NOTE: It is not recommended to record with the microSD card for 24/7

continuously, as it may not be able to support long term continuous data

read/write. Please contact the manufacturer of the microSD card for

information regarding the reliability and life expectancy.

2. Camera Cabling

Before users connect cables, make sure that all cables and the power adaptor

are placed in dry and well-waterproofed environments, e.g. waterproof boxes.

The purpose is to prevent moisture accumulation inside the camera and moisture

penetration into cables, which might lead to device breakdown. Please refer to

the following sections for camera connection.

2.1 Connect Power

For power connection, please refer to section Connectors. Alternatively, users

can power the camera by PoE if a Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) switch is

available. Please refer to the section below for Ethernet cable connection.

NOTE: If PoE is used, make sure PSE is in use in the network.

2.2 Connect Ethernet Cable

To have best transmission quality, cable length shall not exceed 100 meters.

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 IP camera directly to PC.

Check the status of both power and network activity indicator LEDs. If either LED

is unlit, please check the corresponding connection.

Green Power LED lights up when the camera is powered up.

Orange Network LED (1) flashes when data is being transmitted

over network, (2) lights up for good network connection.

2.3 Connect Alarm I/O

The camera supports one alarm input and one relay output for alarm application.

Refer to section Connectors for pin definitions.

NOTE: Do NOT connect external power supply to the alarm I/O

connector of the IP camera.

2.4 Camera Installation

The following description demonstrates how to directly install the camera to the

ceiling or to the wall.

NOTE: This camera must be installed by qualified personnel and the

installation should conform to all local codes.

Step 1:

Loosen the two security screws on the camera

with the supplied security torx and open the

dome cover.

Step 2:

Open the back conduit entry block using a coin

and place it to the side conduit entry.

Step 3:

Place the camera at the installation location.

Mark the position of the two screw holes and

the back conduit entry (for cable entry use)

indicated in the right figure on the ceiling/wall.

Step 4:

On the ceiling/wall, drill the cable entry hole

(back conduit entry).

Step 5:

Drill a hole slightly smaller than the supplied plastic screw anchor on each

marked screw hole. Then insert the plastic screw anchors into the drilled holes.

Step 6:

Thread the cables through the cable entry hole. Match the two screw holes on

the camera with the plastic screw anchors at the installation location. Fasten the

camera with the supplied self-tapping screws.

Step 7:

Attach the dome cover to the camera and fasten the two security screws.
