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.

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.

3Device Installation
3.1 Installation Steps
Important:
Before the installation, please make sure the installation environments can support at least 3x
weight of the camera.
Please follow the steps listed below to install the device. Please refer to Figure 3-1 for reference.
Step 1: Turn clockwise to remove the decoration ring from the snap joints.
Step 2: Please take out the installation position map from the accessories bag, and then paste it on the
ceiling or the wall according to your monitor area requirements. Draw and then dig three plastic expansion
bolts holes in the installation surface and then insert three expansion bolts in the holes. Secure these three
bolts firmly. Please draw the cable out from the cable exit when you install the device.
Step 3: Adjust the device installation pedestal to the proper position and then line up the three screw holes
in the device pedestal to the three plastic expansion bolt holes in the installation position. Put the three self-
tapping screws in the three plastic expansion bolts firmly. Loosen the M3X8 cross recessed pan head slot
screw of the pedestal to unfasten the preforming. (Do not remove, loosen a little bit will be OK.). Adjust the
lens to the proper monitor angle and then use the original preforming to turn the M3X8 cross recessed pan
head slot screw back.
Step4:
Line up the three spigots of the decoration ring to the jags from the bottom to the top and then turn
clockwise until you hear a clear sound ”KA”. Now the installation is complete.

Please pay attention to the dome camera direction when you are installing. Please refer to the following
figure for detailed information. See Figure 3-2.
Figure 3-2
Note
This series product supports two cable exits. One is from the bottom and the other is from the side. Please
refer to the following figure for cable exit from the side information.
Figure 3-3
Please earth the GND port of the device to enhance the device reliability. The GND port is near the cable
exit port on the rear of the dome. The GND screw uses the M2X5 pan screw.

3.2 Restore Factory Default Setup Introduction
Important:
Please use RESET button when device is running.
Step1: Please refer to Step 1 and Step2 in Chapter 3.1 to loosen the dome body. Push a little bit; you can
take the dome body from the dome cover.
Step2: Take the dome body out and then turn the top cover hard to remove.
Step3: Slightly press the RESET button to complete the reset function (see Figure 3-5).
Step4: Turn the top cover back to the original position. Please make sure it reaches the original position,
otherwise it may result in water leaking into the housing!
Step5: Put the dome back to the dome cover. Please refer to Step 4 in Chapter 3.1 to install the decoration
ring back.
