Network Connection
1. Operating Environment
Operating System: Windows 2000/2003/XP/Vista/7/8.1/10
Network Protocol: TCP/IP
Client PC: P4/128M RAM/40GHD/ support for scaled graphics card, support for DirectX8.0 or more advanced version.
2. Equipment Installation
1) Connect camera to your network via a CAT5 or CAT6 patch cable or directly to your PC via a CAT5 or CAT6 cross over
cable.
2) Turn on camera power.
3) If successful, the orange network light will illuminate and the green light will start flashing. If unsuccessful, the patch
cable is bad, you are using the wrong cable (patch aka “straight-thru” cable for connection through a LAN; crossover for a
direct PC connection) or you have connected to an inactive network jack.
3. Network Connection
Connection method between network camera and computer, as in pictures 1.1 and 1.2, below:
Picture 1.1 Direct connections via “cross-over” network cable
Picture 1.2 Connections to LAN via patch cable to LAN wall jack or LAN switch

Setting up a Network Video Stream with the PTZ Optics Camera
(Also see information on “Camera Web Interface” in the following section)
1. The first thing you are going to want to do to get your camera up and streaming on your network is to connect your
camera to power, to an active network port on your network and finally to power the camera on.
2. Next, go online and download the IP address setting tool, for Windows Operating Systems, from the PTZOptics
Download Page.
3. Once you complete the installation and launch the tool “UPGRADE v2.6C” you should be able to click the “Search”
button to locate all of the available PTZ Optics cameras on your network.
4. The next thing you would want to do is change your cameras IP address to be in the same range as your network.
The camera comes with a default static IP address of 192.168.100.88. You will need to update that to be in the same
range as your network. If you look at my example above, you can see, from other cameras on my network, that my
network is set up to be in the range of 192.168.111.XXX. Please see the “Extras” information at the end of this
section for further information on identifying your network IP scheme
5. Once you know your IP range you can right click on the camera you wish to change the IP address for and select
“config” to enter the appropriate network information. NOTE: if you need to find the IP range of your network, you
can do so by following the guide in the “Extras” information at the end of this section.
Page 36
Page 33 of 46
Rev 1.2 5/18
(Note that in more complex network environments you may have to request a “Static IP” from the IT department to prevent
any possible network complications in addition to the “Static IP” you will likely need an appropriate Network Mask, Default
Gateway and First DNS)
6. Now that you have set the Static IP address of your PTZ Optics camera, you should be able to pull up the video feed
in a web browser. We recommend using Mozilla Firefox ESR. You can view our knowledge base article for detailed
setup instructions.
7. If you follow the steps in the knowledge base article above and type in the Static IP address you assigned to your
camera, in step 4, you will be prompted for a Username and Password, by default both are “admin”.
8. You may be prompted to download the VLC Player Plugin; be sure to allow for both the Mozilla plugin and the
ActiveX plugin if on a PC. If you are on a MAC, you need to move the VLC plugin, once downloaded, into the
internet plugins folder. See the images below, or refer to our knowledge base article, for further clarification.
9. You should now be able to see the IP interface in the browser of your live camera feed. You should have full P/T/Z
control over your camera using the P/T/Z controls on the left side. You can adjust many of your cameras settings via
this IP interface.
The main thing to note about the IP interface is that all presets set in the IP interface will not be the same as the IR
remote presets and vice-versa.
Page 37
Page 34 of 46
Rev 1.2 5/18
10. You should now be able to receive an RTSP stream from your camera. The following video,
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmqI0hjT0UI&feature=youtu.be, shows how to setup an RTSP stream in
Wirecast as an example. You’ll see how to use ONVIF to easily set up two (2) PTZ Optics cameras with Wirecast,
note that the ONVIF feature must be enabled in the “Network” settings for ONVIF discovery to work properly.
11. You can test the RTSP stream in VLC media player. Once you install VLC and launch the program you should be
able to go to the “Media” drop down menu and then select “Open Network Stream”. In the network URL, you
should enter “rtsp://<camera-ip-address>:554/1”. In the example below, for a PTZ Optics camera with the static IP
address of 192.168.111.84, the RTSP stream would accessed by entering rtsp://192.168.111.84:554/1. The “554”
part is the port number used by the cameras, and the “1” is the stream number. (There are two RTSP network
streams available; one for HD content “1” and one for SD content “2”).

EXTRAS
Discovering your Network IP range. NOTE: Changing your IP address without talking to your network admin
could lead to conflicts with your network. If you change your address to one that is already in use it will cause
communication problems.
If you need to discover the IP address range of your network you can do so by using command prompt for
Windows or Terminal for Macs.
To do this on a PC, you would type “CMD” into your search bar in the Windows menu. You should see a
black box pop up with the ability to type in the box.
If you type “ipconfig” and hit “Enter” on your keyboard you will see a bunch of information pop up in your
command prompt.
When you see “IPV4 Address” that is your computers IP address on your current network. So you would use the first 3
sets of numbers from this as your IP range.
If you need to find the IP range of your MAC computer, you would first open a new finder window and then
go to Applications, and then Utilities. You should see the program “Terminal” in that menu, select that program.
Now, you would type in “IP config get if addr en0” Once you type this string and click “Enter” on your
keyboard you will receive back an IP address.
So the IP range of my network, according to my MAC is 192.168.111.xxx, you can use this to figure out the
IP range in which your camera needs to be set.

Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Camera Maintenance
⚫ If the camera will not be used for a long time, please turn off the power switch.
⚫ Use a soft cloth or lotion-free tissue to clean the camera body.
⚫ Use a soft dry lint-free cloth to clean the lens. If the camera is very dirty, clean it with a diluted neutral detergent.
Do not use any type of solvent or harsh detergent, which may damage the surface.
Unqualified Applications
⚫ Do not shoot extremely bright objects for a long period of time, such as sunlight, ultra-bright light sources, etc...
⚫ Do not operate in unstable lighting conditions, otherwise the image may flicker.
⚫ Do not operate close to powerful electromagnetic radiation, such as TV or radio transmitters, etc…
Troubleshooting
⚫ No image
1. Check whether the power cord is connected, voltage is OK, POWER lamp is lit.
2. Check whether the camera can “self-test” after startup (camera will do a brief pan-tilt tour and return to the
home position, or if preset 0 is set, the camera will return to the preset 0 position).
3. Check the BOTTOM dip switch and make sure the two dip switches are both set OFF. These switches are not
used in operating mode.
4. Check that the HDMI cable is connected correctly.
1. If HDMI, make sure that the destination device is accessing the HDMI port that you plugged into.
2. If SDI, make sure that the destination device is accessing the SDI port that you plugged into.
⚫ Abnormal display of image
1. Check setting of rotary dial on rear of camera. Be sure to use a resolution and refresh rate that is supported by
your software.
⚫ Image is shaky or vibrating.
1. Check whether camera is mounted solidly or sitting on a steady horizontal and level surface.
2. Check the building and any supporting furniture for vibration. Ceiling mounts are often affected by building
vibration more than wall mounts.
3. Any external vibration that is affecting the camera will be more apparent when in tele zoom (zoomed in)
settings.
Page 49

Rev 1.2 5/18
Control
⚫ IR remote controller does not control the camera
1. Does one of the 4 “Camera Select” buttons (top row of remote) light up when you press any button on the
remote?
If not, change the batteries in the remote.
2. Are the camera and remote set to the same IR address? You can use press [*] + [#] + [1] (3 buttons in
sequence) on the remote to set the camera to address 1. Press “Camera Select” 1 on the remote to control the
camera.
3. Try removing other sources of IR interference (e.g. sunlight, fluorescent lighting).
⚫ Serial communication does not control the camera
1. Make sure the camera is on and functioning with the IR remote control.
2. Verify that the RS232 cable is connected correctly and using the proper pinout.
3. Verify the communication settings of the control software or device (e.g. joystick).
4. Verify that the communication port on the controlling device is activated (e.g. Com port on PC).
5. Verify that all communication settings in the OSD Setup Menu correlate to the commands being used (e.g.
VISCA address).
