Connecting
the V9360-1 Hemispheric
Cameras
This guide provides a quick installation guide and a step-by-step procedure
to set up V9360-1 IP Hemispheric Cameras for use with various open-
standard Video Management Systems (VMS), including Vicon’s ViconNet®
Video Management System. When using the Vicon system, it assumes an
understanding of ViconNet and the camera. Refer to the ViconNet and
camera manuals for detailed information.
The camera has a DeviceSearch (Discovery tool) that provides a way for it to
be found on the network. After it has been added to the network, the camera
is then connected to the VMS.
Go to Vicon’s website, www.vicon-security, to find full installation and user
manuals and the DeviceSearch tool.

Power Connection
Please use a DC 12V/AC 24V power adaptor and plug it to the camera and
the power outlet. Alternatively, users can use an Ethernet cable and connect
it to the RJ-45 connector of the camera and a Power Sourcing Equipment
(PSE) switch.
NOTE: If PoE is used, verify your power source.
Ethernet Cable Connection
Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the RJ-45 connector of the camera,
and plug the other end of the cable to the network switch or PC.
NOTE: In some cases, Ethernet crossover cable might be needed when connecting
the camera directly to the PC.
NOTE: Check the status of the link indicator and activity indicator LEDs. If the LEDs
are unlit, check the LAN connection.
Green Link Light indicates good network connection.
Orange Activity Light flashes for network activity indication.
Before Login to the Camera
A client program will be automatically installed to the PC when connecting to
the camera. Before logging in to the camera, ensure downloading the
ActiveX control is allowed by either changing the ActiveX controls and plug-
ins or setting Internet’s security level to default. For further details, refer to
the User’s Manual in the supplied CD.

Camera Discovery
The camera is accessed through a standard web browser, i.e., Windows®
Internet Explorer®. The IP address for your PC must be within the same
subnet as the IP device. You need to match the TCP/IP settings between PC
and IP device before you can access it via Internet Explorer. If the IP address
of the camera is not known, use the camera’s DeviceSearch (Discovery tool).
By default the camera is set to obtain the IP address automatically via DHCP;
if your network does not have DHCP, the camera will default to an APIPA
address in the 169.254.xxx.xxx range.
Note
If your network has a DHCP server and the UPnP function is enabled on your
PC on the same network, you can find the camera in “My Network;” double
click on the device to open its web page (the default browser must be
Internet Explorer). Proceed directly to the Adding Cameras to the Nucleus
section.
1. Execute the DeviceSearch (found on the CD included with the
camera); it will search cameras on the network automatically.
2. Select the camera on the list to access the camera. The PC should
be on the same subnet so it can be used to open the camera page or
use it to assign a valid IP address.
3. Double click or right click and select <Browse> to access the camera
directly via a web browser.
4. After connecting to the camera prompt window will display requesting
the default user name and password.
5. The default User Name is ADMIN; the default Password in 1234.
Note
User name and password are case sensitive.
If your browser has pop-up blocking enabled, you will have to allow
the camera’s IP. You may also be prompted to install the camera’s
Active X in the browser to allow the video.
6. For initial access to the camera, a client program, called DC Viewer,
will be automatically installed to the PC when connecting to the
camera.
7. Once the DC Viewer is successfully installed, the Home page of the
camera will display.
