3 Connections
The camera has a 2.1mmsocket whichrequires 12V DC, use a regulated power supply rated
above the current draw ofthe camera.
The camera is polarity sensitive so connections must be correctly made.
The camera has a standard BNC connector for the 4-in-1 video output, the output canbe
changed to AHD, CVI or CVBS ifrequired.
4 4-In-1 Technology
Selectable HD-TVI, HD-CVI, AHD and CVBS (Analogue) Output. As default the camera is

lighting so that pulsing effect is minimised.
White Balance - Colour adjustment ofthe camera to be set up so objects appear a natural
colour. ATW / PRO (Automatic tracking white balance) continually tracks and adjusts the white
balance, making it suitable for use in cameras in which the image content and lighting are subject

7 Troubleshooting
7.1 Camera Rebooting / Turning Off
A. Check the voltage to the camera (under load) using a digitalmulti-meter, ifbelow 10.8V then
move the power supply closer to the camera.
B. For 12V DC cameras, only use regulated power supply rated above the current consumption,
so that the camera is always receiving the correct supply which is rated above the current
consumption.
C. Use thicker gauge copper cabling to reduce the voltage drop to the camera, using thicker
cable willreduce the resistance between the camera and the power supply and therefore reduce
the voltage dropped along the cable.
7.2 Poor Quality Images
A. Check the video format the DVR (digitalvideo recorder), then set the camera to the relevant
video format – see the 4-In-1 Technology
B. Ifset to CVBS, then this is a low qualityvideo output for legacy systems (analogue - CVBS),
when using a 2 MegaPixelDVR or above then use another video format, like HD-TVI.
C. Reset the camera menu via Zip Coaxitron – OSD Menu
D. Check ifthe DVR (digitalvideo recorder) supports the resolutionofthe camera.
7.3 Image is Black & White
A. Check the video format your DVR supports, then set the camera to the relevant video format
– see the 4-In-1 Technology
B. Reset the camera menu via Zip CoaxitronOSD Menu
D. Check ifthe DVR (digitalvideo recorder) supports the resolutionofthe camera.
7.4 NCD / No Image Displayed on Recorder
A. Check the voltage to the camera (under load) using a digitalmulti-meter, ifbelow 10.8V then
move the power supply closer to the camera.
B. For 12V DC cameras, only use regulated power supply rated above the current consumption,
so that the camera is always receiving the correct supply which is rated above the current
consumption.
C. Use thicker gauge copper cabling to reduce the voltage drop to the camera, using thicker
cable willreduce the resistance between the camera and the power supply and therefore reduce
the voltage dropped along the cable.
