Introduction 1

Introduction 1

The Paradox HD77 is an HD video & audio camera with superior PIR detector. HD77 is a high-performance HD
720p color camera, and a microphone with an integrated PIR detector. It offers superior motion detection with
video verification, for areas up to 12m x 12m (40ft x 40ft).
The HD77 enables streaming Video On Demand (VOD) and Record On Demand (ROD) functionality using the
Insight Application. Video and JPEG outputs can be sent to the IPRS-7 monitoring software and to the user's
email to help determine the cause of an alarm, and apply an appropriate response to the situation.
The HD77 provides 24/7 continuous monitoring of your property. The high definition digital video camera
transmits a color signal at 360p resolution during normal light conditions. During periods of low light the HD77
supplies IR illumination that supports the HD77 camera down to zero lumens of light with black and white
signal transmission.
The high quality microphone supplements the video with superior quality audio.
The system’s master user can ensure privacy by setting viewing rights by user. This can be done through the
Paradox Insight app. The HD77 also increases privacy and security by storing video recordings within the
module. This way any recordings are more secure than video files stored on a pubic or private server. The
module only records upon a detection event or when Record On Demand is enabled.
The HD77 is user-centered and respects user privacy. There are 2 levels of authorization. The lower level
authorized users receive 15 minutes of viewing after an alarm. The higher level authorized users have unlimited
viewing and authorization to Record On Demand.
Recording only takes place when an alarm is triggered, or when an authorized user implements Record On
Demand. Each time ROD is enabled the recording is limited to 5 minutes. Images sent to the CMS include only
those from actual alarm events, as defined during installation. Recordings of events remain in control of the
user and are stored within the HD77 device. The master user can download the recordings at his convenience
and to his preferred files location.

Hardware Installation 2

Hardware Installation 2

This section explains the hardware requirements and mounting instructions.

2.1 Requirements

Before you start the installation make sure you have all of the required infrastructure, tools and software.

2.1.1 Hardware

Note: A singleCAT5 or higher cable can be used to wire a single HD77 camera. This cable includes 2 twisted

pairs for the 4-wire combus and 2 twisted pairs for the Ethernet lines. When using this option the cable
length is limited to 50 meters. When using this option the cable length is limited to 50 meters.

Note: An alternate wiring scheme is to wire the HD77 with two separate cables. 1 Ethernet cable and 1– 4-

wire combus.

In order to take full advantage of all that the Insight Solution has to offer ensure that the mounting location has
the following infrastructure:

• 4-wire combus cable that connects to the EVOHD

• Ethernet line that connects to a router or Ethernet switch

• a router with enough ports to connect all of the cameras (1 port for each camera) plus 1 port if you are
using an IP150, 1 port for your computer, and 1port for the incoming internet connection

If the router does not have enough ports you will also need a switch.

The router will need to be configured for port forwarding for the HD77. Each HD77 in the system will
have a different IP address and each one will need port forwarding to two ports of its IP address. One
from the external IP address:port (any port above port #1024) to the internal <IP address>:80 and
one for <IP address>:443.

The installer will also need to have the following job specific tools and equipment:

• a laptop with Windows 7

• a connection from your laptop to the system either by:

• 307USB cable
OR

• IP150 Internet module to connect to the EVOHD serial port

Figure 3 – Recommended wiring for using the oneCAT5 or higher cable

HD77 Installation Guide 7

Figure 4 – HD77 Hardware Connections

2.1.2 Software

The installer will also need to have the following software available on his laptop.

• BabyWare Installer software V 2.5 or higher (downloadable from paradox.com)

• Paradox IP Exploring Tool V1.66 or higher (downloadable from paradox.com)

2.2 Location and Mounting

Follow the recommendations and cautions in order to get the most out of your system.

2.2.1 Recommendations

• Install the device at a height between 2.1m to 2.7m (7ft to 9ft), allowing a minimum gap of 2cm (~1 in)
from the ceiling (to allow for opening/closing of the cover).

8 HD77 Installation Guide

Figure 5 – Mounting Guidelines

• Install the device in a location where the detector and camera’s field of view is clear of any obstacles.

• For LAN connection, use a CAT5e/CAT6 Ethernet cable (70m Max.) between the HD77 and the router.

• Mount the module so that walking traffic cuts across the beam pattern.

2.2.2 Cautions

• Do not install the device near objects causing temperature changes such as heaters, refrigerators and
ovens.

• Do not install the device in the path of air flow from vents, fans or windows.

• Do not install the device in the path of reflective surfaces, direct sunlight or infrared light.

• Do not install the device where it is exposed to oil vapors or steam.

• Do not touch the sensor surface or the camera lens as this could result in a detector malfunction.

2.3 HD77 Installation (Wall or Corner Mount)

1. Separate the front from the back plate of the HD77:

Step 1. Open the lock mechanism at the bottom of the device.

Step 2. Pry the cover off from the bottom of the unit.

Step 3. Lift the front cover up and away. On the back of this module you will see the serial number.

Step 4. Knock out the appropriate holes on the back plate. Use an awl or an ice pick.

Step 5. Write the serial number of the module into your module table. Include the exact location of this

module. If you are using BabyWare the serial number will be displayed, but you will need to
write down the correct location for each module serial number.

2. Ensure to include the wall tamper knockout for the installation.

3. Secure the back plate to the wall at the location:

Step 1. Install the device a minimum of 2cm (~1 in) from the ceiling, between 2.1m and 2.7m off the

floor.

Step 2. Insert the Ethernet and 4-wire combus cables through the wiring slot of the back plate.

Step 3. Secure the back plate to the wall with screws. (use wall anchors if required).

Step 4. Ensure that the wall tamper knockout is secured to the wall.

Step 5. Wire up both the 4-wire combus and the Ethernet cable.

Step 6. Connect the wires to the terminal board as seen in Figure 8 on page 11 and Figure 7 on page 11.

Note: A singleCAT5 or higher cable can be used to wire a single HD77 camera. This cable includes 2 twisted

pairs for the 4-wire combus and 2 twisted pairs for the Ethernet lines. When using this option the cable
length is limited to 50 meters. When using this option the cable length is limited to 50 meters.
