1. Overview
With the latest encoding technology and built-in IR LEDs, Network IR PTZ
Camera presents strong HDR and high sensitivity performance, and is capable
of capturing high resolution images during daylight hours and even, in
pitch-black darkness.
At night, or in any low/zero lighting environments, Network IR PTZ Camera is
able to provide effective illumination to the objects 200 meters away, and also
delivers crystal clear images with high quality 30x optical zoom lens in long
distance.
With delicate mechanism design, Network IR PTZ Camera features Servo
Feedback technology, which makes the camera precisely return to the previous
position without stalling, and ensures the target monitoring region is fully
secured. IP66 International standard is also guaranteed for outdoor installation.
Furthermore, combining 0 downtime power switching (ZDT) technology, the
camera ensures smooth streaming without sudden power-loss.

2. Camera Cabling
The outdoor models are being IP66-rated to prevent water from entering the
camera. However, water might still enter the camera if it is being improperly
installed. Please make sure the warnings below are strictly followed when
installing the camera.
Place all cables and the adaptor in dry and well-waterproofed
environments, e.g. waterproof boxes. The purpose is to prevent moisture
accumulation inside the camera and moisture penetration into cables.
While running cables, slightly bend the cables to a U-shaped curve to
make a low point (as demonstrated in the figures below). The purpose is
to prevent water from entering the camera along the cables from above.
The cable entry hole of the outdoor mounting kit (indicated in the figure
below) needs to be sealed with thread seal tape to avoid water from
entering the camera.

2.1 Power Connection
To power up the camera, connect the DC12V or AC24V / DC28-48V power
adaptor to the power connector of the camera and the power outlet. Refer to the
diagram and pin definition below for AC24V / DC28-48V power connection.

Alternatively, users can use an Ethernet cable and connect it to the RJ-45 port
of the camera and an IEEE 802.3at (PoE+) 4-Pair 60W switch.
Zero Downtime Power Switching (ZDT)
When users connect DC12V power jack and the RJ-45 port at the same time,
the power input comes from the DC12V connector. If the DC12V power source
fails, the camera will switch power input seemly to the RJ-45 port until the
DC12V power source is restored.
2.2 Ethernet Cable Connection
To connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the RJ-45 connector of the camera,
and plug the other end of the cable to the network switch or PC.
NOTE: In some cases, Ethernet crossover cable might be needed when
connecting the camera directly to the PC.
NOTE: Check the status of the link indicator and activity indicator LEDs.
If the LEDs are unlit, please check the LAN connection.
Green Link Light indicates good network connection.
Orange Activity Light flashes for network activity indication.
