Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions.
Safety Notice
The GV-IPCAM uses a Lithium battery as the power supply for its internal
real-time clock (RTC). The battery should not be replaced unless required!
If the battery does need replacing, please observe the following:
Danger of Explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced
Replace only with the same or equivalent battery, as recommended by
the manufacturer
Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer's instructions

Note for Adjusting Focus and Zoom
When adjusting the Focus and Zoom Screws, do not over tighten the
Focus and Zoom screws. The screws only need to be as tight as your
finger can do it. It is not necessary to use any tools to get them tighter.
Doing so can damage the structure of lens.
The maximum torque value for all the zoom and focus screws is 0.049 N.m
vii
Note for Installing Camera Outdoor
When installing the camera outdoor, be sure that:
1. The camera is set up above the junction box to prevent water from
entering the camera along the cables.
2. Any PoE, power, audio and I/O cables are waterproofed using
waterproof silicon rubber or the like.
viii
3. After opening the camera cover, ensure the screws are tightened
and the cover is in place.
4. Make sure the housing cover is properly secured to prevent water
from entering and damaging the inner housing.
ix
Note for Silica Gel Bags
1. The silica gel bag loses it effectiveness when the dry camera is
opened. To prevent the lens from fogging up, replace the silica gel
bag every time you open the camera, and conceal the gel bag in
camera within 2 minutes of exposing to open air.
2. When the camera is shipped, a silica gel bag will be included inside
the camera. For the first-time user, replace the silica gel bag prior to
the installation to avoid foggy live view.

Chapter 1 Vandal Proof IP Dome
(Part I)
The Vandal Proof IP Dome is a series of outdoor camera designed for
vandal protection. They are equipped with automatic infrared cut filters and
IR LED for day and night surveillance. The WDR Pro models can produce
clear image for scenes containing contrasting intensity of lights. The super low lux models can display color live view in near darkness. For related
models, see 1.2 Features.
These Vandal Proof IP Domes can be installed on wall and ceiling using
the standard package. They can also be installed on wall corners and
poles using the GV-Mount accessories (optional). For more details, see
GV-Mount Accessories Installation Guide on the Software DVD.

2.4 Installation
The Vandal Proof IP Dome is designed for outdoors. With the standard
package, you can install the camera on the ceiling.
Note: You can also install the camera:
on a power box (of the 4" square and double gang type) using the
standard package
to ceilings, wall corners (concave or convex), and poles using
optional mounting kits
For details on these installations, see GV-Mount Accessories Installation Guide on the Software DVD.
IMPORTANT: When installing the Vandal Proof IP Dome near the
corner, maintain at least 25 cm away from the walls to avoid reflection
problems.
1. Remove the housing cover with the supplied torx wrench.
2. Thread wires into the camera.
A. Unscrew the conduit connector from the back.
Figure 2-2
33
B. Unplug the conduit connector inside the housing and disintegrate
the connector. You should have 4 parts:

Figure 2-3
C. Remove the terminal block from the supplied power adapter.
(Power adapter is not supplied for GV-VD4711 / 5711)
D. Thread the audio wires (optional), TV out wire (optional), adapter
wires and I/O wires (optional) through the conduit entry and then
through part 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the conduit connector.
Tip:
1. To make the threading easier, it is advised to thread the wires
in the order described here.
2. Use a pair of pliers to help you pull the wires through the
camera.
For part 2, there are 8 holes each labeled with its diameter.
Remove the plugs and push the wires to the corresponding hole
listed below:

IMPORTANT:
1. Use the supplied ruler and leave about 10 cm of power and I/O
wires between their connectors on the camera and the cable
gland; leave at least 11 cm of audio/TV-out wires between their
connectors and the cable gland.
2. The plugs are used to prevent water from entering the camera
housing. Keep the unused holes plugged and save the
removed plugs for future use.
3. Only thread the wires through their designated holes on the
conduit connector to make sure the wires are properly sealed.

2.5 Connecting the Camera
Connect your Vandal Proof IP Dome to power, network and other wires
needed.
2.5.1 Power Connection
There are two ways to supply power to the camera:
Use a Power over Ethernet (PoE) adapter to connect the camera to the
network, and the power will be provided at the same time.
Plug the power adapter to the terminal block by inserting the striped
wire to the right pin (-) and the black wire to the left pin (+).
Figure 2-18
2.5.2 I/O Device Connections
The camera supports one digital input and one digital output of dry contact.

Chapter 3 Vandal Proof IP Dome
(Part III)
These Vandal Proof IP Domes are outdoor cameras equipped with a
removable IR-cut filter for optimal day and night surveillance. The cameras
adhere to IK10 vandal resistance and IP67 ingress protection. They can
support H.265 video codec to achieve better compression ratio while
maintaining high quality picture. For night operations, the cameras allow up
to 30 m (98.4 ft) effective IR distance. All models have P-Iris for precise
control of exposure and better image clarity and contrast. The Super Low
Lux model, featuring Wide Dynamic Range Pro (WDR Pro), provides clear
live views not only in near darkness but also under contrasting light
intensities. Adjustable in 3 axis (pan, tilt and rotate), the cameras offer
effective surveillance solution with all the essential features and excellent
image quality.

3.4 Installation
The Vandal Proof IP Dome is designed for outdoors. With the standard
package, you can install the camera on the ceiling.
Note: You can also install the camera to ceilings, wall corners (concave
or convex), and poles using optional mounting kits.
For details on these installations, see GV-Mount Accessories Installation Guide on the Software DVD.
1. Remove the housing cover with the supplied torx wrench.
Figure 3-2
2. Thread the Ethernet cable into conduit connector.
A. Remove the plug from the conduit connector.
Figure 3-3

B. Disintegrate the removed conduit connector. Thread the
Ethernet cable through the 3 parts.
Figure 3-4
C. Assemble the conduit connector.
Note: If you can’t plug the self-prepared RJ-45 connector into the jack of
the conduit, it is suggested to use the supplied RJ-45 connector.
3. Secure the back plate to the ceiling.
A. Paste the sticker to the ceiling. The triangle on the sticker
indicates the direction that the camera faces.

B. Drill 4 holes for screws. The recommended ones are indicated as
‘1’.
C. Insert the screw anchors to the 4 holes on the ceiling.
D. Secure the back plate to the ceiling with 4 long screws.
E. Align and secure the back plate to the rear side of the camera
with the supplied short screws.
4. Insert your micro SD card into the SD card slot.

IMPORTANT:
1. Loosen the screw indicated below before adjusting the camera pan
angle.
2. The front of the camera is marked with a white line in front of the
memory card slot. When adjusting the camera pan angle, avoid
turning the camera for more than 180 degrees in either direction.
Continuous rotation greater than 180 degrees could pull off the
internal cable and cause the camera to malfunction.

Note: You can choose to run the wires through a conduit pipe. After you
have threaded all the wires, install the supplied conduit converter and
plastic PG21 conduit connector with a self-prepared 1/2’’ conduit pipe to
the camera. Power will have to be supplied through a PoE adapter,
because the power adapter wire does not fit in a 1/2” pipe. You will have
to purchase your own PG21 conduit connector if you want to use 3/4” or
1” pipe.
