Before you begin
•Please unpack the box carefully and identify that all the parts are present.
•Do not cut the camera cables, this will void the warranty.
•Makesure you use only the recommended power supply.Damage caused to the camera by
incorrect voltage or wiring is not covered by the warranty.
The camera is suitable for indoor or outdoor use. Please bear in mind the following points when
choosing a mounting position.
•The camera must be positioned so that it will not point directly into the sun (sunrise and
sunset) or any bright light, as this may cause damage to the camera.
•Avoid viewing areas where half the area is in bright sunlight and the other half is dark,
such as in the shadow of a building. All types of cameras have difficulty in ‘seeing’ with
such a large lux level variation.

Sony 1/3" CCD Image Sensor for 580 TVL resolution images
Samsung DSP Chip & Xvision X3 DSP Software
2.8 to 11.0mm Auto Iris Varifocal lens for 26° to 92° viewing angle
for super sharp images and easy selection of the optimum viewing
angle during installation.
Dynamic Night View technology provides clear images without the
need for IR LEDs down to 0.002 lux, this is achieved by using Field
Integration, please note due to way in which field integration works,
whilst it is in operation the frame per second will reduce. The darker
the scene the lower the frame per second.
Smart DNR (Digital Noise Reduction) reduces the noise on the image
when viewing in low lux environments (like at night), this reduces
the size of the image when being recorded by a DVR, resulting in a
saving of disk space.
