Important Safeguards and Warnings

Electrical safety

  • All installation and operation should conform to your local electrical safety codes.

  • The power source shall conform to the Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) standard, and supply power with rated voltage which conforms to Limited Power Source requirement according to IEC60950-1. Please note that the power supply requirement is subject to the device label.

  • Make sure the power supply is correct before operating the device.

  • A readily accessible disconnect device shall be incorporated in the building installation wiring.

  • Prevent the power cable from being trampled or pressed, especially the plug, power socket, and junction extruded from the device.
    Environment

  • Do not aim the device at strong light to focus, such as lamp light and sunlight; otherwise, it might cause over brightness or light marks, which are not the device malfunction, and affect the longevity of Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS).

  • Do not place the device in a damp or dusty environment, extremely hot or cold temperatures, or locations with strong electromagnetic radiation or unstable lighting.

  • Keep the device away from any liquid to avoid damage to the internal components.

  • Keep the indoor device away from rain or dampness to avoid fire or lightning.

  • Keep sound ventilation to avoid heat accumulation.

  • Transport, use, and store the device within the range of allowed humidity and temperature.

  • Heavy stress, violent vibration, or water splash are not allowed during transportation, storage, and installation.

  • Pack the device with standard factory packaging or the equivalent material when transporting the device.

  • Install the device in a location where only the professional staff with relevant knowledge of safety guards and warnings can access it. The accidental injury might happen to the non-professionals who enter the installation area when the device is operating normally.
    Operation and Daily Maintenance

  • Do not touch the heat dissipation component of the device to avoid scald.

  • carefully follow the instructions in the manual when performing any disassembly operation about the device; otherwise, it might cause water leakage or poor image quality due to unprofessional disassembly. Please make sure that the gasket ring is flat and properly installed in the groove before installing the cover. Please contact the after-sale service for desiccant replacement if there is condensed fog on the lens after unpacking or when the desiccant turns green (Not all models are included with the desiccant).

  • It is recommended to use the device together with a lightning arrester to improve the lightning protection effect.

  • It is recommended to connect the grounding hole to the ground to enhance the reliability of the device.

  • Do not touch the image sensor directly (CMOS). Dust and dirt could be removed with an air blower, or you can wipe the lens gently with a soft cloth that is moistened with alcohol.

  • Device body can be cleaned with a soft dry cloth, which can also be used to remove stubborn stains when moistened with mild detergent. To avoid possible damage on device body coating which could cause performance decrease, do not use volatile solvent such as alcohol, benzene, diluent, and so on to clean the device body, nor can strong, abrasive detergent be used.

  • Dome cover is an optical component, do not touch or wipe the cover with your hands directly during installation or operation. For removing dust, grease, or fingerprints,  wipe gently with moisten oil-free cotton with diethyl or moisten the soft cloth. You can also air blower to remove dust.

WARNING

  • Please strengthen the protection of network, device data, and personal information by adopting measures that include but are not limited to using strong passwords,  modifying a password regularly, upgrading the firmware to the latest version, and isolating the computer networks. For some a device with old firmware versions, the ONVIF  password will not be modified automatically along with the modification of the system password, and you need to upgrade the firmware or manually update the ONVIF password.
  • Use standard components or accessories provided by the manufacturer and make sure the device is installed and maintained by professional engineers.
  • The surface of the image sensor should not be exposed to laser beam radiation in an environment where a laser beam device is used.
  • Do not provide two or more power supply sources for the device unless otherwise specified. A failure to follow this instruction might cause damage to the device.

Introduction

1.1 Cable

  • Cable types might vary with different devices, and the actual product shall prevail.
  • Please waterproof all the cable joints with insulating tape and waterproof tape to avoid short circuit and water damage. For the detailed operation, see the FAQ manual.

For more information about cable ports, see Table 1-1.
Table 1-1 Cable information

No. Port Name Function Description
1 Audio  output Connects to the speaker to output audio signal.
2 Audio  input Connects to the sound-pick-up device to receive the audio

signal.
3| Ethernet port| Connects to the standard Ethernet cable.
 PoE is available on a select model.
4| Alarm I/O| Alarm signal input/output.
No.| Port Name| Function Description
---|---|---
5| DC 12V/AC 24V power input| Inputs DC 12V/AC 24V power. Please be sure to supply power as instructed in the Guide.

• When using AC 24V power, please connect the power input port to the 2PIN converter first.• Device abnormity or damage could occur if power is not supplied correctly.

For more information about the I/O port, see Table 1-2.
Table 1-2 Alarm information

Port Port Name Function
Alarm I/O ALARM_OUT Outputs alarm signal to the alarm device.

When connecting to the alarm device, only the ALARM_OUT port and
ALARM_OUT_GND port with the same number can be used together.

ALARM_OUT_G ND
ALARM_IN1| Receives the switch signal of the external alarm source.

Connect different alarm input devices to the same ALARM_IN_GNDport.

ALARM_IN2
ALARM_IN_GN D

1.2 Connecting Alarm Input/output

Alarm input/output is available on select models.
Step1 Connect the alarm input device to the alarm input end of the I/O port.
The device collects different states of alarm input port when the input signal is idling and being grounded.

  • The device collects logic “1” when the input signal is connecting to +3V to +5V or idling.
  •  The device collects logic “0” when the input signal is grounded.

Step2 Connect the alarm output device to the alarm output end of the I/O port. The alarm output is a relay switch output, which can only connect to NO alarm devices.

The ALARM_OUT port and the ALARM_OUT_GND port with the same number constitute a switch for alarm output, see Figure 1-3. The switch is open normally and closes when there is alarm output.

Figure1-3 Alarm output

Step3 Log in to the web interface and configure alarm input and alarm output in alarm setting.

  • The alarm input in the web interface is corresponding to the alarm input end of the I/O port. There will be high level and low-level alarm signals generated by the alarm input device when an alarm occurs, set the input mode to “NO” (default) if the alarm input signal is logic “0” and to “NC” if the alarm input signal is logic “1”.
  • The alarm output in the web interface is corresponding to the alarm output end of the device, which is also the alarm output end of the I/O port.
 Network Configuration

Device initialization and IP setting can be finished with the “ConfigTool” or in the web interface. For more information, see the WEB operation manual.

  • Device initialization is available on select models, and it is required at first use and after the device is being reset.
  • Device initialization is available only when the IP addresses of the device (192.168.1.108 by default) and the PC stays in the same network segment.
