Scallop Imaging D7-180, D7-180XR Quick User Guide

Quick Start Guide

The D7-180 Quick Start Guide will show you how to connect to the camera and set the video frame format, position the zoom windows, and control the camera.

Software installation

It is necessary that you register your camera as soon as possible at scallopimaging.com/ Product Registration so you can download and install the D7-180 or D7-180XR Software Installation files.

It is critically important that you download and install the software before operating the camera. The camera will not operate without installing these files on your computer.

In order to get the camera operating on a network, software will need to be installed on a computer that meets the minimum system requirements.

Minimum System Requirements

Windows 7 or Windows 8

2.0 GHz CPU (Dual-core 1.8GHz or higher CPU with 2 GB RAM or higher recommended) 2 GB RAM or higher 200 MB hard drive space 512 MB or higher video memory Minimum display resolution: 10/100 Mb Ethernet adapter PoE Switch or 12V DC power supply (not included; 12V DC power supply available from Scallop Imaging) Internet Explorer or Mozilla Firefox

Connecting the camera

1280 x 720

The camera can be connected to a network by a CAT-5 Ethernet cable plugged into the rear of the camera. If the network supports PoE (Power over Ethernet), power is supplied directly via the Ethernet cable. The camera can also be powered by a 12 volt power supply (available from Scallop Imaging) if the network does not support PoE.

Accessing the Camera

Scallop Imaging IP cameras are IPV4LL compliant. If you have a DHCP server on your network, the DHCP server “router” will assign the camera an IP address automatically. If a DHCP server “router” is not on the network, the camera will be assigned a 169.254.x.x address. If you are setting up the camera without a DHCP server “router” you will need to set your computer to obtain an IP address.

Examples Established network with DHCP

Set computer to obtain an IP address automatically. Connect and power all devices.

Cameras will show in camera finder with an address assigned by the router.

Laptop, Hub, or PoE switch

Set the laptop to automatically obtain an IP address. Connect and power all devices. Cameras will show in camera finder with individual 169.254.x.x addresses. Once you access the camera, you can change its mode from DHCP to Static.

Also provided is a “Bonjour for Windows” discovery utility

Specifications subject to change without notice. US patent No. 7,262,789 and additional US and international patents.

Bonjour, a third-party program, has been provided for easy access to the camera. To use it, simply start the application and a window (left) will appear.

Click on Web Server (HTTP) on the left column and devices with the Bonjour naming protocol will be shown on the right hand column. Each D7-180 camera will be named “D7180_cam_****”, and each D7-180XR will be named “D7XR_CAM_****.” The **** will be the last 4 digits of the MAC address of the camera. The MAC address can be found printed on

the label on the back of each camera. Note: The Bonjour networking protocol sends and receives network packets on UDP port 5353. The

Bonjour installer will configure the Windows firewall appropriately during installation on supported systems, but if you have a separate "personal firewall" enabled, you will need to ensure that UDP port 5353 is open for Bonjour to work correctly. The Bonjour discovery utility is subject to change.

Once you have found the camera in the Bonjour program simply click on its name and your default browser will open the camera's built-in web interface.

The first window that will appear will be the login screen. You can log on to the camera using the default username and password. The default user name is: admin The default password is: password

Live Feed Screen

After logging in, you will be brought to the D7-180/D7180XR browser site. By default, the “Live Feed” tab will be activated. At the bottom of the page you will find options to configure the zoom windows. You can choose 0, 2, 3 or 4 zoom windows to appear on the screen at once.

To choose the number of zoom windows you would like to appear on the screen click on the icons at the bottom of the screen (see red rectangle on left). Once chosen, the video will change to the zoom window configuration you have selected.

Positioning the zoom windows

Click on the zoom window in the bottom half of the live feed window that you wish to reposition. Once you have clicked in the desired zoom window a yellow box will appear in the Situational Awareness Window (180 degree view) where the current position of the zoom window is located.

Once the yellow box appears, you can drag the box to reposition it by holding down the mouse button and dragging and dropping the box to the position you want the zoom window to be positioned. Once you release the mouse button, the zoom window will reposition to that location. Do this for each zoom window to obtain views of the area of interest. You can change the positions of the zoom window anywhere within the 180 degree field of view.
