4 Connecting the Camera
The connections (8–13) and the cable split-
ter(7) are not weatherproof; protect them
accordingly.
1) Connect the camera via the RJ45 connector
(8) to an individual computer, a local com-
puter network or, e.g. via a router, to larger
computer networks (Internet).
2)
For audio transmission via the network,
connect an audio source with line level (e.g.
microphone with preamplifier) to the RCA
connector “Audio Input” (10).
3)
For audio reproduction, connect a head-
phone amplifier or a sound system to the
RCA connector “Audio Output” (11).
4) To evaluate an alarm device (e. g. photoelec-
tric sensor), connect the pins (12) IN 1 and IN
COM via a normally open contact or normally
closed contact (to be selected in the cam-
era settings). A second alarm device can be
connected to the contacts IN 2 and IN COM.
5) To switch a device (e. g. via a relay), connect
the switching output of the camera via the
pins (12) OUT 1 and OUT COM. Select the
switching characteristic (normally open con-
tact/normally closed contact, pulse) in the
camera settings (☞chapter 6). The maxi-
mum load of the output is ⎓12V/300 mA.
6)
For independent video recordings of the
camera, release the two screws, open the
cover(1) of the compartment on the rear
of the camera housing and insert a memory
card of the type “microSD[HC/XC]” (128GB
max.). Push the card (contacts to the bottom)
into the slot (14) until it engages. The red
LED (16) will light up during operation when
a card has been inserted. Never remove the
card while a recording is being made! To re-
move the card, push the card into the slot
until it disengages. Tightly close the cover
again. Make sure that the gasket is correctly
positioned in the groove of the cover.
7)
To ground the camera housing, a ground
cable (13) is provided.
8) Connect the power supply unit provided or
another regulated 12V power supply unit
with a permanent rating of 2A via a DC
power connector ⌀5.5/2.1mm (outside/
inside) to the connector (9). Always observe
the correct polarity: centre contact = +. Con-
nect the mains cable to the power supply unit
and to a mains socket (230V/50Hz).
Alternatively, use the network cable
(Power over Ethernet IEEE 802.3at “PoE+”)
to supply the camera with power.
5 Connecting the Camera
toaNetwork
To be able to directly address the camera for
configuration via computer, its IP address is fac-
tory-set to 192.168.0.120.
If you do not know the current address of
the camera, start the program “IPSearch.exe”
(available on the Monacor homepage: www.
monacor.com Support Downloads) to find
the camera in the network.
1) To start the search, click the button “Start”
of the tab “Multicast Search”. The list on
the left will show the cameras found in the
network (☞fig. 4).
2) To stop the search, click the button “Stop”.
3) Select the camera from the list. The current
settings of this camera can be found on the
right.
4) Change the settings as required:
IP address, subnet mask and gateway address
can be defined as static values (select the op-
tion “Device uses the following IP address”).
Enter a unique IP address for each camera.
If a DHCP server is available in the network
(e.g. in the router or network video recorder),
this server will be able to automatically make
settings for the camera (select the option
“Device obtains an IP address automati-
cally”). The values assigned automatically are
highlighted in grey and cannot be changed.
5) Click the button “Modify”. After successful
transmission of the modifications, the mes-
sage “Modify success!” will appear.
6) Before you start a new search, click the but-
ton “Clear All” to delete the list.
