Important Safeguards and Warnings
1．Electrical safety
All installation and operation here should conform to your local electrical safety codes.
The power supply shall conform to the requirement in the SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage) and
must make sure that the limited power source is rated 12V DC or 24V AC.
Please note: Do not connect two power supplying sources to the device at the same time; it
may result in device damage!
We assume no liability or responsibility for all the fires or electrical shock caused by improper
handling or installation.
We are not liable for any problems caused by unauthorized modification or attempted repair.
2．Transportation Security
Please ensure that the product does not endure heavy stresses, violent vibration or contact with
water during transportation, storage and installation.

to vendor.
3．Installation
Do not apply power to the product before completing installation.
Do not put object(s) on the product.
Please install a proper power cut-off device during the installation connection.
4．Qualified engineers needed
All the examination and repair work should be done by the qualified service engineers. We are not
liable for any problems caused by unauthorised modifications or attempted repair.
5. Environment
This product should be installed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, inflammable,
explosive substances and etc.
Please keep it away from environments that contain electromagnetic radiation or objects that
produce it.
Please keep sound ventilation around the device at all times.
Do not allow the water and other liquid to penetrate into the device if casing has been
compromised. This series product complies with the IP66 standard specified in the Degrees of
Protection Provided by Enclosure.
Ensure lightning surge protection is in place to make sure you fully protect camera circuitry from
electrical overload.

iv
Please make sure the CCD (CMOS) component is away from the radiation of the laser beam
device. Otherwise it may result in CCD (CMOS) optical component damage.
It is recommended that the grounding studs of the product should be grounded, so to further
enhance the reliability of the camera.
6. Daily Maintenance
Please shut down the device and then unplug the power cable before you begin any maintenance
work.
Do not touch the CCD (CMOS) optic component. Please use an air jet to clean the dust off the lens
surface. You can use the dry cloth with some alcohol or mild detergent to clear if necessary.
When the camera is not in use please put the dustproof cap to protect the CCD (CMOS)
component.
Do not use volatile solvent such as the benzene, paint thinner or detergent with the ability to
abrade surfaces. It may result in lens damage or adversely affect the device’s performance.
7. Accessories
Always use all the accessories recommended by manufacturer.
Before installation, please open the package and check that all the components are included. Contact
your local retailer/vendor ASAP if something is missing.

1General Introduction
1.1 Overview
This network camera integrates traditional camera and network video technology. It adopts both audio and
video data collection and transmission simultaneously. Because of inbuilt internal hardware it can connect
to a network directly without any auxiliary device. When you want to access the camera, you can use a web
browser running off the network at the client-end. Due to its multiple functions it allows for various use in
many environments such office, bank, road & traffic monitoring, etc.
This series network camera product uses the latest industry standard H.264 video and G.711a audio
compression technology, which guarantee the best audio and video quality whilst reducing file sizes.
One of the other main features this camera includes is the IR night vision, which aids in video surveillance
when the camera is functioning within a low illumination environment. The LED IRs highlight objects of
interest within the camera’s field of view and is then able to filter out any visual interference so that you can
easily view footage upon a monitor. It supports real-time monitor and listening at the same time via the
inbuilt microphone. If you want to communicate with a person(s) in view of the camera it also supports dual-
way bidirectional talk.
The built-in protection enclosure and waterproof design conforms to the IP 66 level. It has the sound
waterproof function suitable for use in the outdoor environments.
