1.3 Functions
XVI Specification
XVI（High Definition Composite Video Interface）is an over-coaxial –cable HD video transmission
standard. The technology renders two HD video formats by progressive scanning.
OSD
User-friendly on-screen display for you to select the different functions.
ICR
The IR cut removal is to filter the IR light in the daytime and then auto switch to the general fitter at night.
This function allows the camera to output the high sensitivity and clear video.
Smart IR technology
The sensor controls the IR light on/off via the combination work of the hardware and software, which
realizes the automatically IR light compensation according to the environment illumination.

Step 3 Adjust Monitor Angle
Turn the pan base to the pedestal and secure firmly. Adjust rotate base and the dome body to get the lens
to the proper monitor angle. See Figure 3-3.
Figure 3-3
Step 4 Fix Monitor Angle
To prevent the dome from moving, use wrench to secure the three set screws to secure the monitor angle
position.
3.2 BIR Series

Step 2
First prepare the cable according to the cable. Line up the three screw holes at the bottom of the bracket
to the three installation holes in the wall or the ceiling, and then insert three screws to the three holes of
the chassis of the bracket and fix them firmly. Now secure the bracket on the installation surface of the
wall or the ceiling.
Step 3
Adjust the camera to the proper monitor area via the three directions indicated in Figure 3-5 after you fixed
the camera.
Figure 3-5
Step 4
Connect the device video output port to the terminal devices such as the DVR, NVS and etc. Then connect
the power cable to the device.
Now you have completed the device installation and cable connection.
You can use the terminal encode devices to view the monitor video.

attractive if the value is too low. The recommended value
ranges from 40 to 60.
Sharpness
The value here is to adjust the edge of the video. The value
ranges from 0 to 100. The larger the value is, the clear the edge
is and vice versa. Please note there is noise if the value here is
too high. The default value is 50 and the recommended value
ranges from 40 to 60.
3DNR
It is to reduce video noise. The larger the number is, the lower
the noise is. The details of the video may disappear if the value
here is too large.

Outdoor: In this mode, you can switch exposure mode to
get the effect under the corresponding exposure mode.
50Hz: When the current is 50Hz, system can auto adjust
the exposure according to the environment brightness in
case there is any strip.
60Hz: When the current is 60Hz, system can auto adjust
the exposure according to the environment brightness in
case there is any strip.
