Installation

Camera Package Contents

• Pelco Sarix Thermal Enhanced 4 Camera
• Junction box
•  Mounting template sticker
• 4 screws and anchors for solid walls
• 4 screws for attachment to electrical box
•  Protective rubber boot for Ethernet port
• Teflon tape

Installation Steps

Mounting the Bullet Camera
If the cables for the camera will not be provided from inside the mounting surface, install the junction box first.  After you install the junction box, you can skip directly to step 3 of this procedure.

1. Use the mounting template to drill four mounting holes into the mounting surface.

2. Drill the cable entry hole into the mounting surface then pull the required Ethernet cable through the cable entry hole.

3. Fasten the junction box to the mounting surface.    To prevent moisture from entering the junction box, it is recommended to apply teflon tape around  the threaded conduit pipe at the cable entry point of the junction box. Ensure the other two conduit  plugs are fully tightened.

4. Insert the mounting hooks on the rear of the camera into the mounting hook slots on the junction  box, then let the camera hang.  Before connecting any cables, ensure that the cable connections are properly protected from  moisture and corrosion. Make sure the protective cable boot is installed over the Ethernet port to  protect the connection from dust and moisture.
   If PoE is not available, the camera may be powered through the auxiliary power cable using either  12 VDC or 24 VAC. For more information, see Connecting to Power and External Devices.

5.  If there are external input or output devices that need to be connected to the camera (for example:
   door contacts, relays, etc.), connect the devices to the camera’s digital I/O connector cables. For  more information see Connecting to Power and External Devices.
   It is recommended that seal tape be applied around the external audio and I/O connection, if  necessary, to prevent moisture from entering.

6. Install the protective cable boot.       a.  Thread one end of the Ethernet cable through the provided protective cable boot.
   Ensure the orientation of the cable and boot matches the one shown in the image.
   b.  Crimp the Ethernet cable onto the cord.
   c.  Plug the Ethernet cable into the camera’s Ethernet port.
   d.  After you connect the cable to the camera, slide the boot over the Ethernet port.

7. Connect the network cable to the camera’s Ethernet port.   

8. Tuck the extra lengths of cables into the cable entry hole or within the junction box compartment.

9. Raise the camera until it covers the junction box.   

10. Use the camera mounting screws to fasten the camera to the junction box.   

Removing the Configuration Panel Cover

1. Use a T20 Pin-In star-shaped driver to unscrew the configuration panel cover.    
2. Remove the cover from the configuration panel.

Initializing a Camera Username and Password
You must create a user with administrator privileges before the camera is operational.
The new user can be created using the following methods:

• Camera’s web interface. Enter the camera’s IP address in a web browser to access the web  interface. For more information, see the Pelco Sarix Thermal Enhanced 4 Camera Operations   nual. If the camera is in the factory default state, you will be redirected to the New User page to  create an administrator user:
  1.  Enter a new User Name or keep the default administrator name.
  2.  Enter a new Password for the user. It is recommended to use a secure and complex  password.
  3.  Confirm the new password.
  4.  For the first user, Administrator must be selected in the Security Group drop-down menu.
  5.  Click Apply. After creating the user, you will be asked to login.

• Camera Configuration Tool: discovered cameras that are identified by ****will require a first user to  be set. Select the Admin Users tab to create the first user. For more information, see the Camera Configuration Tool User Guide.

Note : Set up the first user through the camera’s Web Interface or Camera Configuration Tool before you connect the camera to a VMS.
(Optional) Using the USB Wi-Fi Adapter
If you have a USB Wi-Fi Adapter (USB-AC56-**-MSI), attach it to the camera’s micro USB port to access  the camera’s mobile web interface. After you connect to the Wi-Fi signal broadcast by the adapter, you can access the mobile web interface  from any mobile device using the following address: http://camera.lan
For more information about configuring the camera from the mobile web interface see Pelco USB Wi-Fi Adapter System User Guide.

The camera will reserve the 10.11.22.32/28 subnet for internal use while the USB Wi-Fi Adapter is  plugged in.
Assigning an IP Address
The device automatically obtains an IP address when it is connected to a network.
If the device cannot obtain an IP address from a DHCP server, it will use Zero Configuration Networking  (Zeroconf) to choose an IP address. When set using Zeroconf, the IP address is in the 169.254.0.0/16  subnet.
The IP address settings can be changed using one of the following methods:

• The mobile web interface using the USB Wifi Adapter. For more information, see (Optional) Using the USB Wi-Fi Adapter.
• Device’s web browser interface: http://cameraIP.address/.
• Network Video Management software application.
• ARP/Ping method. For more information, see Setting the IP Address Using the ARP/Ping Method.

Setting the IP Address Using the ARP/Ping Method
Complete the following steps to configure the camera to use a specific IP address:
Note: The ARP/Ping Method will not work if the Disable setting static IP address through ARP/Ping method checkbox is selected in the camera’s web browser interface. For more  information, see the Pelco Sarix Thermal Enhanced 4 Camera Operations Manual.

1. Locate and make note of the MAC Address (MAC) listed on the Serial Number Tag for reference.

2.  Open a Command Prompt window and enter the following commands:
   a.  arp -s For example: arp -s 192.168.1.10 00-18-85-12-45-78
   b.  ping -l 123 -t For example: ping -l 123 -t 192.168.1.10

3. Reboot the camera.

4. Close the Command Prompt window when you see the following message:  Reply from :

Accessing the Live Video Stream
Live video stream can be viewed using one of the following methods:

• The mobile web interface using the USB WiFi Adapter. For more information, see (Optional) Using the USB Wi-Fi Adapter.
• Web browser interface: http:///.
• Network Video Management software application.

Aiming the Camera
Reference the camera’s live stream as you aim the camera.

1.   Loosen the adjustment screw closest to the junction box to rotate the camera arm.
2.   Loosen the center adjustment screw to tilt the camera.
3. Loosen the adjustment screw on the camera to turn the camera body.   
4. If the camera is turned sideways to look vertically at a scene, you can remove the sun shroud then re-install it to cover the camera’s new angle of view.

(Optional) Configuring microSD Card Storage
To use the  camera’s SD card storage feature, you must insert a microSD card into the card slot.
It is recommended that the microSD card have a write speed of class 10 or better. If the microSD card  does not meet the recommended write speed, the recording performance may suffer and result in the  loss of frames or footage.

1. Insert a microSD card into the camera. Do not force the microSD card into the camera or you may  damage the card and the camera.
2. Access the camera’s web interface to enable the onboard storage feature. For more information, see the Pelco Sarix Thermal Enhanced 4 Camera Operations Manual.

Configuring the Camera
After the camera is installed, configure it using the instructions in the current version of the Pelco Sarix Thermal Enhanced 4 Camera Operations Manual.

Connecting to Power and External Devices

If PoE is not available, the camera may be powered through the auxiliary power cable using 12 VDC or 24 VAC. The power consumption information is listed in the product specifications.
