1. Power-On: Connect the DC12V power supply adapter with the power supply socket.
2. Initial Configuration: Upon powering on, the remote control receiver light will turn on and start
blinking red. The camera head will move and adjust into the HOME position (intermediate
position of both horizontal and vertical). When the remote control receiver light stops
blinking red, it will stay on and turn green; this means the self-checking is finished.
- Note: After the Power-On self-test is completed If you press “set preset” then “0”, the
camera head automatically moves to the preset HOME position any time you press “0”.
1.3 Video Output
The OTTICA has a variety of video outputs including LAN, HDMI and 3G-SDI.
1. Video Output from LAN
A. Network Cable Connection Port: No.12 in Figure1.1;
B. Webpage Login:
- The OTTICA-4K is set to auto DHCP so you’ll need to connect the camera to devices
that can automatically assign an IP address, such as routers and switches.
- Next, you’ll have to use an IP scanning software to find the camera’s IP address (visit
the OTTICA-4K product page at www.ikancorp.com to find a link to our recommended
software for IP scanning).
- Copy and paste the camera’s IP address and paste it into your web browser’s address
bar and press “Enter” to proceed into the login page.
- Enter the user name “admin” and password “admin” (factory default) and press ”Enter”
to proceed into the preview page.
- If you do not have the latest version of Flash installed, click on the button that says “Get
ADOBE Flash Player.”
- After you’ve installed the latest version of flash, the camera feed should be visible and
you can now perform PTZ control, video recording, playback, configuration, and other
operation.
- NOTE: See chapter 4.1 for more details.
2. HDMI Video Output

4. Network Connection
4.1 Obtain Camera IP Address
The OTTICA is set to Auto DHCP, so you’ll need to obtain camera IP address before connecting to
a networtk. See 2 common solutions to obtain the camera IP address.
Solution 1:
1. Connect the camera to a device that can automatically assign an IP address, such as routers
and switches.
2. Use an IP Search Tool to search LAN segment, such as “192.168.5.0~192.168.5.255”. We
suggest using “SoftPerfect Network Scanner” or “Advanced IP Scanner” software to get the
search results.
3. Then search the results and refer to the MAC address pasted on the bottom of the camera to
obtain the camera IP address.
Reference Image:

Page 24
Solution 2:
1. Connect the camera to devices that can automatically assign IP address, such as routers and
switches.
2. Enter into the Management Interface of the router or switch and obtain the camera IP
address with reference to the MAC address pasted on the bottom of the camera.

6.2 Troubleshooting
1. No Video Output
A. Check whether the camera power supply is connected, that the voltage is normal, and
that the power indicator is lit.
B. Check to see if the camera performs the self-inspection after restarted.
C. Check whether the bottom of the DIP switch is in the normal operating mode
D. Check whether the video output cable or video display is normal.
- 43 -
Page 44
2. Image Dithering When Zooming In or Out
A. Check whether the camera installation position is solid.
B. Whether there is a shaking machine or objects around the camera.
3. Remote Controller Not Working
A. The remote control address could be set to 1 (if the has been set back to the factory
defaults, the remote control addresses need to be set back to 1 also).
B. Check if the batteries are low or if they are installed properly in the remote controller.
C. Check if the camera working mode is the normal operating mode
D. Check whether the menu is closed. Camera control through the remote controller is only
available after exiting the menu. If video is being output from LAN, the menu will not be
displayed. After the menu automatically exists 30 seconds later, it can be controlled by
remote controller.
4. Serial Port Not Working
A. Check if the camera serial device protocol, baud rate, and address are all consistent.
B. Check if the control cable is connected properly.
C. Check if the camera working mode is in the normal operating mode
5. Web Page Not Logging In
A. Check if the camera outputs video normally by connecting directly to the screen or
monitor.
B. Check whether the network cable is connected properly. (Ethernet port flashes yellow
light to indicate normal network cable connection).
C. Check if your camera’s IP address is consistent with the computer network segment.
