Proper Disposal of Electrical and Electronic Equipment (EEE)
The European Union (EU) has enacted Waste Electrical and Electronic
Equipment Directive 2002/96/EC (WEEE), which aims to prevent EEE waste from
arising; to encourage reuse, recycling, and recovery of EEE waste; and to
promote environmental responsibility.
In accordance with these regulations, all EEE products labeled with the “crossed
out wheeled bin” either on the product itself or in the product literature must not be
disposed of in regular rubbish bins, mixed with regular household or other commercial waste, or by
other regular municipal waste collection means. Instead, and in order to prevent possible harm to the
environment or human health, all EEE products (including any cables that came with the product)
should be responsibly discarded or recycled.
To identify a responsible disposal method nearby, please contact the local waste collection or
recycling service, the original place of purchase or product supplier, or the responsible government
authority in the area. Business users should contact their supplier or refer to their purchase contract.

Warning:
Do not drop the camera or subject it to physical shock.
Do not touch sensor modules with fingers. If cleaning is necessary, use a clean cloth with a
bit of ethanol and wipe it gently. If the camera will not be used for an extended period of
time, put on the lens cap to protect the sensor from dirt.
Do not aim the camera lens at strong light, such as the sun or an incandescent lamp, which
can seriously damage the camera.
Make sure that the surface of the sensor is not exposed to a laser beam, which could burn
out the sensor.
If the camera will be fixed to a ceiling, verify that the ceiling can support more than 50
newtons (50-N) of gravity, or over three times the camera’s weight.
The camera should be packed in its original packing if it is reshipped.
Caution:
To avoid damage from overheating or unit failure, assure that there is sufficient temperature
regulation to support the unit’s requirements (cooling/heating). Operating temperature should be kept
in the range -40° to 50°C (-40° to 122°F), with no more than 90% non-condensing humidity.
Attention:
Afin d'éviter tout dommage dû à une surchauffe ou toute panne de l'unité, assurez-vous que la
régulation de température est suffisante pour répondre aux exigences de l'unité

Site Preparation
There are several requirements that should be properly addressed prior to installation at the site.
The following specifications are requirements for proper installation and operation of the unit:
Ambient Environment Conditions: Avoid positioning the unit near heaters or heating system
outputs. Avoid exposure to direct sunlight. Use proper maintenance to ensure that the unit is free
from dust, dirt, smoke, particles, chemicals, smoke, water or water condensation, and exposure
to EMI.
Accessibility: The location used should allow easy access to unit connections and cables.
Safety: Cables and electrical cords should be routed in a manner that prevents safety hazards,
such as from tripping, wire fraying, overheating, etc. Ensure that nothing rests on the unit’s
cables or power cords.
Ample Air Circulation: Leave enough space around the unit to allow free air circulation.
Cabling Considerations: Units should be placed in locations that are optimal for the type of
video cabling used between the unit and the cameras and external devices. Using a cable longer
than the manufacturer’s specifications for optimal video signal may result in degradation of color
and video parameters.
Physical Security: The unit provides threat detection for physical security systems. In order to
ensure that the unit cannot be disabled or tampered with, the system should be installed with
security measures regarding physical access by trusted and un-trusted parties.
Network Security: The unit transmits over IP to security personnel for video surveillance.
Proper network security measures should be in place to assure networks remain operating and
free from malicious interference. Install the unit on the backbone of a trusted network.
Electrostatic Safeguards: The unit and other equipment connected to it (relay outputs, alarm
inputs, racks, carpeting, etc.) shall be properly grounded to prevent electrostatic discharge.
The physical installation of the unit is the first phase of making the unit operational in a security plan. The
goal is to physically place the unit, connect it to other devices in the system, and to establish network
connectivity. When finished with the physical installation, complete the second phase of installation,
which is the setup and configuration of the unit.

2 Overview
The IOI HD CF-5212/CF-5222 fixed cameras provide real-time, H.264 and MJPEG streaming video with
the highest quality image and video analytics. Featuring a compact, sophisticated and aesthetic
mechanical design, the lightweight CF-5212 and CF-5222 cameras are easy to install and operate. Two
models are available:
The CF-5212 is a 1.3 megapixel, HD 720p device.
The CF-5222 is a 2.1 megapixel, Full HD 1080p device
The cameras include a DC-Iris lens with True Day/Night performance. They provide real-time, H.264 and
MJPEG streaming video with the highest quality image. The lightweight, weatherproof, indoor/outdoor
cameras are easy to install and operate and feature a compact, sophisticated and aesthetic mechanical
design.
Figure 1: IOI HD Analytic Fixed IP Camera
The IOI HD fixed camera delivers outstanding analytic performance. It offers enhanced detection, even
of small objects from a distance, even in scenes where there are large or multiple objects and movement
in up to 80% of the frame. The system can detect sophisticated intruders and enable the identification of
people standing upright, which reduces false alarms.
The camera’s video analytics provides alarms when it automatically detects specific events, such as
region entrance, fence trespassing, tripwire crossover, which trigger an automatic notification. You can
define the events and location in the video of the image that can be detected with user-customizable
rules, positioning criteria, responses, and scheduled actions.
Caution:
If you are using FLIR’s Latitude VMS, we recommend that you configure the camera’s settings via the
AdminCenter. This is because the camera’s web-based interface might be overwritten by Latitude
settings. Refer to the Latitude online help for information regarding configuring camera settings.
Attention:
Si vous utilisez le logiciel de gestion de vidéo Latitude de FLIR, nous vous conseillons de configurer
les paramètres de la caméra via l'AdminCenter. En effet, l'interface Internet de la caméra peut être
remplacée par les paramètres Latitude. Veuillez consulter l'aide en ligne Latitude pour de plus amples
informations sur la configuration des paramètres de la caméra.

Mounting Instructions
5.1 Outdoor Installation
Read the instructions provided in this chapter thoroughly before installing the camera. Following are
additional considerations for outdoor installation:
For outside wiring installation, always use weatherproof equipment, such as boxes,
receptacles, connectors, etc.
For electrical wiring, use the properly rated sheathed cables for conditions to which the cable
will be exposed (for example, moisture, heat, UV, physical requirements, etc.).
Plan ahead to determine where to install infrastructure weatherproof equipment. Whenever
possible, ground components to an outdoor ground.
Use best security practices to design and maintain secured camera access, communications
infrastructure, tamper-proof outdoor boxes, etc.
All electrical work must be performed in accordance with local regulatory requirements
5.2 Lens Mounting
Before installing your camera, install the camera lens.
Note:
The camera lens is sold separately and should be selected to match the needs of the scene and to
optimize the use of the camera capabilities. See Mounting and Lens Accessories.
Selecting the Proper Lens
DC Auto Iris vs. Manual Iris Lens
A DC auto iris lens is required when operating the camera in Auto Iris exposure mode. Auto iris mode
is recommended for use in indoor environments with mixed lighting sources, where the main source is
fluorescent lighting and natural lighting enters the scene through windows and other exposed areas. In
all other cases, Auto Shutter exposure mode is recommended. The camera can operate in one of the
following three exposure modes: Manual (using set values for shutter and iris), Auto Iris, and Auto
Shutter. Auto Shutter and Manual modes do not require an auto iris lens. A manual iris lens can be
used instead.
Setting the Camera’s Focal Length
Focal length determines the scene’s viewing angle, or, in other words, the dimensions of the scene which
will be generated by the camera. The trade-off for focal length is between the width of the scene and the
magnification of objects appearing in the scene. The longer the focal length is, a narrower scene will be
achieved, while the size of objects will increase. Greater size means that more pixels will be used to
represent each object, and greater level of details will be present.
Installation
18
CF-5212/CF-5222 User and Installation Guide
April 25, 2017
In a similar manner, the shorter the focal length is, the smaller the size of each object will be, while the
captured scene will become wider.
Note:
Use a short focal length to cover a wide area and detect objects at close distances. Use a long focal
length to achieve greater detection distances while narrowing the Field of View.
After you select your lenses and see the amount of detail provided, consider your security surveillance
coverage, camera locations, and any additional needs that may be discovered. Consult your FLIR
representative if you have any questions.
To mount a lens on the CF-5212/CF-5222 camera
1. Remove the plastic insert covering the threaded camera lens mount.
Tip:
Do not touch the sensor or allow dust to accumulate in the lens mount.
2. If you are using a C-mount lens, screw a 5mm adapter ring into the C-mount to convert it
to a CS-mount (see figures below).
Figure 5: C-CS Mount Adaptor
Note:
The camera is NOT shipped with a C to CS adapter. The adaptor is shipped only with
lenses that require it in order to work with the camera.

6 Using the DNA Utility to Search and
Access the Camera
The Discovery Network Assistant (DNA) is a user-friendly utility that is designed to easily discover and
configure FLIR Professional Security edge devices on a network. The DNA tool has a simple user
interface and does not require any installation. The software is provided as a single, standalone
executable. It runs on any PC.
DNA provides a central location for listing all the supported FLIR Professional Security camera models
accessible over the network. Once listed, each camera can be right-clicked to access and change the
network settings. If the network settings are changed for some reason, a new search will relist the
units. The units may then be configured via the web interface.
If the camera is managed by FLIR’s Horizon or Meridian NVR and is configured as a DHCP server,
Horizon or Meridian automatically assigns the camera an IP address. Configure the camera with
DHCP-enabled.
If FLIR’s Latitude VMS is being used, configure the unit with a static IP address rather than with
DHCP. This ensures that the IP address will not automatically change in the future and interfere with
configurations and communication.
The camera must be made accessible for setting network addresses.
Note:
The IOI HD fixed camera is supported by DNA version 2.1 and above. For detailed guidelines about
DNA and its usage, refer to the DNA 2.1 User Manual, which is included in the CD provided with the
camera, or click here to download the DNA User Manual from the Tools section.

GOV Settings
Users can set the GOV length to determine the frame structure (I-frames and P-frames) in a video
stream for saving bandwidth. The setting range is from 1 to 255. A longer GOV means decreasing the
frequency of I-frames. The default setting is 30. Click SAVE to confirm the GOV setting.
H.264 Profile
The H.264 standard defines 21 sets of capabilities. These are referred to as profiles and they target
specific classes of applications. In the security industry, the most common are as follows:
Baseline Profile (BP)
Primarily for low-cost applications that require additional data loss robustness, Baseline Profile
is used in some videoconferencing and mobile applications. This is the most common profile
used in IP security cameras due to the low computational cost of processing the video using
this profile.
Main Profile (MP)
This profile provides improved picture quality at reduced bandwidths and storage costs and is
becoming more common as the camera processors (DSPs) become more able to handle the
processing load. Main Profile can save 10-12% over Baseline. This is the default profile.
High Profile (HP)
High Profile is the primary profile for HD broadcast applications. It can save 10-12% of the
storage cost over Main Profile. However, it may also increase video latency, depending on the
stream structure. Units default to the Main Profile to provide the best trade-off between
storage size and video latency.
Click SAVE to confirm the settings.
Video Compression
From the Video Compression page, you can specify MJPEG and H.264 compression settings.

Exposure Screen
The Exposure screen is used to configure lens settings and exposure modes. The exposure is the
amount of light received by the image sensor. It is determined by the amount of exposure by the
sensor’s shutter speed, lens aperture, and screen illumination.
Administrators may either allow the camera to automatically select an exposure level using a
programmed algorithm or choose the level themselves. The higher the shutter speed that the
administrator selects, the lower the exposure level and vice versa.
The displayed Exposure screen depend on whether Shutter WDR is configured as On or Off in the Misc.
screen.
Exposure Screen with Shutter WDR On
Two exposure options are available when Shutter WDR is set to On: WDR Multiple Shutter and WDR
Multiple Shutter RSS.
WDR Multiple Shutter (True WDR) – The camera’s shutter speed works automatically to
achieve a consistent video output level. You can select a suitable shutter speed according to
the environmental luminance.
WDR Multiple Shutter RSS – This setting is recommended when flickering occurs in indoor
applications where fluorescent lighting is used. The shutter speed decreases in order to
compensate for decreased ambient lighting.

Manual Mode – Manual mode is used generally where light levels are fixed and the auto
settings do not provide the perfect exposure. It is recommended for scenes such as
indoor scenes, where there is a fixed lighting contrast and a constant, precise exposure
is required.
Manual Mode opens the iris completely with a fixed gain to a fixed shutter speed. Users
can select a suitable shutter speed according to the environmental luminance.
Increasing the value of the fixed shutter increases the amount of light entering the
sensor. This allows a brighter and more detailed image. Similarly, utilizing gain and
increasing its level increases the sensitivity of the image sensor, which brightens the
image and add details. This increases the level of noise in the image.
In Manual Mode, the administrator can select a fixed shutter speed and gain from dropdown menus. The smaller the shutter speed number (the higher the shutter speed), the
lower the exposure level. The higher the gain, the brighter the picture.

Advanced Picture Settings
The options for the Advanced Picture Settings screen depend on whether Shutter WDR is configured
as On or Off from the Misc screen. In both cases, 3DNR and 2DNR noise reduction settings are
configured from this screen.
Noise reduction settings are used to reduce or eliminate artifacts that can limit the ability to positively
identify an object. There are two types of noise: luminance and color (chroma) noise.
3DNR and 2DNR settings reduce luminance noise, which is composed of dots of various brightness
levels (black, white and gray). It is not recommended to completely eliminate luminance noise, which
can result in unnatural images.
Advanced Picture Settings with WDR On
When Advanced Picture Settings are enabled (configured as On), the user can configure only 3DNR
and 2DNR settings from this screen.
Figure 71: Advanced Picture Settings Screen with WDR On
3DNR
3DNR (3D Noise Reduction) provides superior noise reduction and is recommended for use in in extra
low-light conditions. It is especially useful for reducing blur with moving objects. The 3DNR function
reduces image noise/snow in low-light conditions by comparing adjacent frames. A higher level of
3DNR generates relatively enhanced noise reduction, although it creates more motion blur than 2DNR
on moving objects.
The noise reduction is selectable from Off, Low, Middle, and High. The default setting is Low. Click
SET to confirm the new settings.
2DNR
2DNR (2D Noise Reduction) analyzes individual frames pixel by pixel and frame by frame to eliminate
environmental noise and deliver optimized image quality, especially in low-light conditions. 2DNR
tends to produce superior results for moving objects when applied to areas in the field of view where
movement is present. However, it is less precise than 3DNR.
Settings include Enable and Disable. The default setting is Disable. Click SET to confirm the new
settings.

Advanced Picture Settings with WDR Off
When Advanced Picture Settings are disabled (configured as Off), in addition to 3DNR and 2DNR
settings, the user can configure Backlight Compensation and Gamma WDR from this screen.
Figure 72: Advanced Picture Settings Screen with WDR Off
Backlight compensation is used in images where a bright light source is behind the subject of interest.
Without backlight compensation, the subject would normally appear in silhouette. The backlight
function of the camera allows it to adjust the exposure of the entire image to properly expose the
subject in the foreground.
Select On or Off. The default setting is Off. Click SET to confirm the new settings.
Gamma WDR, also known as dWDR. resolves high contrast or changing light issues in order to
enhance the image quality. It does this by producing a larger amount of details in both the dark and
bright areas of the image. Such scenes combine areas with different lighting conditions, where some
areas are very bright and others are dark. If this function was not used, the image either would be
overexposed or too bright in bright areas and completely dark in dark areas.
Select On or Off. The default setting On. Click SET to confirm the new settings.
IR Function
The IR Function setting activates the IR Cut (IRC) filter for electronic day/night operation. The
day/night IRC switching mechanism operates according to the ambient light level.

Smart – Smart mode enhances monochrome/Night mode stability when IR illumination is
dominant and keeps the camera from switching between Day and Night modes. In this mode,
the IR Cut filter is on (i.e. monochrome/Night mode) when the IR LED illuminator also is
activated. This prevents the camera from returning to color/Day mode.
Click SET to confirm the new setting.
Miscellaneous
From the Misc. (Miscellaneous) tab, you can set the TV System and Shutter WDR.
Figure 74: Misc. Screen
Note:
The selection of Shutter WDR On or Off determines which Camera > Exposure screen is displayed.
TV System Settings
Select the video system setting: 25 fps (PAL) or 30 fps (NTSC). The default TV system is 30 fps
(NTSC). Click SET to confirm the setting.
Note:
After changing TV System settings, the camera restarts automatically. You must re-enter the unit’s IP
address again in your browser in order to use the unit with the new settings. The camera restores to
factory defaults and the analytics settings are deleted.
Shutter WDR
The Shutter WDR (Wide Dynamic Range) function, also known as True WDR or multi-exposure WDR,
resolves high contrast or changing light issues and creates a constant video output level. The camera
creates a new image with a wide dynamic range by using a combination of slow- and fast-exposure
shutters and an algorithm to determine the optimal mix of light and dark regions within the scene from
the two shutters.
Figure 75: Shutter WDR On
Figure 76: Shutter WDR Off
Shutter WDR is selectable between On or Off:
When On is selected, the image has a wide dynamic range, so that the IP camera can capture
a greater scale of brightness. This is the default setting.
Selecting Off disables this function.
Click SET to confirm the new setting.

9.6 Analytics Tab
The IOI HD camera includes a rich set of video analytic functionality embedded in its firmware. The
Analytics tab contains menus for defining the camera’s Field of View depth and detection rules,
including region entrance, loitering, tripwire crossover, fence trespass, unattended baggage, stopped
vehicle, and object removal.
Figure 77: Analytics > Manual Depth Screen
In real-time, the camera sends notifications and alarms upon the occurrence of events. You can set
customizable rules and criteria to define the perimeter, region, and what to detect. The camera’s
analytic software ensures a high probability of detection with an extremely low false alarm rate.
Use the Analytics tab to configure the following functions:

Caution:
The camera is disarmed when configuring Analytics. Detection will not take place until the camera is
manually re-armed from the Home screen.
Attention:
La caméra est désactivée lors de la configuration d'Analytics. La détection n'aura lieu qu'après que la
caméra soit réactivée depuis l'écran Accueil.
Depth
The Depth screen enables you define the perspective of the scene being monitored and to. It is used
to set human markers, ground guidelines, camera height, horizon, and advanced depth regions (such
as hills, planes and fences), which create a virtual 3D model for measurement of distances and sizes
from the perspective of the camera. The screen contains a wizard that facilitates configuring the depth
settings. See Figure 77: Analytics > Manual Depth Screen (page 85).
Automatic Depth Calibration
Depth settings can be configured automatically by using the Auto Calibration (automatic depth
calibration) algorithm from the Auto depth screen. By default, the Auto screen is displayed.
Figure 78: Auto Depth Screen - Auto Calibration
Note:
The Auto screen remains the default setting unless you select the Manual depth screen. If you select
the Manual screen and click APPLY, the Manual screen remains the default setting until you select
the Auto screen again and the Auto Calibration process is completed.

The Auto Calibration function automatically configures scene depth and calculates camera height,
focal length, and tilt angle according to the scene depth. The system discovers people in the scene
and configures human markers automatically. This function eliminates the time and effort required to
manually add human markers.
Note:
If you use the Auto Calibration function, it is possible to configure additional settings manually and
verify the Auto Calibration settings after the Auto Calibration process is completed. Click MANUAL in
order to configure additional settings.
To automatically configure depth settings
1. Verify that the camera is installed at a height of at least four meters (13 feet).
2. Verify that the horizon is less than 30% of the Field of View (FoV).
Figure 79: Horizon Line
3. From the Settings tab, select Analytics > Depth. The Auto depth screen opens. See
Figure 78: Auto Depth Screen - Auto Calibration.
4. From the Units drop-down list, select Feet or Meter.
5. Select Set estimated height.
6. Enter the estimated camera height in the text box.
7. Click START. The camera automatically calibrates the depth.
8. Be sure that a person is walking along the Y (Vertical) axis of the FoV while Auto
Calibration is in process. When the progress bar reaches 100%, the Auto Calibration is
completed and the calculated results are displayed.
Note:
While Auto Calibration is in progress, you can proceed with the next steps in the analytic
configuration.
Caution:
1. The Auto Configuration algorithm takes at least five minutes to run. If you stop
the procedure before the progress bar reaches 100%, the analytic process will
reset.
2. If you change from Auto to Manual mode, you must wait until the analytic
process resets in order to use Manual mode.

time.
2. For detailed instructions how to set markers and guidelines, follow instructions in the
HTML Edition Units User’s Guide.
Solo Setup
The Solo Setup function enables you to install and setup the camera at a remote site without requiring
another person’s assistance. It is very useful and should be used even if you have another person’s
assistance.
With this feature, you can:
Move around within the camera’s Field of View.
Use the camera to record a set of snapshots of the scene while the user is moving around the
camera Field of View. Creating the recording of the person in the FoV can be used to adjust
settings without requiring another physical walk through the FoV.
Use the recording of his movement to setup the depth by marking his height on the camera’s
Field of View.
