VPort 26A-1MP Series

Quick Installation Guide

First Edition, March 2013

Overview

The VPort 26A-1MP series is a vandal-proof, IP66-rated, fixed dome IP
camera designed for outdoor use. With HD (720P, 1280 x 720 ) resolution,
H.264/MJPEG 3 simultaneous video streams, and day-and-night camera
lens, the VPort 26A-1MP series is well-suited for outdoor video
surveillance applications.

To enhance video image quality, the VPort 26A-1MP series is equipped
with a 3 to 9 mm vari-focal megapixel lens that meets versatile viewing
angle and distance requirements. With the built-in removable IR-cut filter
(ICR), and automatic switching from color to B/W images, the VPort
26A-1MP series is suitable for day-and-night use. Along with the DNR
(Digital Noise Reduction) function, which greatly reduces video frame
noise, and WDR (Wide Dynamic Range), the VPort 26A-1MP series
provides clear images under back light circumstances.

With the following features, the VPort 26A-1MP series is specially
designed for outdoor applications: IP66 rain and dust protection, high
EMI/surge protection, -40 to 50°C or -40 to 75°C (for T models) operating
temperature without a fan or heater, metal housing, and vandal-proof
dome cover. In addition, the camera has a built-in dehumidifying
membrane for spreading out the moisture inside the camera. Users can
choose either the model with the PoE (Power over Ethernet, 802.3af)
function, or the wired power input model with 12/24 VDC or 24 VAC.

The VPort 26A-1MP series is designed to provide both H.264 and MJPEG
video streams and to transmit up to 3 independent video streams (2 in
H.264, and 1 in MJPEG) simultaneously. The camera can encode and
transmit up to 30 FPS for each of the H.264 and MJPEG streams. In
addition, Moxa’s DynaStream™ function changes the video frame rate
automatically to help you control your network bandwidth budget and
ease network system management. The CBR Pro™ function guarantees
no packet loss in limited bandwidth transmissions, ensuring that images
will not exhibit the mosaic effect. Advanced network security functions,
such as 802.1x and SSH, are also provided to prevent unauthorized
access or data hijacking, which is critical for most surveillance
applications.

Vari-focal Lens

The VPort 26A-1MP series comes with a day and night 3 to 9 mm
megapixel vari-focal lens for providing high quality video images. Users
can adjust the Zoom and Focus manually to get clear images regardless of
the site environment.

NOTE

To tune the focus position, loosen the screw, and then turn the
lens head.

Pan, Rotation, and Tilt Adjustment

Use the pan, rotation, and tilt fasteners for panning, rotating, and tilting
the lens angles. To do this, the screws must be loosened in advance. After
the lens angles are correct, tighten the screws to fix the angles.

Light Sensor

The VPort 26A-1MP includes a light sensor for detecting illumination,
which is for enabling the ICR (IR-cut filter removable) function. When the
illumination is under 3 lux, the image will be switched to night mode in
black and white, and when the illumination is greater than 5 lux, the
image will be switched back to day mode in color.

Ethernet, 802.3af)

Note: The 2

-pin terminal block shown here is for the

direct

-wired power input of the VPort 26A-1MP.

NOTE
