WARRANTY STATEMENT

For information about Pelco’s product warranty and thereto related information, refer to www.pelco.com/warranty.

VIDEO QUALITY CAUTION

Frame Rate Notice Regarding User-Selected Options

Pelco systems are capable of providing high quality video for both live viewing and playback. However, the systems can be used in lower quality
modes, which can degrade picture quality, to allow for a slower rate of data transfer and to reduce the amount of video data stored. The picture
quality can be degraded by either lowering the resolution, reducing the picture rate, or both. A picture degraded by having a reduced resolution
may result in an image that is less clear or even indiscernible. A picture degraded by reducing the picture rate has fewer frames per second,
which can result in images that appear to jump or move more quickly than normal during playback. Lower frame rates may result in a key event
not being recorded by the system.

Judgment as to the suitability of the products for users’ purposes is solely the users’ responsibility. Users shall determine the suitability of the
products for their own intended application, picture rate and picture quality. In the event users intend to use the video for evidentiary purposes in
a judicial proceeding or otherwise, users should consult with their attorney regarding any particular requirements for such use.

Description

The Spectra Enhanced Series 7 high speed IP PTZ dome cameras provide top tier image quality, performance, and intelligent embedded features
for state-of-the-art surveillance solutions. There are several different form factors including in-ceiling and pendant domes with different
configurations (e.g. indoor, environmental). All environmental models feature a robust design with aluminum construction and an IK10 rated
housing and polycarbonate bubble. The environmental models feature worry-free use in harsh environments with IP66, IP67, and Type 4X ratings,
and a wide range of operating temperatures.

The Spectra Enhanced Series 7 dome camera is easy to install, offers flexible mounting options, and uses a standard Web browser for easy
remote setup and administration.

The Spectra Enhanced Series 7 dome camera easily connects to Pelco IP and hybrid systems such as VideoXpert and Digital Sentry version 7.3 (or
later). The camera also conforms with ONVIF Profile S, Profile G, Profile Q, and Profile T for connection with third-party software. Pelco offers an
Application Programming Interface (API) and Software Developer’s Kit (SDK) for interfacing with Pelco’s IP cameras.

This document describes the installation and initial setup procedures to begin operating the camera. For more information about operating your
camera, refer to the operation manual specific to the product.

NOTE: For additional information about Spectra Enhanced Series 7 dome product documentation in English and other languages, go to
www.pelco.com and navigate to the Spectra Enhanced Series 7 website.

GETTING STARTED

Ethernet Wiring Requirement for POE 802.3bt

Connect a CAT5e or higher cable or higher cable (not supplied) to the RJ-45 network connector. the 8-pin port includes video over Ethernet, and
PoE 802.3bt for the camera. PoE 802.3bt injects power over the same cabling that carries the network data, eliminating the need for a separate
power supply. This simplifies the installation and operation of the camera without affecting network performance.

Accessing the Camera

NOTE: For security purposes, it is required that you create a user account when you access the camera for the first time.

• In its out-of-the-box configuration, the camera has no user name and password assigned. In this state the camera does not allow for video
to stream or configurations to change. It is required that you set an administrative user name and password at this time. Creation of an
administrative user changes the state of the camera to its “operational mode,” where credentials must be provided in order to view live
video or change its configuration. This first user configuration can also be done in VxToolbox software.

• There is no provision for recovering a forgotten administrator user name or password. The camera can be restored to its out-of-the-box, no
user name and password configuration by powering down, depressing the Factory Defaults button, and holding the button down for at least
four seconds while power the camera back up.

• If a user name and password exist, a Login page is presented when the camera is accessed.

The recommended browsers for your camera are the latest version of Internet Explorer®, Microsoft™ Edge™, Google Chrome™ browser, or
Mozilla® Firefox®. For supported browser versions, refer to the specification sheet.

1. Open a web browser.

2. Type the camera’s IP address (192.168.0.20) or host name in your browser’s address bar, and the press Enter.

NOTE: You can obtain your camera’s IP address or access the camera using the Pelco Device Utility or VxToolbox software. If DHCP is enabled
but a DHCP server is not on the network, the camera automatically assigns itself both an IPv4 link local address (169.254.x.x, where the lower
two octets are random) and a 192.168.0.20 address. Additional cameras will assign themselves different IPv4 link local addresses and the next
available 192.168.0xIP addresses in sequential order. For example, if three cameras are connected to a network without a DHCP server, the first
camera to connect assigns itself the IP address 192.168.0.20, the second camera assigns itself 192.168.0.21, and the third camera assigns itself

192.168.0.22.

3. Enter credentials for the camera.

4. Click Log In.
