Install the IR illuminator next to your network camera, e.g., IP8352. Orient its shooting
angle by adjusting the ball swivel screw. Secure the illuminator by fastening screws
through the holes on the base of the equipment stand.
If you drilled a hole on the wall, you can pass power and control lines through the hollow of
the equipment stand and then through the hole
Wiring

1. Open the rear cover using a athead screwdriver (taking the IP8352 as an example).
2. Replace the seal plug on the rear cover with parts A & B from the waterproof connector.
3. Pass digital IO lines through F > E > C > A+B. Insert D into unused holes on C.
4. Connect DO lines to the GPIO terminal block (shown above). Secure the sealing nut (F)
by tightening to the rear cover.
5. Close the rear cover.
6. Pass IO lines through the mounting bracket.

NOTE:
previously congured in the Event conguration will be erased.
Since only one pair of digital output lines are available, once the IR illuminator is enabled,
the other Digital output options will be disabled.
If the external IR illuminator setting is enabled, all DO-related settings you
