VIVOTEK
Overview
VIVOTEK SF8174/74V are the latest sheye xed dome network cameras featuring a detailed
5-Megapixel resolution sensor with superb image quality. Equipped with a sheye lens for 360°
surround view (ceiling/oor/table mount) without blind spots, the camera is able to provide coverage of wide, open areas, such as airports, shopping malls, parking lots, retail stores, ofces
and more.
As with all VIVOTEK true day/night cameras, the SF8174/74V feature removable IR-cut lters,
maintaining clear images 24 hours a day. SF8174V’s IP66-rated housing is designed to help the
camera body withstand rain and dust and ensures operation under a multitude of harsh weather
conditions; additionally, the vandal-proof IK10-rated housing effectively provides robust protection from physical damage. Together with 802.3af compliant PoE, MicroSD/SDHC/SDXC card
slot for on-board storage and EN50155 (SF8174V only), the SF8174/74V are indisputably the
top choice for constructing a robust surveillance system with the greatest coverage possible.
Moreover, SF8174/74V are compatible with the VIVOTEK Panoramic PTZ solution. Panoramic
PTZ is a groundbreaking new technology developed by VIVOTEK for monitoring open areas
with extreme detail. This feature is realized through the synergy of a VIVOTEK megapixel sheye camera with a speed dome camera, and allows users to simultaneously monitor an area
overview from a sheye model while providing the capability for a detailed regional view from a
speed dome. Suitable applications for Panoramic PTZ include department stores, station lobbies, airports, parking lots, and any wide open areas where comprehensive video surveillance
systems and the capability for extreme video detail are essential.
Revision History
Rev. 1.0: Initial release. These models are to be congured into a Panoramic PTZ conguration.
Rev. 1.1: Corrected the power and I/O cable as a separately-purchased item.

its intended use.
It is important to rst verify that all contents received are complete according to the Package Contents
listed below. Take note of the warnings in the Quick Installation Guide before the Network Camera is
installed; then carefully read and follow the instructions in the Installation chapter to avoid damage due to
faulty assembly and installation. This also ensures the product is used properly as intended.
The Network Camera is a network device and its use should be straightforward for those who have basic
networking knowledge. It is designed for various applications including video sharing, general security/
surveillance, etc. The Configuration chapter suggests ways to best utilize the Network Camera and
ensure proper operations. For creative and professional developers, the URL Commands of the Network
Camera section serves as a helpful reference to customizing existing homepages or integrating with the
current web server.

IMPORTANT: for both SF8174V and SF8174:
Refer to the "Panoramic PTZ Installation Guide" in your product CD for design considerations
before you proceed with physical installation.
The camera is intended to be installed with an SD series speed dome camera in a "Panoramic
PTZ" conguration. Users should take the following into account:
1. There is a dominant - subordinate relationship between the sheye camera and the speed
dome. All congurations are done on a PC running the Calibration tool and a web console
with the sheye camera. The computation required for exerting the Panoramic PTZ control
takes place on the sheye camera.

Auxiliary (subordinate)

2. In a panoramic PTZ conguration, the sheye camera provides an overview over the 360°
hemispheric eld of view; while the speed dome provides tracking, zooming, and keeping an
object in a view of an adequate size. The conguration is operated via the VAST or Milestone
software with easy clicks and drags.

Installation Concerns
Note the following when installing the sheye and speed dome cameras:
1. Mount the cameras closely together, no greater than 1 meter apart.
2. The cameras should be mounted at the height of 3 to 6 meters from the ground, and their
lens at approximately the same height.
3. A conguration thus congured can cover a surveillance area of a radius of 10 meters*.
4. Auto tracking, if applied, is designed to track an intruder in a place where human trafc is
not heavy, such as a warehouse or a load area. Heavy trafc can result in a constant shift of
tracked objects, and reduce the effectiveness of the feature.
* Note that the 10 meter radius only applies when using the Auto tracking feature. If using
manual control, the surveillance area can be much larger.

Network Deployment
Setting up the Network Camera over the Internet
There are several ways to set up the Network Camera over the Internet. The rst way is to set
up the Network Camera behind a router. The second way is to utilize a static IP. The third way is
to use PPPoE.
Internet connection via a router
Before enabling the access to 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 30 for
details.
IP address : 192.168.0.3
Subnet mask : 255.255.255.0

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.
■ Secondary HTTP port: 8080
■ RTSP port: 554
■ RTP port for audio: 5558
■ RTCP port for audio: 5559
■ RTP port for video: 5556
■ RTCP port for video: 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 78 for details.

... ... ...
Congure the router, virtual server or rewall, so that the router can forward any data coming
into a precongured 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.

When properly congured, 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 conguration page, please open the ports accordingly on your router. For example, you can open a management session with your router to
congure access through the router to the camera within your local network. Please consult your
network administrator for router conguration if you have troubles with the conguration.
For more information with network conguration options (such as that of streaming ports),
please refer to Conguration > Network Settings. VIVOTEK also provides the automatic port for-
warding feature as an NAT traversal function with the precondition that your router must support
the UPnP port forwarding feature.
