Chapter

The Nextiva V4320 IP cameras use the latest multi-shutter capture processing to provide a 96dB WDR performance. With its cutting-edge sensor processing and built-in IR illuminators (dome models only), the V4320 provides superior image clarity in the most challenging lighting conditions — bringing even total darkness into view up to 25 meters (75 feet) away. This WDR high-definition 1080p camera offers the latest H.264 compression and delivers high resolution images at optimal bandwidth profiles.

V4320FDW 5.6W 3.6W 3.2W 7W 19.4W

Grounding

For outdoor installation, it is important to ground the installation to protect the camera against electrical surges. The camera enclosure needs to be grounded by connecting earth ground to the G pin on the connector block.

If you are using the VPOE-2 housing, refer to the VPOE-2 Housing installation guide for grounding instruction. Otherwise, connect wire from the Earth GNDpin to the Earth ground connection to ensure the camera is properly grounded.

In order to prevent a ground loop:

Use a BNC ground loop isolator in case the BNC video out is used permanently.

For the FDand FDWmodels, do not connect Earth ground to the camera power connector.

Do not use shielded Ethernet cables. If using a shielded Ethernet cable, the shield should not be connected to the camera.

2. Plug the other end of the cable into a PoE switch or to the Data&PWR port of a PoE injector. If you use a PoE injector, make sure the Data port of the injector is properly connected to the Ethernet switch.

Note

Routing of the Ethernet cable from the camera to the power source must be done inside the building.

Powering with a 12VDC Power Supply

This product is intended for indoor use and should be supplied by a UL listed power supply.

IPCamera Model UL listed power supply required

V4320BX 12V DC 0.82A or 24V AC 0.41A

V4320FD 12VDC 2.1A or 24VAC 0.91A

V4320FDW 12VDC 2.1A or 24V AC 0.91A

► To power with a 12V DC power supply

1. Connect the power supply cable to the camera.

2. Plug an Ethernet cable into the RJ-45 connector on the back of the IP camera.

3. Plug the power supply cable to the power outlet.

Caution

In case of battery issues, contact Verint support and return the camera for a battery replacement. There is a risk of explosion if the battery is replaced with an incorrect type.

Adjusting the Zoom and Focus

Based on the live image retrieved from the IP camera, you can adjust the field of view and focus.

► To adjust the zoom and focus

1. Connect the Video Out to a CCTV test monitor.

2. While viewing the image, loosen the zoom and focus controllers.

3. Adjust the zoom factor and focus range.

Note

The lens setup will vary depending on the manufacturer.

4. Tighten the zoom and focus controller.

Chapter 1: Nextiva V4320Series Overview

Adjusting the Back Focus

Back Focus refers to the distance from the rear lens element to the camera focal plane. In most cases, it is required to adjust back focus only when the camera’s lens cannot hold focus throughout its zoom range.

► To adjust the back focus

1. Set the camera on a stable mount, with the test chart or object at least 75 feet (23 meters) away (or as far as possible).

2. Make sure the iris is wide open. Therefore, it is advised to keep the environment in low light condition.

3. Adjust the focus to infinite far (∞).

4. Turn the zoom to the extreme telephoto position, and then focus on the subject.

5. Set the zoom to wide-angle position.

6. Loosen the back focus ring’s retaining screw with the supplied adjuster, and adjust the back focus ring for sharp picture.

7. Repeat steps 3 ~ 6 until focus can stay the same throughout the zoom range.

8. Tighten the back focus ring’s retaining screw to fix the ring.

Chapter

Once you have connected the IP camera to the network, you can begin configuring the IP camera to ensure that it can communicate with the attached devices and with a video management software over the network.

The following topics are discussed:

IP Address Configuration 21

Setting a Static IPAddress 21

Accessing the IP Camera Home Page 23

Viewing Live Video 23

Setting Video Formats 25

Setting Video Compression 26

Setting Audio 28

IP Address Configuration

By default, all IPcameras are Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP ) enabled. If you have a DHCP server, the device will automatically obtain a valid IP configuration. If the DHCP configuration fails, the device assigns itself a temporary IP address based on the Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA ) addressing format.

Note

If you plan on using the IPcameras with the Nextiva video management software, you need to disable the DHCP setting and manually set an IP address for the device.

The APIPA scheme, available on the Windows operating systems, allows a device to assign itself a temporary IP address until it receives a complete network configuration, either manually or from a DHCP server.

A device in APIPA mode does not reside on the same subnet as the other devices on the IP network. Therefore, it may not be able to view or be visible by the other devices. All Nextiva edge devices use the following temporary APIPA configuration:

IP address: 169.254.X.Y (where X and Y are based on the last two octets of the MAC address of the device)

Subnet mask: 255.255.0.0

Gateway: 169.254.*.*

Setting a Static IPAddress

By default, all Verint devices are Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) enabled. If you have a DHCP server, the device will automatically obtain a valid IP configuration. If the DHCP configuration fails, the device assigns itself a temporary IP address based on the Automatic Private IP Addressing (APIPA ) addressing format.

Note

If you plan on using the device with the Nextiva video management software, you need to disable the DHCP setting and manually set an IP address for the device.

Chapter 2: Configuration

A device in APIPA mode does not reside on the same subnet as the other devices on the IP network. Therefore, it may not be able to view or be visible by the other devices. All Nextiva devices use the following temporary APIPA configuration:

IP address: 169.254.X.Y (where X and Y are based on the last two octets of the MAC address of the device)

Subnet mask: 255.255.0.0

Gateway: 169.254.*.*

► To set a static IPaddress

1. Launch the Verint Camera Configurator.

2. In the Discovery tab, click Device Search.

3. From the Discovery table, right-click a device and select Network Setup.

Tip

To set a static IPaddress for multiple devices, press the CTRL key and click each device.

4. From the Network Setup dialog, perform the following:

a. In the Starting box, type the IP address of the device.
