1．Electrical safety

All installation and operation here should conform to your local electrical safety codes.
The power shall conform to the requirement in the SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage) and the Limited
power source is rated 12V DC or 24V AC in the IEC60950-1.
We assume no liability or responsibility for all the fires or electrical shock caused by improper handling
or installation.

2．Transportation security

Heavy stress, violent vibration or water splash are not allowed during transportation, storage and
installation.

3．Installation

Do not apply power to the camera before completing installation.
Please install the proper power cut-off device during the installation connection.
Always follow the instruction guide the manufacturer recommended.
If this product is installed in the ceiling, please make sure the installation position can sustain the min
50N.

4．Qualified engineers needed

All the examination and repair work should be done by the qualified service engineers.
We are not liable for any problems caused by unauthorized modifications or attempted repair.

5．Environment

This series analog camera should be installed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight or strong
light, inflammable, explosive substances and etc.

The working temperature ranges from -10℃ to +60℃. Please keep it away from the electromagnetic
radiation object and environment.

Please make sure the CCD component is out of the radiation of the laser beam device. Otherwise it
may result in CCD optical component damage.
Please keep the sound ventilation.
Do not allow the water and other liquid falling into the camera.

6. Accessories

Be sure to use all the accessories recommended by manufacturer.
Before installation, please open the package and check all the components are included.
Contact your local retailer ASAP if something is broken in your package.

7. Daily Maintenance

Please shut down the device and then unplug the power cable before you begin daily maintenance
work.
Do not touch the CCD optic component. You can use the blower to clean the dust on the lens surface.
Always use the dry soft cloth to clean the device. If there is too much dust, please use the water to
dilute the mild detergent first and then use it to clean the device. Finally use the dry cloth to clean the
device.
Please put the dustproof cap to protec t the CCD component when you do not use the camera.

1.2 Functions

Motion detect

An alarm can be generated once the re is moving object in the surveillance area. You can select
the various sensitivity levels according to your actual requirements.

Privacy mask

Support privacy mask area setup. Privacy masking area is a user-defined, four-sided area that
can not be viewed by you during the surveillance to protect the privacy information (such as the
keyboard zone of the ATM).

Day/night mode switch (Color and black/white switch)

This function allows the camera to display the colo r vide o in the day while the black and white
video at the night. It is to enhance camera sensitivity and defi niti o n.

3

Auto gain function

To output the standard video signal in the diff er e nt il lumination environments, the amplifier needs
to adjust in a wide range. The system can enhance the camera sensitivity in low illumination and
enhance the video signal output to get the clear and high definition video.

SNR

It is the ratio value between the signal voltage and the noise voltage. The higher the SNR value,
the lower the adverse effect. It is to guarantee the clear video.

OSD

User-friendly on-screen display for you to select the different functions.

INT and LL

There are two synchronization modes: INT/LL. INT is to use the oscillator of the camera to
generate the synchronization signal to complete the scan and synchronization. The LL is to
provide the AC current to the camera to realize the scan and synchronization.

White Balance

The white balance refers to the camera to restore the white object color. It allows th e camera to
adjust the color temperature in indoor and outdoor environment, just like our human eyes does.

ICR

The IR cut removal is to filter the IR light in the daytime and then auto switch to the general fitter
at night. This function allows the camera to output the high sensitivity and clear video.

Auto exposure

System can automatically set shutter speed and iris value according to the snapshot video
exposure condition.

Low illumination

The system can output the proper video even in dark environment.

4

BLC

Once there is strong light at the back of the object, the main object video may become dark.
Backlight compensation technology is to automatically compensate the light to get vivid video.
You can refer to the following two figures to see the result of the backlight compensation
technology function.

Before After

WDR

When there is strong light, shadow and backlight all in one surveillance environment, the camera
output video may become white owning to the extra exposure while some sections become black
owning to the insufficient exposure. All of these will adversely affect the video quality. WDR is to
balance the light between these two sections .
You can compare the follow figure with the above figure on the left.

ATR and ATR-EX

ATR (Adaptive Tone-curve Reproduction) function allows the camera to digitally calculate the
video color again and then adjust the bright n ess to enhance the video quality. This function can
effectively enhance the color and black zone of the video when there is sharp light contrast in the
environments.

5

HLC

HLC (High Light Compensation) function can effectively remove the risk of over exposure and
guarantee the proper monitor video when there are strong lights.

De-noise (Noise reduction)

There may be too much noise when you are monitor in the low illumination environments. You
can digitally calculate to reduce the noise to get the clear video.

Digital image stabilization

When the installation position is of much vibration, you can enable this function to guarantee
clear and stable video.

Digital zoom

This function can allow you to clearly monitor the remote object. The camera can zoom in the
remote object and then output.
