Connections & Dipswitches

The camera has a 2.1mm socket which requires 12V DC and uses a regulated power supply rated above the current draw of the camera.
The camera is polarity sensitive so connections must be correctly made.
The camera has a standard BNC connector for the 4-in-1 video output, the output can be changed to AHD, CVI, or CVBS if required.

Dipswitch 4-In-1 Technology

Selectable HD-TVI, HD-CVI, AHD, and CVBS (Analogue) Output. By default the camera is set to HD-TVI, however, the output can be changed to AHD, CVI, or CVBS if required.
This output can be changed with the dip switches on the fly-lead of the camera. Please note the “Output Mode” in the menu of the DVR won’t change the format, as the dip switch overrides the output.
The dip switch configuration can be found below:-

7.2 Key Menu Settings
Exposure Mode – AUTO / GLOBE / GLOBAL sets the required shutter speed for the current light level. The shutter speed will automatically detect the required length of time to keep the digital sensor exposed to light. FLK option sets the shutter speed to stop synchronization with lighting so that the pulsing effect is minimized.
White Balance – Colour adjustment of the camera to be set up so objects appear a natural color. ATW / PRO (Automatic tracking white balance) continually tracks and adjusts the white balance, making it suitable for use in cameras in which the image content and lighting are subject to changes.
Day & Night – The camera can be set to color or B&W mode or have it automatically switch External is set as default, and the switch between color and black & white is controlled by an external trigger In this a light- dependent resistor.
DNR (Noice Reduction) – Noise Reduction is the process of removing noise from the video signal by applying a digital filter. 2D noise reduction reduces noise in the foreground of the image whereas 3D noise reduction reduces noise in both the foreground and the background of the image.
D-WDR – Digitally adjusts the exposure in areas of the frame to maintain optimum levels in both the dark and bright areas of an image.
NOTE – Some models may not have a D-WDR function.
Reset – Defaults the camera to factory settings. This setting helps when fault-finding issues with the camera to ensure all settings default.

Troubleshooting

8.1 Camera Rebooting / Turning Off
A. Check the voltage to the camera (under load) using a digital multi-meter, if below 10.8V then move the power supply closer to the camera.
B. For 12V DC cameras, only use a regulated power supply rated above the current consumption, so that the camera is always receiving the correct supply which is rated above the current consumption.
C. Use thicker gauge copper cabling to reduce the voltage drop to the camera, using a thicker cable will reduce the resistance between the camera and the power supply and therefore reduce the voltage dropped along the cable.

8.2 Poor Quality Images
A. Check the video format of the DVR (digital video recorder), then set the camera to the relevant video format – see the 4-In-1 Technology
B. If set to CVBS, then this is a low-quality video output for legacy systems (analog – CVBS), when using a 2 MegaPixel DVR or above then use another video format, like HD-TV.
C. Reset the camera menu via Zip Coaxitron – OSD Menu
D. Check if the DVR (digital video recorder) supports the resolution of the camera.

8.3 Image is Black & White
A. Check the video format your DVR supports, then set the camera to the relevant video format – see the 4-In-1 Technology
B. Reset the camera menu via Zip Coaxitron OSD Menu
D. Check if the DVR (digital video recorder) supports the resolution of the camera.

8.4 NCD / No Image Displayed on Recorder
A. Check the voltage to the camera (under load) using a digital multi-meter, if below 10.8V then move the power supply closer to the camera.
B. For 12V DC cameras, only use a regulated power supply rated above the current consumption, so that the camera is always receiving the correct supply which is rated above the current consumption.
C. Use thicker gauge copper cabling to reduce the voltage drop to the camera, using a thicker cable will reduce the resistance between the camera and the power supply and therefore reduce the voltage dropped along the cable.
D. Ensure that the BNC – BNC lead that is connected between the camera and DVR has no shorts between the ground and the center core (positive) or open circuits along with the center core (positive) or open circuits along the ground.

General Maintenance

Routinely clean the camera to prevent dust build-up as this can affect the performance of the camera. It is recommended to use a damp non-abrasive microfibre cloth.
Routinely check the connections for power and data to ensure no water ingress and corrosion.
Check that the cameras are firmly attached to the wall or mounting bracket.
Check playback in the recorder to ensure the camera is recording and triggering properly.
