Introduction 1
4 HD77 Installation Guide
Introduction 1
The Paradox HD77 is an HD video & audio camera with superior PIR detector. HD77 is a high-performance HD
720p color camera, and a microphone with an integrated PIR detector. It offers superior motion detection with
video verification, for areas up to 12m x 12m (40ft x 40ft).
The HD77 enables streaming Video On Demand (VOD) and Record On Demand (ROD) functionality using the
Insight Application. Video and JPEG outputs can be sent to the IPRS-7 monitoring software and to the user's
email to help determine the cause of an alarm, and apply an appropriate response to the situation.
The HD77 provides 24/7 continuous monitoring of your property. The high definition digital video camera
transmits a color signal at 360p resolution during normal light conditions. During periods of low light the HD77
supplies IR illumination that supports the HD77 camera down to zero lumens of light with black and white
signal transmission.
The high quality microphone supplements the video with superior quality audio.
The system’s master user can ensure privacy by setting viewing rights by user. This can be done through the
Paradox Insight app. The HD77 also increases privacy and security by storing video recordings within the
module. This way any recordings are more secure than video files stored on a pubic or private server. The
module only records upon a detection event or when Record On Demand is enabled.
The HD77 is user-centered and respects user privacy. There are 2 levels of authorization. The lower level
authorized users receive 15 minutes of viewing after an alarm. The higher level authorized users have unlimited
viewing and authorization to Record On Demand.
Recording only takes place when an alarm is triggered, or when an authorized user implements Record On
Demand. Each time ROD is enabled the recording is limited to 5 minutes. Images sent to the CMS include only
those from actual alarm events, as defined during installation. Recordings of events remain in control of the
user and are stored within the HD77 device. The master user can download the recordings at his convenience
and to his preferred files location.

Hardware Installation 2
This section explains the hardware requirements and mounting instructions.
2.1 Requirements
Before you start the installation make sure you have all of the required infrastructure, tools and software.
2.1.1 Hardware
Note: A singleCAT5 or higher cable can be used to wire a single HD77 camera. This cable includes 2 twisted
pairs for the 4-wire combus and 2 twisted pairs for the Ethernet lines. When using this option the cable
length is limited to 50 meters. When using this option the cable length is limited to 50 meters.
Note: An alternate wiring scheme is to wire the HD77 with two separate cables. 1 Ethernet cable and 1– 4-
wire combus.
In order to take full advantage of all that the Insight Solution has to offer ensure that the mounting location has
the following infrastructure:
• 4-wire combus cable that connects to the EVOHD
• Ethernet line that connects to a router or Ethernet switch
• a router with enough ports to connect all of the cameras (1 port for each camera) plus 1 port if you are
using an IP150, 1 port for your computer, and 1port for the incoming internet connection
If the router does not have enough ports you will also need a switch.
The router will need to be configured for port forwarding for the HD77. Each HD77 in the system will
have a different IP address and each one will need port forwarding to two ports of its IP address. One
from the external IP address:port (any port above port #1024) to the internal <IP address>:80 and
one for <IP address>:443.
The installer will also need to have the following job specific tools and equipment:
• a laptop with Windows 7
• a connection from your laptop to the system either by:
• 307USB cable
OR
• IP150 Internet module to connect to the EVOHD serial port

Configure IP Router 3
16 HD77 Installation Guide
Configure IP Router 3
With the IP150 and Cameras wired to the router, perform the port forwarding and reserve the IP addresses of
the IP150 and the HD77cameras.
Determine if this job site has a network administrator. See if he is able to assist you in this part of the
installation.
Note: This procedure is dependent upon the individual router and network security for the end user’s system.
The end user’s router may require a different procedure.
The following provides an example for one type of router. Refer to the router manufacturer's documentation for
detailed instructions. If the end user does not have his router documentation you can find the correct
instructions on the internet.
3.1 Setting Up the Router for Port Forwarding
Following is an example of instructions for port forwarding.
Note: The end users specific router may require different instructions.
EXAMPLE:
1. Ensure that the router is connected properly as indicated in the router’s instructions.
2. Access your router’s configuration page:
Step 1. Refer to your router’s manual for the exact procedure. In most cases, this is done by entering
the router’s IP address in the address bar of your web browser. Your router’s IP address may be
indicated in the router’s instructions or on a sticker on the router.
Step 2. If you cannot find the IP address of the router, try the following from your Windows Screen:
Step a. Open a command prompt window. Press the windows button on your keyboard.
In the search programs and files window type in Command.
Step b. Select Command Prompt.
Step c. At the prompt Type ipconfig
Step d. Press Enter.
The router IP address will be the Default Gateway . . . . .:xx.xx.xx.xxx

HD77 Installation Guide 17
Figure 15 – Command Prompt ipconfig
Step e. Enter this IP address into the address bar at the top of the browser page. Press
Enter.
Step f. Put in the user name and password. If you do not know the user name and pass-
word, go to the site www.routerpasswords.com and select your router manufac-
turer and model. The default user name and password should be listed.
Step 3. For this instruction sheet, we will use 10.0.0.138 as an example, since it is the router IP address
seen in Figure 15.

18 HD77 Installation Guide
3. In the router’s configuration page, check the DHCP settings:
Step 1. If DHCP is enabled, verify that the IP address range is large enough to accommodate all of your
cameras. Four cameras will require 4 IP addresses.
Figure 16 – DHCP Enable
Step 2. Record one address at the upper end of the DHCP range for each HD77 in your system. You will
need two ports for each IP address one port for (port 80) for HTTP and one port for (port 443)
for HTTPS.
Step 3. DHCP Settings (screenshot may differ depending on type of router used).
Figure 17 – Port Forwarding
Figure 18 – Fill in the Port Forwarding Information

HD77 Installation Guide 19
4. In the router’s configuration page, go to the Port Forwarding section (also known as “port mapping”, "NAT",
(network address translation), or “port redirection”).
5. Select an available port on the router and assign it to the HD77 camera. Select a port above #10000 for the
external port. This will be internal port 80 on the camera side. For example, set the router port number to
10166 (assuming that it is available) to HD77 port 80. The HD77 IP address according to the IP Exploring
tool is 10.0.0.166:10166.
6. Repeat the procedure using the same IP address, select the next consecutive port and assign it to port 443
for HTTPS.

20 HD77 Installation Guide
Note: As a suggested standard try to assign the port so that it has 10 + the last section of the IP address.
In step 5 above notice that The IP address is 10.0.0.166 and the port # is 10166. The port number is
chosen arbitrarily by the installer. Choosing the port number to match the IP address will make
configuration easier.
Example of IP addresses and ports for 4 cameras.
Note: Each camera needs a separate IP address and matching external port.
