INITIAL SET button (Initializing / NTSCPAL switch button)
● How to initialize the camera
Follow the steps below to initialize the network camera.
1 Turn off the power of the camera. When using a PoE hub, disconnect the Ethernet cable from the camera.
When using an external power supply, disconnect the 2P power cable plug from the camera.
2 Turn on the power of the camera while holding down the INITIAL SET button, and keep 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.
SD ON/OFF button
1 When the SD ON/OFF button is pressed for less than 1 second, the SD MOUNT indicator is lit
green and data can be saved to the SD memory card.
2 When the SD ON/OFF button is held down for about 2 seconds, the SD MOUNT indicator goes
out, and the SD memory card can be removed.
Making connections
Turn off each system's power supply before making a connection. Before making connections,
prepare the required peripheral devices and cables.
Connect an Ethernet cable (category 5e or better, straight)
IMPORTANT:
● Use all 4 pairs (8 pins) of the Ethernet cable (category 5e or better, straight).
● 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 sup-
ply, 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, net-
work 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 stop the 12 V DC power supply after
operating it and a PoE hub or router 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.
● When cables are used outdoors, there is a chance that they may be affected by light-
ning. In this case, install a lightning arrester just before where the Ethernet cable
connects to the camera.

● 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)
• Supply voltage: 2.5 V ±0.5 V
• Recommended sensitivity of microphone: -48 dB ±3 dB (0 dB=1 V/Pa,1 kHz)
● Input level for line input: Approx. -10 dBV
Waterproof treatment for the cable joint sections
Adequate waterproof treatment is required for the cables when installing the camera with cables
exposed or installing it under the eaves.
The camera body is waterproof, but the cable ends are not waterproof. Be sure to use the sup-
plied waterproof tape at the points where the cables are connected to apply waterproof treatment
in the following procedure.
Failure to observe this or use of a tape other than the provided waterproof tape (such as a vinyl
tape) may cause water leakage resulting in malfunction.

manner.
IMPORTANT:
● Also waterproof the 2P power cable (F: accessory),
4P alarm cable (E: accessory), and external connec-
tions in the same way.
● Stretch the tape to approx. twice its length (see the
illustration) and wind it around the cable. Insufficient
tape stretch causes insufficient waterproofing.
● To prevent the Ethernet cable hook from coming
loose easily, fit the LAN connector cover (D: acces-
sory) onto the pigtail cable as illustrated, and then
slide it in the direction indicated by the arrow. The
connector of the Ethernet cable used with this cam-
era must meet the following restrictions.
Height when inserted (From bottom to hook.):
Max. 16 mm {5/8 inches}
Connector width: Max. 14 mm {9/16 inches}
● To install this product outdoors, be sure to waterproof
the cables.
Waterproof grade (IEC IP66 or equivalent) is applied
to this product only when it is installed correctly as
described in these operating instructions and appro-
priate waterproof treatment is applied.
The camera mount bracket and camera arm are not
waterproof.

IMPORTANT:
● Be sure to use the 4P alarm cable (E: accessory) provided with this product.
● Install external devices so that they do not exceed the ratings above.
● When using the external I/O terminals as the output terminals, ensure they do not
cause signal collision with external signals.
Note:
● Off, input, and output of the external I/O terminal 2 and 3 can be switched by configur-
ing the setting. Refer to the Operating Instructions on the provided CD-ROM for further
information about the external I/O terminal 2 and 3 (ALARM IN2, 3) settings ("Off",
"Alarm input", "Alarm output" or "AUX output").

(F: accessory)
Connect the output cable of the AC adaptor to the 2P power cable (F: accessory).
IMPORTANT:
● Use 12 V DC power supply that is insulated from the commercial AC power.
● Be sure to use the 2P power cable (F: accessory) provided with this product.
● Be sure to fully insert the 2P power cable (F: 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 side of this unit) regarding power source and power consumption.
Connect an external amplifier-embedded speaker to the audio/
monitor output cable
Connect a stereo mini plug (ø3.5 mm {1/8 inches}).
● Output impedance: Approx. 600 Ω (unbalanced)
● Recommended cable length: Less than 10 m {32.8 feet}
● Output level: -20 dBV (can switch to monitor output)
IMPORTANT:
● Connect/disconnect the audio cables and turn on the power of the camera after turn-
ing 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).
When connecting to a network using a PoE hub
Before starting the installation, check the entire system configuration.

IMPORTANT:
● The adjustment monitor is used to adjust the field of view when installing or servicing
the camera. It is not provided for recording/monitoring use.
● Depending on the adjustment monitor, some characters (camera title, preset ID, etc.)
may not 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.
