INTRODUCTION

OVERVIEW

The HD80 Night Vision HD Indoor/Outdoor IP camera is capable of providing real time streaming video with smooth image quality. The HD80 offers quad streaming and can be used in a variety of installations including shops, stores, banks, factories and for building surveillance.

With Power over Ethernet (PoE), the need for separate power lines is eliminated and cabling and installation costs can be significantly reduced. The light weight and small size allow for quick and simple installation on either the ceiling or walls of structures or vehicles.

The HD80 is equipped with Digital Wide Dynamic Range, which makes it possible to identify details even in lighting conditions with severe shadows or backlighting, and the IR LEDs make it a perfect camera for dark areas and nighttime surveillance.

Connections

The HD80 cameras use Power over Ethernet (PoE). The only connection on the camera is the RJ45 Ethernet dongle located on the rear of the camera. Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the dongle, and connect the other end to the recorder, or to a PoE switch.

• Protect the network cable connection from water damage by running the cord inside a wall or ceiling, or through conduit.

• If passing the cord through a wall or ceiling, drill a 3/4” hole.

• For outdoor installations, seal any holes in the wall or ceiling with

silicone caulk to protect against water intrusion.

AvertX recommends using Category 5 Ethernet cable to connect the camera to your network. For the best transmission quality, the cable length should not exceed 328 feet (100 meters).

Once you have connected the camera, check the stat us of the networ k connection by looking at the link indicator and activity indicator LEDs. If the LEDs are not lit check your network connection. The green link LED indicates a network connection and the orange activity LED flashes to indicate network activity.

INSTALLING THE CAMERA

The camera can be installed directly onto the wall or ceiling. Be sure that the structure is strong enough to support the camera.

Ceiling and Wall Installation

Dome cameras are ideal for installation on a ceiling or soffit location. If you are installing the camera on a wall without a bracket, see Consideration for Wall Installat ions .

1. Remove the dome cover following the instructions on the sticker on the base of the camera.

2. Use the included mounting template to pre-drill holes for the mounting screws and, if passing the cable through the ceiling or wall, drill a ¾” hole.

3. Connect an Ethernet cable to the dongle on the camera.

• Protect the network cable connection from water damage by

running the cord inside a wall or ceiling, or through conduit

• For outdoor installations, seal any holes in the wall or ceiling

with silicone caulk to protect against water intrusion.

4. Affix the base of the camera to the wall with the included selftapping screws and wall anchors.

5. Adjust the position of your camera.

6. Replace and secure the dome cover.

Consideration for Wall Installations

When installing a dome camera on a wall without a bracket, you are limited in the direction that you can point the camera lens. Dome cameras should point out perpendicular to the wall surface.

If you choose to turn the camera to point parallel to the wall surface the video image will be sideways.

Note If the video image is upside down after installation, you can flip

the image 180º. For instructions to rotate the video, see Video
