illuminators system specifically designed for use in custodial suites and prison cells. It is available in

an IP version that is fully compatible with all ViconNet® systems; its ONVIF certification provides an

open-platform for integration into other video management systems.

sealed to the wall so that the housing is ligature proof. The housing consists of a two part stainless

steel assembly, a fixed base plate and a removable front plate, that allows ease of installation and

servicing. The front plate is secured with security screws and has two polycarbonate windows to

protect the camera and IR illuminators. The alarm input and alarm output can be used to connect

various third party devices, such as door sensors and alarm bells.

2.3 Network Connection and IP assignment

The network camera is designed for use on an Ethernet network and requires an IP address for access.

Most networks today have a DHCP server that automatically assigns IP addresses to connected

devices. By factory default, your camera is set to obtain the IP address automatically via DHCP server.

If your network does not have a DHCP server the network camera will use 192.168.1.100 as the

default IP address.

If DHCP is enabled and the product cannot be accessed, run the “Smart Manager” utility on the CD to

search and allocate an IP address to your product or reset the product to the factory default settings

and then perform the installation again.

1. Connect the network camera/device to the network and power up.

2. Start SmartManager utility (Start>All programs>SmartManager>SmartManager); the main

window will display. After a short while any network devices connected to the network will be

displayed in the list.

3. Select the camera on the list and click right button of the mouse. The pop-up menu displays as

below.

4.Select Assign IP. The Assign IP window displays. Enter the required IP address.

automatically configure the router to allow access to the network camera. This is enabled from Setup

> System > Network > NAT.
