VIVOTEK

Overview

VIVOTEK FD8355HV/55EHV are professional outdoor network dome cameras offering up to 60 fps @

1.3-Megapixel resolution with superb image quality.

The FD8365HV/65EHV provides 60 fps @ 2-Megapixel resolution with superb image quality.

Featuring the new improved Wide Dynamic Range Technology WDR Pro II, it provides extreme visibility in extremely dark & light environments with 4 shutter capture methods. Combined with 3D Noise Reduction Technology, which enables the camera to capture clear, polished video under low-light conditions and reduce bandwidth from sensor noise, users can identify an increased level of image detail in extremely bright as well as dark environments.

Additionally, as a professional day/night camera, the camera adopts Smart IR technology which prevents overexposure and provides noise reduction to adjust IR lighting intensity instantaneously based on changes in lighting in the ambient environment.

To provide top-notch image quality, the camera also comes with a P-iris lens, which controls the iris with extreme precision with its built-in stepper motor. By using software controls, the lens maintains the

iris opening at an optimal level at all times, resulting in superior sharpness and depth of eld as well as

image quality. Furthermore, for installers, properly adjusting the focus of a megapixel network camera

can be difcult due to the level of image detail. Thus, the camera is also designed with VIVOTEK’s Smart

Focus System to make installation and adjustment easier by using remote focus and zoom adjustment.

The camera’s IP66-rated housing is designed to help the camera body withstand rain and dust and high

pressure water jets from any direction while the IK10 vandalproof rating provides protection against

the vandalism and impact. Additionally, the wide temperature range further enhances the camera’s

performance and reliability in extremely cold and hot weather.

General I/O Terminal Block

This Network Camera provides a general I/O terminal block which is used to connect external

input / output devices. The pin denitions are described below. The 24V AC can be used as an

alternate power source.

NOTE:

The max. load for power output pin 8, 12V DO, is 50mA.

DI/DO Diagram

1. The DO+ pin provides a 12V output, and the max. load is 50mA.

2. The max. voltage for DO- pins is 80VDC (External power). In order to control AC devices, the following diagram can be taken into consideration. This

diagram uses a relay to control the ON/OFF condition of the AC device.

3. An external relay can be triggered by using the DO+ or by an external power source, depending on the type of relay you use.

4. In case of using an individual relay (instead of using a relay module), for protection against voltage or current spikes, a transient voltage suppression diode must be connected in parallel with the inductive load.

Internet connection via a router

Before setting up the Network Camera over the Internet, make sure you have a router and follow the steps below.

1. Connect your Network Camera behind a router, the Internet environment is illustrated below. Regarding how to obtain your IP address, please refer to Software Installation on page 18 for details.

IP address : 192.168.0.3 Subnet mask : 255.255.255.0 Default router : 192.168.0.1

2. In this case, if the Local Area Network (LAN) IP address of your Network Camera is

192.168.0.3, please forward the following ports for the Network Camera on the router.

■ HTTP port: default is 80

■ RTSP port: default is 554

■ RTP port for audio: default is 5558

■ RTCP port for audio: default is 5559

■ RTP port for video: default is 5556

■ RTCP port for video: default is 5557

If you have changed the port numbers on the Network page, please open the ports accordingly on your router. For information on how to forward ports on the router, please refer

to your router’s user’s manual.

3. Find out the public IP address of your router provided by your ISP (Internet Service Provider).

Use the public IP and the secondary HTTP port to access the Network Camera from the Internet. Please refer to Network Type on page 64 for details.

For example, your router and IP settings may look like this:

Device IP Address: internal

port

IP Address: External Port (Mapped port on the

router) Public IP of router 122.146.57.120 LAN IP of router 192.168.2.1 Camera 1 192.168.2.10:80 122.146.57.120:8000 Camera 2 192.168.2.11:80 122.146.57.120:8001

VIVOTEK

Congure the router, virtual server or rewall, so that the router can forward any data coming into a precongured port number to a network camera on the private network, and

allow data from the camera to be transmitted to the outside of the network over the same path.

From Forward to

... ...

When properly congured, you can access a camera behind the router using the HTTP request as follows: http://122.146.57.120:8000

If you change the port numbers on the Network conguration page, please open the ports

accordingly on your router. For example, you can open a management session with your

router to congure access through the router to the camera within your local network. Please consult your network administrator for router conguration if you have troubles with the conguration.

For more information with network conguration options (such as that of streaming ports), please refer to Conguration > Network Settings. VIVOTEK also provides the automatic

port forwarding feature as an NAT traversal function with the precondition that your router must support the UPnP port forwarding feature.

Internet connection with static IP

Choose this connection type if you are required to use a static IP for the Network Camera.

Please refer to LAN setting on page 64 for details.

Internet connection via PPPoE (Point-to-Point over Ethernet)

Choose this connection type if you are connected to the Internet via a DSL Line. Please refer to PPPoE on page 65 for details.

NOTE:

1. For a megapixel camera, it is recommended to use monitors of the 24" size or larger,

and are capable of 1600x1200 or better resolutions.

2. Below are the defaults for Audio settings:

For cameras with built-in microphone: Not Muted. For cameras without built-in microphone: Muted.

To receive audio input from external microphone, you may need to enable the audio

input from Media > Audio. Refer to page 63 for more information.

Tips:
