Quick Start Guide
This section introduces content covering the proper handling of the device, hazard prevention, and
prevention of property damage. Read carefully before using the device, comply with the guidelines
when using it.
Transportation Requirements
Storage Requirements
Installation Requirements
Strictly comply with the local electrical safety code and standards, and check whether the power
supply is correct before operating the device.
Please follow the electrical requirements to power the device.
When selecting the power adapter, the power supply must conform to the requirements of
ES1 in IEC 62368-1 standard and be no higher than PS2. Please note that the power supply
requirements are subject to the device label.
We recommend using the power adapter provided with the device.
Do not connect the device to two or more kinds of power supplies, unless otherwise specified, to
avoid damage to the device.
The device must be installed in a location that only professionals can access, to avoid the risk of
non-professionals becoming injured from accessing the area while the device is working.
Professionals must have full knowledge of the safeguards and warnings of using the device.
Do not place heavy stress on the device, violently vibrate or immerse it in liquid during installation.
III
Quick Start Guide
An emergency disconnect device must be installed during installation and wiring at a readily
accessible location for emergency power cut-off.
We recommend you use the device with a lightning protection device for stronger protection
against lightning. For outdoor scenarios, strictly comply with the lightning protection regulations.
Ground the function earthing portion of the device to improve its reliability (certain models
are not equipped with earthing holes). The device is a class I electrical appliance. Make sure that
the power supply of the device is connected to a power socket with protective earthing.
The dome cover is an optical component. Do not directly touch or wipe the surface of the cover
during installation.
Operation Requirements
The cover must not be opened while the device is powered on.
Do not touch the heat dissipation component of the device to avoid the risk of getting burnt.
IV
Quick Start Guide
Maintenance Requirements
Strictly follow the instructions to disassemble the device. Non-professionals dismantling the
device can result in it leaking water or producing poor quality images. For a device that is required
to be disassembled before use, make sure the seal ring is flat and in the seal groove when putting
the cover back on. When you find condensed water forming on the lens or the desiccant becomes
green after you disassembled the device, contact after-sales service to replace the desiccant.
Desiccants might not be provided depending on the actual model.
Use the accessories suggested by the manufacturer. Installation and maintenance must be
performed by qualified professionals.
Do not directly touch the photosensitive CMOS. Use an air blower to clean the dust or dirt on the
lens. When it is necessary to clean the device, slightly wet a soft cloth with alcohol, and gently
wipe away the dirt.
Clean the device body with a soft dry cloth. If there are any stubborn stains, clean them away with
a soft cloth dipped in a neutral detergent, and then wipe the surface dry. Do not use volatile
solvents such as ethyl alcohol, benzene, diluent, or abrasive detergents on the device to avoid
damaging the coating and degrading the performance of the device.
The dome cover is an optical component. When it is contaminated with dust, grease, or
fingerprints, use degreasing cotton moistened with a little ether or a clean soft cloth dipped in
water to gently wipe it clean. An air gun is useful for blowing dust away.
It is normal for a camera made of stainless steel to develop rust on its surface after being used in
a strong corrosive environment (such as the seaside, and chemical plants). Use an abrasive soft
cloth moistened with a little acid solution (vinegar is recommended) to gently wipe it away.
Afterwards, wipe it dry.

Quick Start Guide
1 Introduction
Cable
Waterproof all the cable joints with insulating tape and waterproof tape to avoid water damage and
prevent short circuits from occurring. For details, see FAQ manual.
Cables
1
Quick Start Guide
Connect alarm output device to the alarm output end of the I/O port. The alarm output is the
open-collector output.
Alarm output: alarm output is OD door, it needs to add pull-up resistor externally (Typical
value 10 KΩ) to make it work normally. The output signal is high level by default (external
pull-up voltage) after adding external pull-up resistor; the output signal becomes low
level when there is alarm output.
The operating current of alarm output port is recommended to be less than 10 mA. The
max current which is used to drive external circuit is 80 mA, it is recommended to add
relay externally when it is beyond the value.

Quick Start Guide
Alarm output
Log in webpage, and then configure alarm input and alarm output in alarm setting.
The alarm input in the webpage is corresponding to the alarm input end of the I/O port.
There will be high level and low level alarm signal generated by the alarm input device
when 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 webpage is corresponding to the alarm output end of the device,
which is also alarm output end of the I/O port.

2 Network Configuration
Device initialization and IP setting can be finished with the ConfigTool or on webpage. For more
information, see the Web Operation Manual.
Device initialization is available on select models, and it is required at first use and after 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.
Carefully plan the network segment for the device.
The following figures and pages are for reference only.
If you do not provide the email address for password reset, you can reset the password only
through XML file.

You can change IP address of one or multiple devices in one time. This section is based on
changing IP addresses in batch.
Changing IP addresses in batch is available only when the corresponding devices have the same
login password.
Search for the device whose IP address needs to be changed through ConfigTool.
1) Double-click ConfigTool.exe to open the tool.
2) Click Modify IP.
3) Select the searching way, enter the username and password, and then click OK.
The username is admin, and the password is the one you set while initializing the device.
Select the devices whose IP addresses need to be changed, and then click Modify IP.
Configure IP address.
Static mode: When you select Static, you need to enter Start IP, Subnet Mask, and
Gateway. The IP addresses of the devices will be modified successively starting from the
first IP entered.
DHCP mode: If the DHCP server is available in the network, when you select DHCP, the
IP address of devices will be automatically obtained through the DHCP server.
The same IP address will be set for multiple devices if you select the Same IP checkbox.
Click OK.
Logging in to Webpage
Open the IE browser, enter the IP address of the device in the address bar, and then press the
Enter key.
If the setup wizard opens, follow the on-screen instructions to complete it.
Enter the username and password in the login box, and then click Login.
