INITIAL SET button (Initializing / NTSC ⇔ PAL switch button)
● How to initialize the camera
Follow the steps below to initialize the network camera.
T urn off the power of the camera. When using a PoE hub, disconnect the Ethernet cable
q
from the camera. When using an external power supply, disconnect the power cable plug
(B: accessory) from the 12 V DC power supply terminal.
T urn on the power of the camera while holding down the INITIAL SET button, and keep
w
the INITIAL SET button held down till the SD MOUNT indicator is lit in green (more than 10
seconds). In about 2 minutes after releasing the INITIAL SET button, the camera will start
up and the settings including the network settings will be initialized.
IMPORTANT:
● When the camera is initialized, the settings including the network settings will be
initialized. Note that the CRT key (SSL encryption key) used for the HTTPS protocol
will not be initialized.
● Before initializing the settings, it is recommended to write down the settings in advance.
● Do not turn off the power of the camera during the process of initialization. Otherwise, it
may fail to initialize and may cause malfunction.
● When the INITIAL SET button (i.e. the initializing button) is pressed (less than 1 second) to
switch the output signal of the MONITOR OUT terminal (NTSC⇔PAL output), the MONITOR
OUT terminal can be switched for the NTSC monitor/PAL monitor.
Making connections
Turn off each system's power supply before making a connection. Before making connections,
prepare the required peripheral devices and cables.
Example of audio cable connector
Example of Ethernet cable connector
Connect an Ethernet cable (category 5e or better, straight)
Connect an Ethernet cable (category 5e or better, straight) to the network connector.
IMPORTANT:
● Use all 4 pairs (8 pins) of the Ethernet cable.
● The maximum cable length is 100 m {328 feet}.
● Make sure that the PoE device in use is compliant with IEEE802.3af standard.
● When connecting both the 12 V DC power supply and the PoE device for power
supply, 12 V DC will be used for power supply.*
* If a 12 V DC power supply and a PoE hub or router are used at the same time,
network connections may not be possible. In this case, disable the PoE settings.
Refer to the operating instructions of the PoE hub or router in use.
* Depending on the PoE device used, if you disconnect 12 V DC while 12 V DC
power supply and a PoE hub or router are used at the same time, the power supply
may stop, causing the camera to restart.
● When the Ethernet cable is disconnected once, reconnect the cable after around
2 seconds. When the cable is quickly reconnected, the power may not be supplied
from the PoE device.
SPN310
Connect an external amplifier-embedded speaker to the audio output cable
Connect a stereo mini plug (ø3.5 mm).
● Output impedance
: Approx. 600 Ω (unbalanced)
● Recommended cable length : Less than 10 m {32.8 feet}
● Output level
: –20 dBV
IMPORTANT:
● Connect/disconnect the audio cables and turn on the power of the camera after turning
off the power of the audio output devices. Otherwise, loud noise may be heard from
the speaker.
● Make sure that the stereo mini plug is connected to this cable. When a monaural mini
plug is connected, audio may not be heard.
When connecting a monaural speaker with amplifier, use a locally procured conversion
cable (mono-stereo).
Microphone/line input cable
SPN531
SPN311
Connect a stereo mini plug (ø3.5 mm).
● Input impedance: Approx. 2 kΩ (unbalanced)
● Recommended cable length: Less than 1 m {3.28 feet} (for microphone input)
Less than 10 m {32.8 feet} (for line input)
● Recommended microphone: Plug-in power type (option)
● Input level for the line input: Approx. –10 dBV
● Recommended sensitivity of microphone: –48 dB ±3 dB (0 dB=1 V/Pa,1 kHz)
When connecting to a network using a PoE hub
Before starting the installation, check the entire system configuration. The following illustration
gives a wiring example of how to connect the camera to the network via a PoE device (hub).

Caution:
● A READILY ACCESSIBLE DISCONNECT DEVICE SHALL BE INCORPORATED
TO THE EQUIPMENT POWERED BY 12 V DC POWER SUPPLY.
● ONLY CONNECT 12 V DC CLASS 2 POWER SUPPLY (UL 1310/CSA 223) or
9 mm
LIMITED POWER SOURCE (IEC/EN/UL/CSA 60950-1).
{11/32 inches}
Connect the output cable of the DC power supply to the power cable plug (B: accessory).
L oosen the screw of the power cable plug (B: accessory), strip 3 mm to 7 mm {1/8 inches
q
to 9/32 inches} from the end of the wire, twist the stripped part of the wire sufficiently to
avoid short circuit, and then connect the output cable to the power cable plug
(B: accessory).
Tighten the screw of the power cable plug (B: accessory). (Recommended tightening
w
torque: 0.34 N·m {0.25 lbf·ft})
Note:
● Check whether the stripped part of the wire is not exposed and is securely
connected.
● When connecting an external power supply to the camera, use the AWG 16 to
AWG 24 single-wired or stranded wired cables.
IMPORTANT:
● The 12 V DC power supply shall be insulated from the commercial AC power.
● Be sure to use the power cable plug (B: accessory) provided with this product.
● Be sure to fully insert the power cable plug (B: accessory) into the 12 V DC power
supply terminal. Otherwise, it may damage the camera or cause malfunction.
● When installing the camera, make sure that excessive force is not applied to the
power cable.
● Be sure to use an AC adaptor compliant with the Specifications (written in the
indication label on the bottom side of this unit) regarding power source and power
consumption.
Connect the alarm input/output cable
Connect the cables of external devices to the EXT I/O terminal plug.
When connecting an external device, remove 8 mm - 9 mm of the outer jacket of the cable
q
and twist the cable core to prevent the short circuit first.
Specification of cable (wire): AWG 20 - AWG 26, Single core, twisted
Push down the button of the desired terminal on the external I/O terminal plug with a ball-
w
point pen, and release the button when the cable of the external device is fully inserted
into the terminal hole.
Note:
● Check whether the stripped part of the wire is not exposed and is securely connected.

be displayed on the screen.
● Use a switching hub or a router which is compliant with 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX.
● If a PoE hub is not used, each network camera must be connected to a 12 V DC
power supply.
● When using 12 V DC, power supply from a PoE hub or router is not required.
