Do not install the product on surfaces or in
places that are vibrating.
Do not install the product near radiation
sources.
Do not install the product near heat sources,
like radiators or other equipment that produces
some heat.
If the product is not classified by any IP class,
do not install the product in very cold or hot
temperatures (please refer to the working
temperature specified in the specification sheet
of the product), dusty, dirty or damp
environment.
If the product is classified by any IP class, never
touch the product cover directly with your
fingers, because the acidic sweat of the fingers
may damage the surface coating of the product
cover. To clean the inside and outside of the
product cover, use a soft and dry cloth. In any
case, do not use alkaline detergents.
The correct configuration of all passwords and
other security settings is the sole responsibility
of the installer and/or end-user (this applies

Special Installation Instructions for Cameras
Do not touch the sensor module with your
fingers.
Do not aim the camera or camera lens at a
strong light such as the sun or a bright lamp.
Irreversible damage to the camera can be
caused by a strong light.
Do not expose the sensor of the product to
laser beams as this may damage the sensor.
If the product supports IR, you need to take
some precautions to prevent IR reflection. Do
not install the product close to reflective
surfaces of objects as this may cause reflection.
If the product has a dome cover, please remove
the protection film only after installation to
prevent dust or grease on the camera which
can cause reflection. The foam ring around the
lens must be seated flush against the inner
surface of the bubble to isolate the lens from
the IR LEDS. Fasten the dome cover to the
camera body so that the foam ring and the
dome cover are attached seamlessly.
For cleaning use a clean cloth with a bit of
ethanol and wipe it carefully and gently. In any
case do not use alkaline detergents.
If a glove is provided in the package, please use
it to open the product cover. Never touch the
product cover directly with fingers, because the

3.2 EXPOSURE
EXPOSURE MODE
You can set the EXPOSURE MODE to GLOBAL,
BLC, HLC, or WDR.
GLOBAL
GLOBAL refers to the normal exposure mode
which adjusts lighting distribution, variations,
and non-standard processing.
BLC (Backlight Compensation)
BLC (Backlight Compensation) compensates
light to the object in the front to make it clear,
but this may cause over-exposure of the
background where the light is strong.
HLC (Highlight Compensation)
HLC stands for highlight compensation. The
camera detects the strong spots (the overexposure portion of image), then reduces the
brightness of the strong spots to improve the
overall images.
WDR (Wide Dynamic Range)
The wide dynamic range (WDR) function helps
the camera provide clear images even under
back light circumstances. When there are both
very bright and very dark areas simultaneously
in the field of view, WDR balances the
brightness level of the whole image and

5. Click the direction arrow to control the
camera.
(1) Click the up/down direction button to select
the item.
(2) Click Iris + to confirm the selection.
(3) Click the left/right direction button to adjust
the value of the selected item.
3.1 FORMAT
You can set the video format to 2MP@25fps or
provides clear images with details.
AGC (Auto Gain Control)
It optimizes the clarity of the image in poor
light conditions. The AGC level can be set to
HIGH, MEDIUM or LOW.
Note:
The noise will be amplified when the AGC is on.
SLOW SHUTTER
SLOW SHUTTER increases the exposure time on
a single frame, which makes a camera more
sensitive to the light so it can produce images
even in low lux conditions.
2MP@30fps.
Page 5
You can set the SLOW SHUTTER function as
OFF, x2, x4, x6, x8, x10, x12, x14, or x16
according to the different light conditions.
Note:
This function is not available, when adopting
power over coaxial to supply power.
3.3 DAY/NIGHT
COLOR, B&W (Black White), and AUTO are
selectable for DAY and NIGHT switches.
COLOR
The image is colorful in day mode all the time.
B&W
The image is black and white all the time. It is
recommended turn the IR LIGHT on in poor
light conditions.
IR LIGHT
You can turn on/off the IR LIGHT to meet the
requirements of different circumstances.
SMART IR
The Smart IR function is used to adjust the light
to its most suitable intensity, and prevent the
image from over exposure. The SMART IR value
can be adjusted from 0 to 3. The greater the
value is, the more obvious effects are.
AUTO
You can turn on/off the IR LIGHT, and set the
value of SMART IR in this menu.

SMART IR
The Smart IR function is used to adjust the light
to its most suitable intensity, and prevent the
image from over exposure. You can choose
MODE 1 or MODE 2. MODE 1 could reach the
most ideal effects of the low illumination, but it
might cause a delay by contrast with the actual
scenario. MODE 2 represents the normal mode.
The SMART IR value can be adjusted from 0 to
3. The greater the value is, the more obvious
effects are.
D►N THRESHOLD (Day to Night Threshold)
Day to Night Threshold is used to control the
sensitivity of switching the day mode to the
night mode. You can set the value from 1 to 9.
The larger the value is, the more sensitive the
camera is.
N►D THRESHOLD (Night to Day Threshold)
Night to Day Threshold is used to control the
sensitivity of switching the night mode to the
day mode. You can set the value from 1 to 9.
The larger the value is, the more sensitive the
camera is.

WHITE BALANCE
White balance, the white rendition function of
the camera, is to adjust the color temperature
according to the environment. It can remove
unrealistic color casts in the image. You can set
WHITE BALANCE mode as AUTO, or MANUAL.
AUTO
Under AUTO mode, white balance is being
adjusted automatically according to the color
temperature of the scene illumination.

BRIGHTNESS
Brightness refers to the brightness of the
image. You can set the brightness value from 1
to 9 to darken or brighten the image. The
greater the value is, the brighter the image is.
CONTRAST
This feature enhances the difference in color
and light between parts of an image. You can
set the CONTRAST value from 1 to 9.
SHARPNESS
Sharpness determines the amount of detail an
imaging system can reproduce. You can set the
SHARPNESS value from 1 to 9.
SATURATION
Adjust this feature to change the saturation of
the color. The value ranges from 1 to 9.
3 DNR (3D DNR)
3 DNR refers to 3D digital noise reduction.
Comparing with the general 2D digital noise
reduction, the 3D digital noise reduction
function processes the noise between two
frames besides processing the noise in one
frame. The noise will be much less and the
video will be clearer.
MIRROR
OFF, H, V, and HV are selectable for mirror.
OFF: The mirror function is disabled.
H: The image flips 180° horizontally.
V: The image flips 180° vertically.
HV: The image flips 180° both horizontally and
vertically.
