Connecting V9360 Hemispheric
Cameras to ViconNet
This guide provides a quick installation guide and a step-by-step procedure
to set up V9360 IP Hemispheric Cameras for use with the ViconNet® Video
Management System. It assumes an understanding of ViconNet and the
camera. Refer to the ViconNet and camera manuals for detailed information.
The camera has an IP Utility (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 ViconNet system.
Go to Vicon’s website, www.vicon-security, to find full installation and user
manuals and the IP Utility tool.

Installation and Connections
The camera package includes all the hardware necessary for installation,
including terminal blocks. A template is also included for installation.
Additionally, a PC and monitor, a Network Switch and an RJ-45 network
cable (1 for each device) are required.
PoE switches that are IEEE802.3af compliant can power the camera directly.
For devices connected to a non-PoE switch, a power adapter is required with
the terminal block. Connect the white striped wire to the 12 V pin and the
black wire to the GND (ground) pin.

Camera Discovery
The camera is accessed through a standard web browser; Windows®
Internet Explorer® 8.0 and above. 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 IP Utility
(Discovery) tool. By default the camera is set to obtain the IP address
automatically via DHCP; if your network does not have DHCP, the default IP
address is 192.168.0.100.
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 IP Utility (found on our website, www.vicon-security.com/
on this camera’s page; it will search cameras on the network
automatically.
2. Select the camera (underlined IP link) 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 an IP address.
3. The Configuration Tool Bar (A) offers a choice of functions that can
be controlled for the selected camera. The Global setting Parameter
(B) allows the configuration of multiple cameras at one time. The
Device List (C) provides information on all connected devices. The
Manual Input Bar (D) allows entering an IP address that is not
showing up in the Device List.

4. Connect to the desired camera by clicking on the IP address.
5. After connecting to the camera, the Login page will display.
6. The default User Name is Admin; the default Password in 123456.
7. Note
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.
8. After logging in, the Live View will display. To go to the main menu,
click Setup in the top left corner of the screen.

If you have access to a web browser and know the camera IP address, you
can go directly to the Network screen from the camera browser interface to
configure the network.
Select Static IP Address. Enter the desired IP address (avoid the default IP
192.168.0.100). Click Apply and then click System >Save & Reboot.
Adding Cameras to the Nucleus

the ViconNet site list.
V9360 cameras do not require a license, but do not automatically show up on
the site list and must be added to the ViconNet system. Refer to the camera
manual for details on installation and setup of the camera.
Note:
V9360 cameras do not need to be registered and only need to be added
once in the Nucleus for the entire system.

Cameras that are not on the LAN have to be added manually. Refer to the
instruction manual for the camera to add cameras manually.
1. Enter a Camera Name for this camera and select IP or DNS.
2. The format is set from the camera’s Video Settings screen. Select the
same format, H.264, MPEG-4 or M-JPEG.
3. The Port Number will default to 80; this can be changed as required.

that the user be administrator level to be able to access all camera
features. Default User and Password are “Admin” and “123456”.
5. Click Save to save the settings. An Undo button is provided.
6. Click on the camera to be set up from the camera list. Click the
button.
7. Click the button for a
direct link to the browser for that camera, if needed. Click Save and
Close.
8. To make sure you can use Quick Playback, select the Quick
Playback Storage Source. From the dropdown list, select from the

9. Click on the button.
This opens a screen that allows setting up authorization for Live
View, Playback and PTZ actions by selecting ( ) or deselecting
() the appropriate categories, as required. If all cameras are to
have the same authorizations, check Apply to all cameras box to
avoid setting up each camera individually.
When this procedure is complete, the camera will appear on the ViconNet
site list and there will be access to the video.
