2. Connection and Installation
2.1 Indoor Bench Test
Please test the camera properly on the bench for 24/7 before install it
outside. The pre-installing test is so critical to ensure all equipments will
work as expected. This will test network and power tranmission, monitor
day and night video quality, and avoid any potential issues that might
develop when the camera is finally mounted.
Type A: With DC12V Adapter
Adapter
Computer
IP Camera
Router

- 02 -
Do NOT extend the power cable during the bench test because DC power
drops quickly along the transmission. A bench test helps you rule out all
problems caused by power supply. Underpower causes problems such as
1. Ghost image
2. Unstable infrared (camera reboots repeatedly) and
3. Random spinning dome.
Type B: With PoE+ Injector/Switch
Test the camera on your desk before mounting outside.
IP Camera
Router
Computer
PoE+ Injector
When powered up, the speed dome automatically begins a self-diagnostic
process during which the camera will pan horizontally and vertically to
make sure PTZ, lens and other parts of the camera are functional. Please
contact our technical staff if a self-test does not happen on your unit. Please
refrain from disassembling the unit before contacting us. Thanks for
your cooperation.

2.3 Install the TF Card
Illuminati camera comes with a built-in micro SD card slot that can store
videos and snapshots.

Remove the 4 screws to take
off the camera back cover.
Insert the TF card as directed
by the arrow.

2.2 PoE+ Requirement
PoE+IEEE 802.3at standard is required. Note traditional PoE system( 802.
3af standard) delivers up to 15.4W, which is unable to fully support the
camera. Dome cameras, especially with 20x zoom-in capacity, have
higher power requirements than fixed cameras.
Transmission distance
PoE will also drop power along the Ethernet cable. With PoE+ adapter supplying
30W, please don’t run Ethernet over 200ft. The maximum travel distance depends
on the quality of the cable and the maximum power supplied by switch/injector.
NVR’s built-in PoE switch
Some NVRs have built-in PoE switches. It is important to check whether each port
can supply at least 25W (with 802.3at) as some of those are for bullet cameras and
can’t supply enough power for PTZ (with 802.3af only).
Biggest issue when underpower
In the daytime, even 802.3af (conventional PoE system) can provide enough power
to the camera. However, in the night time, if you are underpower, the following
problem begins: low light environment detected -> infrared on -> not enough power
-> reboot -> low light environment detected -> infrared on -> not enough power ->
reboot …… (cycling)

The screws and anchors to attach the camera to the installation
environment are not included and please set the appropriate screws
subject to the specific environment such as concrete, wood, dry wall and
bricks.

3. Camera Management
3.1 Camera Management by Web
The following browsers are supported:
Internet Explorer 11 (Windows)
Chrome (Windows)
Firefox (Windows 7)
The first step of accessing the camera via a web browser is to obtain its IP,
which is the url of the camera. The IP scanning tool called SADP is required
to be installed first.
The SADP tool (Mac & Windows) can be retrieved from the CD-ROM or from
Sunba website (under download section: https://sunbatech.com/download/ )
Below is a screenshot of the tool and the “IPv4 Address” column stands for
the IP of the camera.

- 06 -
Next, please open a compatible web browser, and input the IP of the camera
in the address line. For example, for the above camera, please enter
http://192.168.1.12 in the address line. In the future, if the default HTTP port
(80) of the camera has been changed, the url to login the camera through
web interface will be http://IP:HTTP Port
A web plugin must be installed manually for all browsers. The plugin file can
be obtained from Sunba website or from the CD-ROM came with the camera.
In the login page, please input the default username/password of the camera:

To assign a static IP to the camera, please go to
Configuration-Network-Basic Setting-TCP/IP and unselect DHCP. Then
manually modify the camera IP and click “Save”.
5. PTZ, Preset and Patrol
In rare cases of IP conflicts, the router may manually assign another static
IP to the camera. Therefore, it is also recommended to configure a Mac-IP
reservation through the router.
PTZ Preset Position
Sunba dome cameras can set preset PTZ positions for which cameras can
memorize and travel directly by calling the preset. Preset positions are
represented by numbers. You need to “add” a preset and then “call” it.
You can always “delete” them later.
Find the preset number and hit “ ” to set/add/save a position preset.
Find the preset number and hit “ ” to call a position preset.
Find the preset number and hit “ ” to delete a position preset.

In the web interface, users can double click the preset name on the list to
customize the name for the position preset such as front gate, back yard
or parking lot.
Special Presets
Special presets are preset numbers associated with advanced commands
that cameras can follow to enable settings such as changing infrared LED
night vision mode, setting up auto tracking etc. You can call the preset
directly (no need to “add” a preset as they are pre-existed) according to
The Full Preset List.
Note: You cannot delete any special preset.
Patrol
The PTZ camera can travel from one preset to another by order. A patrol
is usually named as a tour or a cruise. To activate a patrol, first you will
need to save corresponding presets you want to tour across. Click to
access the patrol menu and click icon to add presets to the patrol group.
After that, click the play icon to activate the patrol. Click the stop icon
to stop the patrol.
Tracking Presets
Tracking presets are a mixture of position preset and special preset. More
details can be found in Chapter 7. Auto Tracking.
[Preset Tracking] Preset tracking requires you to set a position preset
(53-59) first, and call it to activate the preset tracking. The camera will
follow any moving object in this pre-defined position.
[Intrusion Tracking] User needs to set a home position (preset 50) for the
intrusion event, and call preset 50 to activate intrusion tracking. The camera
will return back to preset 50 when tracking completes.
[Line Cross Tracking] User needs to set a home position (preset 51) for the
line cross event, and call preset 51 to activate line cross tracking. The
camera will return back to preset 51 when tracking completes

7. Auto Tracking
7.1 An Overview of the Tracking Algorithm
The camera can be set in one of 3 tracking modes: 1) preset tracking, 2)
line cross tracking or 3) intrusion tracking. The tracking will begin once a
motion is detected (with adjustable sensitivity), and will follow the moving
object for a set duration (adjustable) and return back to the pre-configured
position.
Activate tracking in Configuration-PTZ-Smart Tracking. It is recommended
to adjust the following values to optimize tracking performance subject to
different installation environments.
[Enable Object Zoom-in] Check to enable the zoom-in feature of the camera
during auto tracking.
[Duration] Edit to set a tracking duration (in seconds). The speed dome will
stop tracking when the “duration” time is up and go back to the
preconfigured position until the next motion object is detected.
[Sensitivity] Slide the bar to set the sensitivity of motion tracking. You can
set different sensitivity for day & night. Higher sensitivity will enable the
camera to track smaller moving objects.
Smart tracking

- 17 -
7.2 Preset Tracking
Preset tracking is the same as home position tracking. The PTZ camera will
track a moving object at a pre-designated view. For example, if the camera
is installed at the house front, users can program the camera to start
tracking an object while the camera is exactly facing the front gate. In this
case, the front gate view and be added as a preset for tracking.
Steps to enable preset tracking:
1.Click to add a preset. The presets available to serve as a tracking
preset can be selected from 53-59.
2. Click the icon to call the preset set in step 1. The camera would then
follow a moving object for a set duration (set in Chapter 7.1) and return
back to the preset position.
If the user manually performs any pan tilt zoom related action, the preset
tracking will stop. To continue preset tracking, add the tracking preset into
Park Action (Configuration-PTZ-Park Action) so that the camera will
actively call the designated preset as long as the speed dome doesn’t
receive other commands from the user.

- 18 -
[Draw Area] Draw a virtual line
[Clear] Clear any existing lines
[Direction] Select the crossing direction to trigger
the alarm to be one of 1) A to B (A->B), 2) B to A
(B->A) or 3) bi-lateral (A<->B)
3. (Optional) Add additional lines if applicable.
Users can add up to 4 different lines.
7.3 Line Cross Tracking
Line cross tracking is an upgrade to conventional preset tracking to improve
tracking efficiency. Instead of tracking any moving object at the designated
view, it would only start tracking if a virtual line from the view has been
crossed by a moving object. For example, users can draw a line on their
front gate , and the camera will start following any moving object passing
the line (gate).
Steps to enable line cross tracking:
1.Set the desired surveillance view as preset 51
2.Set a line cross algorithm at Configuration->Event->Smart Event->Line
Crossing Detection
