Warnings Follow these safeguards to

prevent serious injury or death.

Cautions Follow these precautions to

prevent potential injury or material damage.

Safety Instruction

These instructions are intended to ensure that the user can use the product correctly to avoid danger or property loss.

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:

 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.)

Thermometric Network Bullet Camera User Manual

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 -40°C ~ 65°C ), dusty or damp environment, and do not expose it to high electromagnetic radiation.

 To avoid heat accumulation, good ventilation is required for a proper operating

environment.

 Keep the camera away from water and any liquid.  While shipping, the camera should be packed in its original packing.  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 dome cover will cause IR reflection. Please do not remove

the dome cover film until the installation is finished. If there is dust or grease on the dome cover, clean the dome cover with clean soft cloth and isopropyl alcohol.

 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 dome cover to camera body so that the foam ring and the dome cover are attached seamlessly.

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.

Thermometric Network Bullet Camera User Manual

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 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:

Thermometric Network Bullet Camera User Manual

audio signal can be recorded only when the Video Type is Video & Audio. Resolution: Select the resolution of the video output. Bitrate Type: Select the bitrate type to constant or variable. Video Quality: When bitrate type is selected as Variable, 6 levels of video quality are selectable.

Frame Rate:

Set the frame rate to 1/16~25 fps. The frame rate is to describe the frequency at which the video stream is updated and it is measured by frames per second (fps). A higher frame rate is advantageous when there is movement in the video stream, as it maintains image quality throughout. Max. Bitrate: Set the max. bitrate to 256~16384 Kbps. The higher value corresponds to the higher video quality, but the higher bandwidth is required.

Note: The maximum limit of the max. bitrate value varies according to different

camera platforms. For some certain cameras, the maximum limit is 8192Kbps or 12288Kbps. Video Encoding: If the Stream Type is set to main stream: H.264 and MPEG4 are selectable; if the stream type is set to sub stream, H.264, MJPEG, and MPEG4 are selectable.

Note: The video encoding type varies according to different camera platforms.
