1Features and Functions
1.1 General Introduction
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 guarantees the best audio and video quality whilst reducing file sizes. Using the
Sony IMX122 digital imaging chipset the camera can record in full 1080P HD resolution so that you can capture
highly detailed widescreen video images. This will allow you to monitor your premises in finer detail and can
interpret incidents caught on camera much quicker.
The PTZ operational functions allows for smooth full 360 degree rotation and 180 degree tilt movements. The
camera’s interface will allow you full control over the image quality and telemetry settings with up to 255 presets
that can be programmed in. You can also be able to program up to 8 tour patterns so that it can perform a fully
customised and extensive scan of the location it is installed within.
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 a sound waterproof function
suitable for use in the outdoor environments.

corresponding bracket. Please also make sure the ceiling, wall and the bracket can support the speed dome and
its corresponding installation component. The location and fixing should be able to safely hold 4 times the weight
of the camera.
Cable information
Please select the cable according to your transmission distance.
The minimum video coaxial-cable requirement is:
75 ohm.
Full cable with copper conductor
95% knitted copper shield

2.2 Installation
The speed dome has several types of installation brackets. You can refer to the following contents for detailed
information. This section will show you how to install the speed dome on to a wall mounted bracket.
Open the transparent cover and take out the packing material (shown as EPE in the diagram below), which is
around the speed dome driver. Please remove the protective plaster from the driver and take off the camera lens
cap. If you do not do this the motorised camera movements will not work as desired. See Figure 2-1.
Figure 2-1
2.2.1 Address and Baud Rate Setup
Now you can set the quick installation speed dome address and baud rate. The speed dome interface is shown
as below (see Figure 2-2). There are two dial switches: SW1 and SW2. Using these dials you can set the
address, baud rate, communication protocols, etc. Please refer to Chapter 2.4 for detailed information.

2.2.2 Install the transparent cover
1. Firstly you need to check the steel wire of the bracket to see if it is firmly secure or not.
2. Please line up the captive screws to the quadrate groove of the bracket and then push the bracket into
the internal enclosure. Fix these two captive screws in to place. See Figure 2-3.
Figure 2-3
3. Now you can install the quick installation port. Please twist the Teflon tape around the screw thread of
the quick installation port and turn it into the screw thread of the wall mount bracket. Use M4 stainless
screws to secure firmly. See Figure 2-4.
Figure 2-4
4. Now you can begin the cable connection.
5. Connect the steel wire of the quick installation cover to the hook on the quick installation port.
6. Connect the reserved integration cable from the wall mount bracket to the corresponding power cable,
video output cable, RS485 control cable and alarm input/output port (if necessary) of the multiple-

function composite cable coming from the quick installation speed dome. Paste the insulating tape in the
connection position to make sure everything is waterproof. See Figure 2-5.
Figure 2-5
Note: The video port is covered by the high ratio heat shrinked tube. After you have completed the cable
connection, please heat the tube to make sure the video port is damp proof and water proof.
2.2.3 Install the speed dome
1. After you complete the above steps, please pull the integration cable and multiple-function composite
cable through to the wall mount bracket.
2. Line up the straight edge, of the internal enclosure within the quick installation speed dome, to the
straight edge of the quick installation port, and then slowly push the speed dome to the bottom of the
port. Use your hands to turn the three stainless steel screws, on the quick installation port, in to the
groove of the speed dome’s internal enclosure. Turn the screws on the straight edge of the quick
installation port to the Ф6.5 hole of the speed dome’s internal enclosure. Use the inner hex tool to fix
these three screws. Installation should now be complete. See Figure 2-6.

Figure 2-6
IMPORTANT: After the installation, please make sure:
The three stainless steel screws on the quick installation port are firmly secure.
The quick installation speed dome is fixed into place securely.
The speed dome is straight and leaning at an angle causing the bracket to not sit flush to the installation
surface.
The wiring/cabling is firmly secure.
Once you have completed the installation, the interface should look like the image shown in Figure 2-7.

2.3 Initial Setup
The default setup is:
Address: 1
Baud rate: 9600
2.4 Dial Switch Setup
The two dial switches found on the speed dome are labeled as SW1 and SW2. These are to specify the speed
dome parameters, which include the protocols, baud rates, addresses, etc. When the button is set to ON, it is 1.
When using the SW1 and SW2 dials, 1 is the lowest bit and the 8 is the highest bit. See Figure 2-8.
