Installation Instructions
It is necessary to fix the device firmly if the product is installed on a wall or ceiling. 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 especially to IP Cameras and Recorders).
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 acidic sweat of the fingers may damage the surface coating of the product cover.

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.

You can turn on/off the infrared 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. 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.
3.4 VIDEO SETTINGS
Move the cursor to VIDEO SETTINGS and click Iris+ to enter the submenu. IMAGE MODE,
WHITE BALANCE, BRIGHTNESS, CONTRAST, SHARPNESS, SATURATION, 3 DNR, and MIRROR are adjustable.

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.
MANUAL
You can set the R-GAIN/B-GAIN value to adjust the shades of the red/blue color of the image.

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.
