User Manual

Thank you for purchasing i3 International’s M75 Edge Ai dome camera.
M75 is equipped with a motorized 2.8-12mm @ F1.6 lens.
This camera is compatible with the optional back box (Part#: B85).

To switch between h.264 and h.265 compressions in the camera’s web settings, go to > Remote Settings > Record > Encode > Video Code Type.

SAFETY

When installing your M75 camera be sure to avoid:

• excessive heat, such as direct sunlight or heating appliances
• contaminants such as dust and smoke
• strong magnetic fields
• areas with mechanical vibrations
• fluorescent lamps or objects that reflect light and unstable light sources
• temperatures below -35° C (-31° F) and above 50° C (122° F).

To avoid electrical shock and to preserve the product warranty, DO NOT disassemble the camera. Refer servicing to qualified personnel only.
POWER SUPPLY
This camera accepts PoE power.
Ensure the supplied voltage meets the power consumption requirements of this camera (9W) before powering the camera on. Incorrect voltage may cause irreparable damage to the video camera and will effectively void the camera warranty.

CLEANING

• For maximum optical clarity, the camera dome or lens must remain clean. Use a soft, dry cloth to remove finger prints or dust from the dome cover.
• Use a blower to remove dust from the lens.
• Do not use volatile solvents such as alcohol, benzene, or thinners, as they may damage the surface finishes.

SURFACE INSTALLATION

Start by preparing the mounting surface. Based on installation location and surface type, supplied screws and anchors may not be adequate. Use the (optional) B85 back box for pendant or horizontal wall-mounting and use a 3/4” NPT pipe or DB60, respectively. Surface installation can be completed without a back box.
Note: After installation, camera must be accessible from the local network (LAN).
To complete a surface mount installation:

1. Use the provided hex bit to loosen three screws securing the dome bubble to camera housing and take the dome bubble off.
2. To aid in the installation, install the anti-drop string as shown in the diagram to attach the dome bubble to the camera (Figure 5).
3. Attach the supplied mounting template to the mounting surface.
4. Drill 4 holes, as marked on the template, insert supplied anchors into the holes.
5. Drill the conduit hole for the camera cable, if routing the cable upwards. If routing the cable sideways do not drill the conduit hole.
6. Feed the camera cable either through the cut conduit hole or through the side cable opening.
7. Use the round head machine screws to secure the camera base to the prepared surface. (Figure 6)
8. Adjust the lens assembly for the desired view and re-attach the dome bubble.
9. Use the security Torx bit or screwdriver (not provided) to re-tighten three screws securing the dome bubble to the camera (Figure 7).

CHANGING COMPRESSION

M75 supports h.264 and h.265 video compressions.
Note: CMS Video Streaming currently requires h.264 compression.

4. Repeat Steps 2 and 3 in the SubStream tab.

BUILT-IN LED LIGHT

The intelligent white light allows M75 to function as a flood light when human presence is detected by the camera. This practical feature cuts down on installation and energy costs and vastly improves the quality and usability of the nighttime video footage. The camera’s built-in “edge” analytics function triggers the built-in white light in response to the human (pedestrian) and/or vehicle presence according to the configured schedule.
The sudden activation of the built-in white light causes the subjects to look directly at the light source, ensuring a high-quality face shot every time.
LED LIGHT SCHEDULE
Built-in LED light is pre-configured to turn on between 6PM and 7AM in response to human (pedestrian) presence. The schedule can be modified according to the lighting conditions at the installation site.
To extend the lifespan of your camera’s LED light, restrict the LED active time schedule to the evening and night-time hours, when the natural ambient light is low or absent.
To modify LED activation schedule, log into the camera’s Web GUI.

1. In Remote Setting tab, go to Ai > Alarm
2. In the PD&VD (Pedestrian Detection & Vehicle Detection) tab, ensure that the Light toggle is ON
3. Click Schedule.
4. Click Light.
5. Modify schedule as needed. Use the mouse cursor to highlight blocks on the timeline.
6. Click OK to save changes.
7.  Synchronize camera’s system time with the computer time.
   See the last section for instructions.

ENABLE LED FOR VEHICLE DETECTION

By default, M75 triggers the built-in LED light in response to human (pedestrian) presence. It can also be manually enabled to turn on in response to a motor vehicles and/or non-motorized vehicles.
To enable LED alarm for motor vehicles or non-motorized vehicles, log into the camera’s Web GUI.

1. In Remote Setting tab, go to Ai > Setup

2. In the PD&VD (Pedestrian Detection & Vehicle Detection) tab, ensure that Enable toggle is ON.

3. Modify the Detection Type selections as needed. Pedestrian is selected by default.
   Select Motor Vehicle and/or Non-motorized Vehicle to activate the camera’s built-in LED light in response to those objects.

4. Click Save

SYNCHRONIZE COMPUTER TIME

To ensure that the LED activation follows the set schedule, synchronize the camera’s system time with the NVR system time. Make sure that the NVR time zone is correctly set before completing this step.

1. In Remote Setting tab, go to System > General
2. In the Date and Time tab, click Synchronize computer time.
3. Click Save
4. Click OK in the Notice pop-up window.
