Installation
Installation environment
When installing your product, consider these factors:
• Electrical: Install electrical wiring carefully. It should be done by qualified
service personnel. Always use a proper PoE switch or a 12 VDC or 24 VAC
UL listed Class 2 or CE certified power supply to power the camera. Do not
overload the power cord or adapter.
• Ventilation: Ensure that the location planned for the installation of the
camera is well ventilated.
• Temperature: Do not operate the camera beyond the specified temperature,
humidity or power source ratings. The operating temperature of the camera is
between -30 to +50°C (-22 to +122°F). Humidity is below 90%.
• Moisture: Do not expose the camera to rain or moisture, or try to operate it in
wet areas. Turn the power off immediately if the camera is wet and ask a
qualified service person for servicing. Moisture can damage the camera and
also create the danger of electric shock.
• Servicing: Do not attempt to service this camera yourself. Any attempt to
dismantle or remove the covers from this product will invalidate the warranty
and may also result in serious injury. Refer all servicing to qualified service
personnel.
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire or electronic shock, do not expose the
camera to rain or moisture and do not remove the cover or back.
Package contents
The camera is shipped with the following items:
• The camera assembly
• 1 channel passive video transceiver
• AC power wiring harness
• 150 mm DC jack to terminal adapter
Cable requirements
For proper operation, adhere to the following cable and power requirements for
the cameras. Category 5 cabling or better is recommended. All network cabling
must be installed according to applicable codes and regulations.

Setting up the camera
Note: If the light source where the camera is installed experiences rapid, wide-
variations in lighting, the camera may not operate as intended.
To quickly put the camera into operation:
1. Connect the lens to the camera.
2. Prepare the mounting surface and mount the camera to the wall/ceiling using
the appropriate fasteners.
3. Connect the cables to the camera.
4. Connect a CCTV monitor to the system to program the camera.
5. Set the camera’s DIP switches, which are located on the rear of the camera,
to suit the camera’s location. See “Setting the camera DIP switches” on page
7.
6. Set up the camera’s network and streaming parameters so that the camera
can be controlled over the network. See “Accessing the camera over the
internet” on page 10.

Connecting analog cables
Connect a standard CCTV monitor to the system to adjust the quality of the video
image using the DIP switches. The DIP switches can also be adjusted when
connected to the IP system.
To connect the cables:
1. Connect a coaxial cable from the camera’s BNC connector to a CCTV
monitor or video recording device.
2. Connect a PoE switch, a 12 VDC or 24 VAC power supply to the power input.
Do not connect both the PoE connection and DC or AC connection at the
same time.
Setting the camera DIP switches
You can set up six camera functions using the DIP switch bank on the rear of the
camera. Figure 4 below shows the DIP switch layout. See “Description of the DIP
switch settings” on page 8 for information on these functions.

Description of the DIP switch settings
White balance (WB)
White balance tells the camera what the color white looks like. Based on this
information, the camera will then display all colors correctly.
There are two methods to determine the WB:
• ATW (auto tracking white balance). The value used depends on the lighting
condition selected. It ensures reliable color reproduction when lighting
conditions change frequently.
• PTL (push-to-lock) white balance. WB is fixed at the moment the DIP switch it
set to ON.
Backlight compensation (BLC)
The backlight compensation function improves image quality when the
background illumination is high. It prevents the object in the center from
appearing too dark.
AI/AE exposure
Use this setting to select the method the camera uses to adjust to different light
levels.
Day/Night
This function controls if the camera switches to day/night mode. The camera
produces high-quality color video during the day or when light levels are high. It
then switches monochrome and removes the infrared filter to improve IR
sensitivity at night or when light levels are low.
Resolution
High resolution produces higher quality images but also increases the file size of
video images.
Flickerless control
Flickerless control eliminates the flicker caused by the differences between the
frequencies (60 Hz) of the ionization of the gas in a fluorescent light bulb with
that of the vertical frequency (59.95 Hz) in the camera. Although the difference is
very small, it results in a slight flicker at the top of the monitor scene or, in video
over IP applications, it would be interpreted as motion. Flickerless control helps
reduce the file size and transfer bit rates of compressed video images.
Reset button
Use this button to reset the camera to factory defaults including camera and
network settings. With the camera powered on press the red reset button for 10
to 15 seconds. The red LED indicator light flashes when the reset signal is
accepted.
