1 Overview Introduction The device complies with the HDCVI standard and supports video transmission and signal control over coaxial cable. The device produces megapixel resolution video signal and needs to be connected to XVR to achieve high speed, long distance and no delay in signal transmission.
2 Wire connection Cable types may vary depending on the cameras and the actual product shall prevail. power outlet Supplies 12 VDC power. Check that the power consumption of the devices connected to this port is less than 2W. Make sure the power frequency of the devices connected to this port is higher than 1 MHz, such as sound pickup, temperature/humidity sensor and other devices without change of energy consumption.
Device malfunction or damage may occur if power is not supplied correctly. Be sure to supply power as indicated in the manual. 24 VAC power input port video out port Connects the XVR to a video output signal. CAVEAT When the device is in PoC power mode, please do not connect another device between device and PoC XVR or PoC transceiver, including UTC, Balun, optical transceiver, distributor, converter, etc.;...

Once the intrusion is detected, the LED will turn on to alert the intruder. PIR Detector Detection Range The horizontal detection range of the sensor is 100°...
If you selectCamera(Camera Set), the acoustic and light alarm will be triggered on the device. If you selectXVR(XVR Set), the acoustic and light alarm will be triggered on the XVR. To see more information aboutXVR(XVR Set), refer to the XVR user manual. Set the acoustic alarm and light warning This function is only available when the activation mode is set toCamera (Camera Set).
7 Entrance camera configuration This feature is available on select models. This series of devices can serve as the input to connect compatible wireless node devices such as door/window contacts, sirens and PIR detectors to the XVR to form a local alarm network. Once an alarm from a device on the network is triggered, the device transmits an alarm signal according to the settings.

10 Frequently Asked Questions PoC power supply PoC XVR supports PoC function. PoC camera can be divided into AT camera and AF camera. The power consumption of the AT camera is less than 12 W and the power consumption of the AF camera is less than 6 W. You must check the maximum power of PoC before using it.
centralized power supply The usual problem with a centralized power supply is that obvious black stripes appear on the device screen, interfering with display. The principle of centralized power is as follows: Centralized feeding principle CAM1 CAM2 CAM3 CAM4 The power output of CAM4 has two paths, return path 1 and return path 2. Reflow 2 first flows to CAM1 and then flows to the power supply from the power supply ground of CAM1.
