3. Special Attention
(i) The installer must comply with electrical safety
standards. There must be sufficient space between
the camera's power supply and video line and any
high voltage equipment and/or cables.
(ii) To help ensure the camera's life and proper
operation do not point the camera towards the sun
or strong light.

dirt that is difficult to remove, wipe gently with a

mild detergent. Never use strong or abrasive
detergents.
(vi) A 12V DC 1A or 2A power supply must be used. AC
power cannot be applied. AC power will damage
the camera and void warranty. Power supply output
voltage, current, voltage polarity and operating
temperature must match requirement of this
equipment.
(vii) Only qualified installers are allowed to install, test
and disassemble the camera.
(viii) Any change to the camera's lens will affect image
quality.
(ix) The camera is a low voltage product. If installed

BLC (Back Light Compensation): In images where a
bright light source is behind the subject of interest, the
subject would normally appear in silhouette. BLC allows
the camera to adjust the exposure of the entire image
to properly expose the subject in the foreground.
FLC (Front Light Compensation): In images where a
bright light source is in front of the subject of interest,
the subject would normally not visible clearly. FLC
allows the camera to adjust the exposure of the entire
image to properly expose the subject in the
background.
ATW (Auto Tracking White Balance): White Balance
allows the camera to adjust the tone according to the
color temperature of the light source illuminating the
subject. It allows the operator to see objects as they
appear during daylight.
MWB (Manual White Balance): Adjust the red gain
and blue gain manually to produce white accurately
picture.
Day Night Mode:

a. AUTO: Provide color image at daytime and black
and white image at nighttime automatically by AGC
level.
GAIN DAY/NIGHT: Sensitivity from low to high.
GAIN NIGHT/DAY: Sensitivity from low to high.
b. Color: Provide color image both at daytime and
nighttime.
c. MONO=B/W: Provide black and white image both
at daytime and nighttime.
Contrast: Contrast is defined as the separation between
the darkest and brightest areas of the image. Increase
contrast and you increase the separation between dark
and bright, making shadows darker and highlights
brighter. Decrease contrast and you bring the shadows
up and the highlights down to make them closer to one
another.
Sharpness: Sharpness can be defined as edge contrast,
that is, the contrast along edges in a photo. When we
increase sharpness, we increase the contrast only
along/near edges in the photo while leaving smooth
areas of the image alone.
Saturate: Color gain means saturation, it is similar to
contrast, however instead of increasing the separation
between shadows and highlights, it increases the
separation between colors.
3DNR (Digital Noise Reduction): DNR is a technique
of removing image noise from a video signal by
applying a digital comb filter. It reduces the noise that
can be found in low light images and makes images

clearer. This type of filter is sometimes confused by
motion, resulting in blur trails.
Standard:
a. CVBS: PAL and NTSC, its NTSC in USA.
b. FHD modes: Choose 1080P 30 for NTSC system; its
NTSC in default.
D-WDR: Digital WDR (D-WDR) is a software-based
technique that optimizes image quality by adjusting the
gamma (γ) value to enhance dark areas.
FUNC:
Privacy: Apply a mask to an area you want to hide.
Useful in areas where a camera can see into areas that
are not relevant to security needs.
1. On/Off Optional.
2. Support up to 4 areas, position and size adjustable.

*Stated maximum IR range is based on ideal conditions in
typical outdoor environment. Actual range and image
clarity depends on installation location, viewing area and
light reflection / absorption level of object.
Trouble Shooting
a. Night vision image very dark, could not see the
object clear
(i) Please check if the IR light is on. If the ambient light
from side is bright, then it may cause the camera
turn off the IR light, then you could not see the
object in dark area. Please adjust the camera
direction to turn on the infrared Led.
b. No picture or only black and white picture after
applying power
(ii) Check all plugs and cables are securely connected
to the proper connectors.

(iii) Ensure your power supply is providing the correct
voltage and current.
(iv) Ensure switch the camera video output mode to
correspond your DVR video type.
(v) Ensure your AHD DVR is 1080P or 1080N, CVI and
TVI DVR is 1080P.
c. The picture has ripples
(i) Check to see if the power supply is experiencing AC
ripple, if so a filter may be required.
(ii) Determine if the monitor is faulty.
(iii) Determine if other peripheral equipment is causing
ripple and if so make the necessary adjustments.
d. The picture appears smeared
(i) The power supply voltage level may be unstable,
therefore, try another power supply.
(ii) Ensure the cables are correctly connected and/or
the cables are of the correct impedance.
e. The picture background continuously changes
color
(i) A fluorescent lamp's magnetic field may cause color
roll, therefore, reduce the number of fluorescent
lamps or increase the distance between the camera
and the lamps.
(ii) Sometimes the environment light is just at a critical
point for day/night switch, please just wait a few
minutes.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What else do I need to make it work?
A: This camera can output 1080P AHD, 1080P CVI,
1080P TVI and 960H signals, so you need:
1. One of 1080P(N) AHD DVR, 1080P CVI DVR, 1080P
TVI DVR or 960H analog DVR.
2. 12V DV power supply.
3. Coaxial video cable with BNC connector.
Q: Does this camera work with 720P DVR system?
A: No, the video signal is 2MP 1080P, it could not work
with 720P DVR.
Some batches of cameras could support 720P DVR,
please switch to CVBS mode, then go to OSD menu,
check VIDEO SETTING-STANDARD, if there is 720p, then
it could work, make sure select 720P 30 for NTSC.

Q: Will the OSD switch stay in same mode if camera
is powered off, or do you have to reset mode each
time you power it back up?
A: It will stay in the same output mode, do not need to
reset each time.
A: Why the color is black and white at daytime?
A: Make sure the camera video signal match your DVR.
First check the DVR signal type, then adjust the OSD
joystick to corresponding signal mode to make it match.
Make sure the camera and DVR are with same video
format, both NTSC or both PAL.
Q: Will this camera work with other brand DVRs?
A: Yes, it could work with most brand DVRs, please
make sure the DVR resolution and signal type is proper.
Q: I have an SDI system, is this compatible?
A: No.
Q: How to reset camera when accidentally change
NTSC to PAL and signal is gone
A: Change DVR from NTSC to PAL, the signal will be
back, then change the camera from PAL to NTSC by
OSD menu, then change the DVR from PAL to NTSC
back.
Q: Is there a way to turn off the IR? I have sufficient
light at night and would prefer that the IR not come
on at all.
A: There is NO switch to turn off the IR led, the light
sensor detect ambient light constantly and turn on/off
the IR led automatically.
If you have sufficient light at night and would prefer
color image, then press OSD joystick to start On-

Screen-Display, choose DAY/NIGHT and switch COLOR
mode, then it will be color image at night, but the IR
light will be on if the ambient light is not bright enough.
2 Ways to avoid the IR light:
1. Make the ambient light bright enough and the light
sensor could turn off IR led.
2. Stick opaque black material on the glass to hide the
IR light.
Q: Could I mount it behind window glass?
A: It is not recommended, window glass could reflect IR
light at night which will ruin the image completely.
If you must mount it behind window glass, please check
the QA just above this question.
