The precaution measure is divided into ‘Warnings’ and ‘Cautions’:
Warnings: Serious injury or death may be caused if any of these warnings are
neglected.
Cautions: Injury or equipment damage may be caused if any of these cautions are
neglected.
Warnings Follow these safeguards to
prevent serious injury or death.
Cautions Follow these precautions to

Warnings:
Please adopt the power adapter which can meet the safety extra low voltage
(SELV) standard. And source with 12 VDC or 24 VAC (depending on models)
according to the IEC60950-1 and Limited Power Source standard.
To reduce the risk of fire or electrical shock, do not expose this product to rain or
moisture.
This installation should be made by a qualified service person and should
conform to all the local codes.
Please install blackouts equipment into the power supply circuit for convenient
supply interruption.
Please make sure that the ceiling can support more than 50(N) Newton gravities
if the camera is fixed to the ceiling.
If the product does not work properly, please contact your dealer or the nearest
service center. Never attempt to disassemble the camera yourself. (We shall not
assume any responsibility for problems caused by unauthorized repair or
maintenance.)
v
Cautions:
Make sure the power supply voltage is correct before using the camera. 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 the strong light such as sun or incandescent lamp.
The strong light can cause fatal damage to the camera.
The sensor may be burned out by a laser beam, so when any laser equipment is
being used, make sure that the surface of the sensor not be exposed to the laser
beam.
Do not place the camera in extremely hot, cold temperatures (the operating
temperature should be between -30°C to +60°C, or -40°C to +60°C if the camera
model has an "H" in its suffix), dusty or damp environment, and do not expose it
to high electromagnetic radiation.
To avoid heat accumulation, ensure there is good ventilation to the device. Keep the camera away from water and any liquids. While shipping, pack the camera in its original, or equivalent, packing materials.
Or packing the same texture.
Improper use or replacement of the battery may result in hazard of explosion.
Please use the manufacturer recommended battery type.
Notes:
For the camera supports IR, you are required to pay attention to the following
precautions to prevent IR reflection:
Dust or grease on the Turret cover will cause IR reflection. Please do not remove
the Turret cover film until the installation is finished. If there is dust or grease on
the Turret cover, clean the Turret cover with clean soft cloth and isopropyl
alcohol.
vi
Make certain the installation location does not have reflective surfaces of objects
too close to the camera. The IR light from the camera may reflect back into the
lens causing 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 Turret cover to
camera body so that the foam ring and the Turret cover are attached seamlessly.

2.2 Setting the Network Camera over the WAN

Purpose:
This section explains how to connect the network camera to the WAN with a static IP
or a dynamic IP.

2.2.1 Static IP Connection

Before you start:
Please apply a static IP from an ISP (Internet Service Provider). With the static IP
address, you can connect the network camera via a router or connect it to the WAN
directly.
Connecting the network camera via a router
Steps:
1. Connect the network camera to the router.
2. Assign a LAN IP address, the subnet mask and the gateway. Refer to Section 2.1.2
for detailed IP address configuration of the network camera.
3. Save the static IP in the router.
4. Set port mapping, e.g., 80, 8000, and 554 ports. The steps for port mapping vary
according to the different routers. Please call the router manufacturer for
assistance with port mapping.
Note: Refer to Appendix 2 for detailed information about port mapping.
5. Visit the network camera through a web browser or the client software over the
internet.
Figure 2-10 Accessing the Camera through Router with Static IP
Connecting the network camera with static IP directly
You can also save the static IP in the camera and directly connect it to the internet
11
without using a router. Refer to Section 2.1.2 for detailed IP address configuration of
the network camera.
Figure 2-11 Accessing the Camera with Static IP Directly

2.2.2 Dynamic IP Connection

Before you start:
Please apply a dynamic IP from an ISP. With the dynamic IP address, you can connect
the network camera to a modem or a router.
Connecting the network camera via a router
Steps:
1. Connect the network camera to the router.
2. In the camera, assign a LAN IP address, the subnet mask and the gateway. Refer
to Section 2.1.2 for detailed IP address configuration of the network camera.
3. In the router, set the PPPoE user name, password and confirm the password.
4. Set port mapping. E.g. 80, 8000, and 554 ports. The steps for port mapping vary
depending on different routers. Please call the router manufacturer for assistance
with port mapping.
Note: Refer to Appendix 2 for detailed information about port mapping.
5. Apply a domain name from a domain name provider.
6. Configure the DDNS settings in the setting interface of the router.
7. Visit the camera via the applied domain name.
Connecting the network camera via a modem
Purpose:
This camera supports the PPPoE auto dial-up function. The camera gets a public IP
address by ADSL dial-up after the camera is connected to a modem. You need to
12
configure the PPPoE parameters of the network camera. Refer to Section 6.1.3
Configuring PPPoE Settings for detailed configuration.
Figure 2-12 Accessing the Camera with Dynamic IP
Note: The obtained IP address is dynamically assigned via PPPoE, so the IP address
always changes after rebooting the camera. To solve the inconvenience of the
dynamic IP, you need to get a domain name from the DDNS provider (E.g.
DynDns.com). Please follow the steps below for normal domain name resolution and
private domain name resolution to solve the problem.
Normal Domain Name Resolution
Figure 2-13 Normal Domain Name Resolution
Steps:
1. Apply a domain name from a domain name provider.
2. Configure the DDNS settings in the DDNS Settings interface of the network
camera. Refer to Section 6.1.2 Configuring DDNS Settings for detailed
configuration.
3. Visit the camera via the applied domain name.
Private Domain Name Resolution
13
Figure 2-14 Private Domain Name Resolution
Steps:
1. Install and run the IP Server software in a computer with a static IP.
2. Access the network camera through the LAN with a web browser or the client
software.
3. Enable DDNS and select IP Server as the protocol type. Refer to Section 6.1.2
Configuring DDNS Settings for detailed configuration.
