Important Safeguards and Warnings

1．Electrical safety

All installation and operation here should conform to your local electrical safety codes.
The power shall conform to the requirement in the SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage) and the Limited
power source is rated 12V DC or 24V AC in the IEC60950-1. (Refer to general introduction) Please

note: Do not connect two power supplying sources to the device at the same time; it may result
in device damage! The product must be grounded to reduce the risk of electronic shock.

We assume no liability or responsibility for all the fires or electrical shock caused by improper handling
or installation.
We are not liable for any problems caused by unauthorized modification or attempted repair.

2．Transportation security

Heavy stress, violent vibration or water splash are not allowed during transportation, storage and
installation.

3．Installation

Do not apply power to the camera before completing installation.
Please install the proper power cut-off device during the installation connection.
Always follow the instruction guide the manufacturer recommended.

4．Qualified engineers needed

All the examination and repair work should be done by the qualified service engineers.
We are not liable for any problems caused by unauthorized modifications or attempted repair.

5．Environment

This series network camera should be installed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight,
inflammable, explosive substances and etc.
Please keep it away from the electromagnetic radiation object and environment.
Please make sure the CCD (CMOS) component is out of the radiation of the laser beam device.
Otherwise it may result in CCD (CMOS) optical component damage.
Please keep the sound ventilation.
Do not allow the water and other liquid falling into the camera.
Thunder-proof device is recommended to be adopted to better prevent thunder.
The grounding studs of the product are recommended to be grounded to further enhance the reliability
of the camera.

6. Daily Maintenance

Please shut down the device and then unplug the power cable before you begin daily maintenance
work.

iii

Do not touch the CCD (CMOS) optic component. You can use the blower to clean the dust on the lens
surface.
Always use the dry soft cloth to clean the device. If there is too much dust, please use the water to
dilute the mild detergent first and then use it to clean the device. Finally use the dry cloth to clean the
device.
Please put the dustproof cap to protect the CCD (CMOS) component when you do not use the camera.
Dome enclosure is the optical component, do not touch the enclosure when you are installing the
device or clean the enclosure when you are doing maintenance work. Please use professional optical
clean method to clean the enclosure. Improper enclosure clean method (such as use cloth) may result
in poor IR effect of camera with IR function.

7. Accessories

Be sure to use all the accessories recommended by manufacturer.
Before installation, please open the package and check all the components are included.
Contact your local retailer ASAP if something is broken in your package.

1 General Introduction

1.1 Overview

This series network camera integrates the traditional camera and network video technology. It
adopts audio video data collection, transmission, storage together. It can connect to the network
directly without any auxiliary device.

This series network camera uses standard H.264 video compression technology and PCM,
G.711a/u audio compression technology, which maximally guarantees the audio and video
quality.

This series network camera has mega pixel resolution and supports 12V DC/24V AC power. It
supports the wireless network application, bidirectional talk, digital water mark and etc.

It can be used alone or used in a network area. When it is used lonely, you can connect it to the
network and then use a network client-end. Due to its high definition, multiple functions and
various applications, this series network camera is widely used in many indoor environments and
other important area surveillance.
