Cautions
2. CAUTIONS
Handle the camera carefully.
Do not abuse the camera. Avoid striking, shaking, etc. as the camera can be damaged by
improper handling or storage.
Install electrical wiring carefully.
Ask a qualified electrician to perform the wiring for the installation. Please note that input
electricity to the unit is at a tolerance of 24VAC 50/60 Hz ± 10%.

Figure 2.1 Cable harness Figure 2.2 Power input: 3-pin terminal block
Do not disassemble the camera.
To prevent electric shock, do not remove screws or covers. There are no user serviceable
parts inside. Please consult technical support if a camera is suspected of malfunctioning.
Do not block the cooling vent on the indoor camera.
This camera has a cooling fan inside. Blocking the cooling holes may lead to overheating
and cause malfunction. Overheating is not covered by warranty.
Do not operate the camera beyond the specified temperature and power source
ratings.
Use the indoor dome camera under conditions where temperature is between
0°C ~ 40°C (32°F ~ 104°F).
Do not expose the camera to moisture or try to operate it in wet areas.
Turn off the power immediately if the camera gets wet and ask a qualified technician to
inspect and service it. Moisture can damage the camera and also create the danger of
electric shock.
Do not use strong or abrasive detergents when cleaning the camera.

Fast and smooth object-tracking capability.
The most impressive, economical indoor application.
3.1. General Operation Requirements
A minimum of one control device is required for operation, such as a control keyboard, a DVR
or a PC. The Siqura MD20 camera contains a built-in receiver that decodes commands
originating from a control device communicating via Ethernet.
The built-in Pelco-D protocol provides connectivity to other surveillance systems and allows
the Siqura MD20 to be integrated with other suppliers' surveillance systems.

5. DOME SETUP AND CABLE CONNECTION
Before installing or connecting the dome camera, please refer to this section and complete
preparation, switch setting and communication switch settings.
5.1. Preparations for Indoor Dome Camera Setup
This installation procedure is for the Siqura MD20 indoor dome camera. Follow the steps
below to complete dome housing installation.
To prepare the camera
1. Unpack the dome package and take out the dome body.
2. Unscrew the three screws on the dome back and remove the dome housing with the
dome cover.
3. Remove the PE cloth sheet and remove the lens cap.
4. Replace the dome housing with the cover back. Then screw it and the dome back
together.
please note When replacing the dome housing, align the
cooling fan with the vent on the dome
housing, as shown in figure 5.1.
5. Set the Line Lock switch if required. Other switches only need to be checked if there is
a problem.

Dome Setup and Cable Connection
5.1.1. Switch definition
It is necessary that the dome ID and communication protocol remain in the default modes
when connecting the dome camera to other devices. The switches used for configuring these
settings are located on the bottom of the dome camera. These settings are preset to operate
the camera with the IP hardware. Changing the settings may make the camera inoperative
using the IP connection.
Please refer to figure 5.2 and table 5.1 for switch locations and definitions.
Switch Definition
A Restore server factory defaults.
B Communication switch.
C Reserved. Must be set to 001.
D Reserved. Must be set to 29.
E RJ-45 connector.
F 22-pin connector.
G Reserved.
Figure 5.2 Switches – MD20 (Indoor Dome) Table 5.1 Switch definitions
please note Switch A has two buttons. Only the button closest to the 22-pin connector is
used to restore factory server defaults. The other button is reserved.
To restore factory defaults
•Power up the camera while holding button A. Continue to hold the button for 30
seconds after powering the camera.

Dome Setup and Cable Connection
5.2. Establishing a Network Connection
The factory-set IP address of the Siqura MD20 camera is in the 10.x.x.x range. You will find
it printed on a sticker on the bottom of the camera.
please note This is the address the module will revert to if you issue a ‘Reset to factory
settings; incl. network settings’ command and reboot the module.
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 (see below for details).
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 be used in and
reboot the module.
To address the module from the same PC again, configure the PC’s network adapter once
more to assign the PC to the same subnet as the module.
Step 1: Setting the host PC to the factory default subnet of the camera
To configure the network adapter on the host PC
1. In the Control Panel, open Network Connections (see figure 5.5).
2. Right-click the connection to be configured, and select Properties.
3. In the items list, select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP).

13
Dome Setup and Cable Connection
4. Click Properties.
5. In the Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties dialog, click Use the following IP address.
6. Enter an IP address that will assign your PC to the same subnet as the camera (i.e.,
within the 10.x.x.x range). Use 255.0.0.0 as a subnet mask.
Figure 5.5 Opening IP settings on the host PC

14
Dome Setup and Cable Connection
important To prevent conflicts, be sure to choose a unique IP address. No two devices
on a network can have the same IP address.
7. To apply the new settings, click OK, and then click Close.
At this point, connect your PC to the camera. You can connect them directly using a
crossover cable, or connect both to a switch.
Step 2: Accessing the module
Using a standard web browser you can now log on to the camera’s internal web server.
Step 3: Changing the module’s network settings
The Network page enables you to make the camera’s network addressing compatible with
the network it will be hooked into. Do not forget to save and reboot the camera after
changing the settings.
5.3. Dome Cable Definition and Requirements
For operation, the Siqura MD20 camera requires an Ethernet cable to carry the signals to a
remote viewing site and a cable to power the dome.
Figure 5.6 Changing the IP settings on the host PC to
the factory-default network settings of the module.

Dome Setup and Cable Connection
5.3.1. Cable requirements
For operation, the camera requires video and cable harness as described below:
•A cable to provide 24VAC power supply to the dome.
•A CAT-5 Ethernet cable.
•Optional audio cables.
•Optional coaxial cable to monitor analog video.
please note Ensure the power supply corresponds with the dome’s power requirement,
or damage will occur. If any mistake happens, contact a qualified technician.
5.3.2. Verifying Ethernet connectivity
Refer to figure 5.7 to determine whether you have established an Ethernet connection:
Ethernet socket LEDs green/ yellow
Green on/off: 100/10 Mbit
Yellow on/blink: link OK, active
Yellow off/flash: link down, TX attempt
Figure 5.7 Ethernet socket LEDs
5.3.3. 22-pin cable harness
A 30cm cable harness, shown in figure 5.8, is shipped with the camera for quick installation
for demo or testing usage. This section also provides definitions of each pin within the 22-pin
connector on the cable harness.
Power input:3-pin terminal block
