Step 6: Establishing a Network Connection
To open communication with the camera from a host PC and
change the module’s network settings, perform the following
steps:
Step 1: Set the PC’s network adapter to the module’s factory default
subnet and connect the two devices. The factory-set IP
address is in the 10.x.x.x range. You will find it printed on a
sticker on the cylindrical heat sink.
Step 2: Access the module from a web browser or other tool installed
on the PC.
Step 3: Set the module address and subnet mask to the subnet it will
use and reboot the module. Configure the PC’s network
adapter once more to assign the PC to the same subnet as the
module.

Step 5b: Installing with a Gooseneck Tube
Installing the HSD62x with a gooseneck
tube requires the following items:
Dome camera with supplied
waterproof boot
Gooseneck tube
Screws and screw anchors
Drill
Screwdrivers
To ensure an IP66 quality installation,
ensure that the waterproof gasket and
cable gland provided with the wall
mounts are correctly positioned and
securely fastened.
To mount the HSD62x with the gooseneck tube
1. Make a hole in the wall to lead the cables through, if
necessary, and secure the supplied cable gland in the wall.
Otherwise, the cables can be threaded through the cable
entry hole in the gooseneck tube (figure 10).
2. Fasten the gooseneck tube to the wall.
3. Attach the waterproof boot to the gooseneck tube.
4. Ensure that the weather resistant gasket is correctly
attached to the mount.
5. Thread the cable through the gooseneck tube and the
outdoor tube adapter.
6. To keep insects out, block the cable entry hole with the
supplied sponge.
7. Screw the outdoor tube adaptor to the gooseneck tube with
the supplied screws and washers (figure 13).
8. Adjust the waterproof boot to cover the junction of the
gooseneck tube and the outdoor tube adaptor.
9. Connect the cables to the dome camera and fasten the
dome camera to the outdoor tube adaptor with the supplied
screws.
