Step1 Preparations

【1】 Loosen the enclosure fixing screws (2 places), and remove the enclosure from the camera.
【2】 If necessary, insert a microSD memory card by referring to “Insert / remove a microSD memory card”.

Using the side cable access hole

When installing the camera on the ceiling or wall with cables exposed, cut out a portion of the enclosure to open a cable access hole.

•  To prevent injuries and protect the cables, finish the side cable access hole with a file to avoid sharp edges.

Step2 Processing the installation surface

Drill a hole in the installation surface. (2 screw holes / 1 cable access hole).

Note:

• When installing on a wall, make a hole so as to face the “⇧T (TOP)” mark of the template to the upper side.
• When installing on a ceiling, make a hole so as to face the “⇩F (FRONT)” mark of the template to the front side of the camera (in the direction of i-PRO logo).
• When running the cable using the side cable access hole of the camera, it is unnecessary to make a cable access hole on the installation surface.

Step3 Making connections

• Devices to which power can be supplied to this product are PoE hub and PoE power supplying equipment.
• Turn off each system’s power supply before making a connection.

Step4 Mount the camera

Secure the camera with fixing screws (2 pcs.) (M4:locally procured).

Minimum pull-out strength: 196 N {44 lbf}

Step5 Adjustment

【1】 Turn on the camera.
【2】 Download and launch the IP Setting Software and connect to the network by following information described on our support website .
【3】 Adjust the camera direction.
① Loosen TILT fixing screw.
② Adjust the horizontal (PAN) angle, vertical (TILT) angle, and azimuth (YAW) angle while watching the screen of the PC on the network.
Horizontal (PAN)angle : ±180°
Vertical (TILT) angle : -30° to +85°
Azimuth(YAW) angle : ±100°

Note:

• When the camera is installed on a wall, the gradient viewed from the camera is backwards. Images displayed from the camera can be reversed by setting “Image rotation” to “180° (Upside-down)” in the setup menu. For information about configuring “Image rotation” in the setup menu, refer to the Operating Instructions.
• When using the camera at a vertical position angle of 75°or more (a position where the camera lens is nearly horizontal), part of the image may appear to be overlapped due to influence from the dome cover. To prevent overlapping, decrease the vertical position angle or adjust the zoom ratio.
• When adjusting the camera, do not touch IR LED sheets with your fingers.

③ After adjusting the direction, fix the camera by tightening the TILT fixing screw.
Recommended tightening torque:0.59 N·m {0.44 lbf·ft}

【4】 Adjust the zoom ratio of the camera.
Adjust the zoom ratio using the TELE button and the WIDE button while watching the screen.

Note:

• After approx. 3 seconds from releasing the TELE button or the WIDE button, the auto focus function will automatically be executed. Do not touch the camera during execution of the auto focus function.
• Attaching the enclosure may cause slight defocusing. In this case, execute the auto focus function from the setup menu after attaching the enclosure and removing the protection film.
• When the resolution is set to higher than 640×360, image quality may deteriorate depending on the zoom ratio. Refer to our support website for further information.

【5】 Attach the enclosure and secure it by tightening the enclosure fi xing screws.

Attach the enclosure by aligning the i-PRO logo to the direction marker for installation (FRONT⇧) on the camera.
Recommended tightening torque: 0.59 N·m {0.44 lbf·ft})

Note:

• When installing the enclosure, align the enclosure fixing screw position in advance and install the enclosure straight onto the installation surface so that the direction of the camera does not change. If the direction of the camera is changed, insert the PAN table fixing screw (accessory) into the PAN table fixing screw hole (Refer to “Parts and functions”.) and then fix the direction of the camera by tightening the PAN table fixing screw. Recommended tightening torque: 0.59 N·m {0.44 lbf·ft}

【6】 After complete installation, remove the protection fi lm from the dome cover.

Insert / remove a microSD memory card

Insert a microSD memory card

①Remove the enclosure from the camera.
②Insert the microSD memory card into the end of the microSD slot and confi rm that a clicking sound is made.

Note:

Remove a microSD memory card

When removing a microSD memory card, reverse the procedure.
①Remove the enclosure from the camera.
②Remove the micro SD memory card by pushing it down until a click sound is heard while holding the card with a fi nger to prevent it from popping out.
③ Attach the enclosure to the camera again.

• When removing a microSD memory card, make sure to set “SD memory card” to “Not use” on the [SD memory card] tab of the setup menu before removing the microSD memory card. After removing the memory card, set back the “SD memory card” to “Use”. For information about the setup menu, refer to the Operating Instructions.

Note:
