensation) function can compensate light to the object in the front to
make it clear, but this causes the over-exposure of the background where the light is strong.
 Wide Dynamic Range (WDR)
The wide dynamic range (WDR) function helps the camera provide clear images even under back
light circumstances. When there are both very bright and very dark areas simultaneously in the
field of view, WDR balances the brightness level of the whole image and provide clear images
with details.
 White Balance (WB)
White balance can remove the unrealistic color casts. White balance is the white rendition
function of the camera to adjust the color temperature according to the environment
automatically.
 Patrol
A patrol is a memorized series of pre-defined preset function. The scanning speed between two
presets and the dwell time at the preset are programmable.
 Pattern
A pattern is a memorized series of pan, tilt, zoom, and preset functions. By default the focus and
iris are in auto status during the pattern is being memorized.
 Power Off Memory
The camera supports the power off memory capability with the predefined resume time. It allows
the camera to resume its previous position after power is restored.
 Scheduled Task
A time task is a preconfigured action that can be performed automatically at a specific date and
time. The programmable actions include: auto scan, random scan, patrol 1-8 ,pattern 1-4, preset
1-8,frame scan, panorama scan, tilt scan, day, night, reboot, PT adjust, Aux Output, etc.
 Park Action
This feature allows the camera to start a predefined action automatically after a period of

User Manual of Network Speed Dome

inactivity.
 User Management
The camera allows you to edit users with different levels of permission, in the admin login status.
Multiple users are allowed to access and control the same network camera via network
simultaneously.
 3D Digital Noise Reduction
Comparing with the general 2D digital noise reduction, the 3D digital noise reduction function
processes the noise between two frames besides processing the noise in one frame. The noise
will be much less and the video will be clearer.

2.2.2 Dynamic IP Connection
Before you start:
Apply a dynamic IP from an ISP. With the dynamic IP address, you can connect the network
camera to a modem or a router.
 Connecting the network camera via a router
Steps:
1. Connect the network camera to the router.
2. In the camera, assign a LAN IP address, the subnet mask and the gateway. Refer to Section
2.1.2 for detailed LAN configuration.
3. In the router, set the PPPoE user name, password and confirm the password.
 For your privacy and to better protect your system against security risks, we strongly
recommend the use of strong passwords for all functions and network devices. The
password should be something of your own choosing (using a minimum of 8 characters,
including upper case letters, lower case letters, numbers and special characters) in order
to increase the security of your product.
 Proper configuration of all passwords and other security settings is the responsibility of
the installer and/or end-user.
4. Set port mapping. E.g. 80, 8000 and 554 ports. The steps for port mapping vary depending on
different routers. Call the router manufacturer for assistance with port mapping.
5. Apply a domain name from a domain name provider.
6. Configure the DDNS settings in the setting interface of the router.
7. Visit the camera via the applied domain name.
 Connecting the network camera via a modem
Purpose:
This camera supports the PPPoE auto dial-up function. The camera gets a public IP address by
ADSL dial-up after the camera is connected to a modem. You need to configure the PPPoE
parameters of the network camera. Refer to Section 6.1.1 Configuring PPPoE Settings for
detailed configuration.

User Manual of Network Speed Dome

The obtained IP address is dynamically assigned via PPPoE, so the IP address always changes after
rebooting the camera. To solve the inconvenience of the dynamic IP, you need to get a domain
name from the DDNS provider (E.g. DynDns.com). Follow the steps below for normal domain
name resolution and private domain name resolution to solve the problem.
 Normal Domain Name Resolution
Steps:
1. Apply a domain name from a domain name provider.
2. Configure the DDNS settings in the DDNS Settings interface of the network camera. Refer to
Section 6.1.1 Configuring DDNS Settings for detailed configuration.
3. Visit the camera via the applied domain name.
