Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the TV-IP612P/TV-IP612WN Pan/Tilt/Zoom (Wireless) Internet
Camera, a standalone system that can be connected directly to an Ethernet or Fast Ethernet
connection. The TV-IP612WN also supports wireless transmissions based on the IEEE
802.11b/g/n standard. Compared to a conventional PC camera, the Pan/Tilt/Zoom Internet
(Wireless) Camera features a built-in CPU and web-based solution that can provide a cost-
effective way of transmitting real-time high-quality video images for monitoring. The Camera
can be managed remotely, allowing you to use a Web browser to access the Camera from any
notebook/desktop computer over an intranet or the Internet. The simple installation procedures
and Web-based interface allows you to easily integrate the Camera into your network. With
comprehensive application support, the Internet Camera is an ideal solution for remotely
monitored, high quality and high performance video images.
Features and Benefits
Easy to use - The Camera is a standalone system with built-in CPU, no special hardware or
software is required. The camera supports DirectX 9.0; therefore, the only requirement you
need is the web browser software such as Internet Explorer 7.0 or above. Once you have a
valid IP Address, just connect it and you can view video footage from your Camera. In addition,
the Camera’s pan/tilt/zoom function allows you to adjust the Camera for optimal viewing angles
and zoom strength. You can pan the Camera to the left or right (-165° ~ +165°) and tilt the
Camera up or down (-84° ~ +31°) using the Web Configuration Utility. Further, you can also
zoom up to a maximum of 10x optical zoom.
Motion detection and event triggered digital image or video recording – Use the Motion
Detection to take a snapshot or digital video record of objects that move through a selected
area of the video display.
Supports variety of platforms - The camera supports TCP/IP networking, SMTP e-mail,
HTTP and other Internet related protocols. It can be utilized in a mixed operating system
environment, including Windows XP/Vista/7. Moreover, it can be integrated easily into other
www/ Intranet applications.
Video Encoding The TV-IP612P/TV-IP612WN provides you with selectable video encoding
formats that are able to efficiently utlize bandwidth. Using selectable video compression such
as MJPEG, MPEG-4 and H.264 codecs, a reduction in bandwidth and storage space can be
achieved. By using, for example, the H.264 codec over MJPEG of 80 percent is achievable.
Web configuration - Applying a standard web browser, the administrator can configure and
manage the camera directly from its own web page via the Intranet or Internet. Up to 64 user
accounts are permitted with privilege settings controlled by the administrator.
Remote Utility - The powerful IPView Pro 2.0 application assigns the administrator with a pre-
defined user ID and password, allowing the administrator to modify the camera settings from
the remote site via Intranet or Internet. When new firmware is available, you can also upgrade
remotely over the network for added convenience. Users are also allowed to monitor the
image, and take snapshots.
Broad Range of Applications - With today’s high-speed Internet services, the Camera can
provide the ideal solution for live video images over the Intranet and Internet for remote
monitoring. The Camera allows remote access from a Web-browser for live image viewing and

allows the Administrator to manage and control the Camera from anywhere in the World at
anytime. The Camera can be used to monitor many different objects and places, including
homes, offices, banks, hospitals, child-care centers, amusement parks and all kinds of
industrial and public monitoring tasks. The Camera can also be used to detect intruders,
capture still images for archiving and many other applications.
Remote Survelliance The TV-IP612P/TV-IP612WN is 3GPP compatible or in other words it
supports mobile survelliance where a live feed from the camera can be viewed on a compatible
3G cellular network connected phone or other smart cellular network device. The device must
be capable of supporting Real Time Streaming Protocol (RTSP) to enable you to monitor your
video feed from any remote location supporting 3G protocols.
Local A/V Output The TV-IP612P/TV-IP612WN is equiiped with a A/V output which allows you
to connect it directly to a TV or VCR to view or record the camera’s video. The Audio from the
A/V output jack can be connected directly to a local speaker inorder to provide audio to anyone
within hearing range of the camera. This way a camera administrator can speak directly to
anyone nearby the camera.
Input/Output Pins The camera supports industry standard input from the connection of
various external devices including alarm relays, switches, and IR motion sensors. This can then
further be associated with industry standard output to alarm devices that can be programmed
based on the input triggers.
Multiple Protocol Support The camera further supports multiple protocol platforms suchs as:
FTP, SMTP, NTP, HTTP, UPnP and DDNS.
