Assemble bubble ring ass’y(Optional) NOTES It is recommended to remove camera window for improving picture quality when you use bubble ring assy. The Network Dome Camera is for use in surface mounting applications and the mounting surface should be capable of supporting loads up to 10lb (4.5kg).
The Network Dome Camera must be installed by qualified service personnel in accordance with all local and federal electrical and building codes. The system should be installed according to Figures 5 through 8. Figure 6. Layout of Switches Setting Network Dome Camera Termination The device which is connected at end of line, whether it is a Network Dome Camera or keyboard controller, must have the cable for communication terminated by setting the appropriate DIP switch.
Setting Network Dome Camera Address (ID) To prevent damage, each Network Dome Camera must have a unique address (ID). When installing multiple Network Dome Cameras using a multiplexer, it is suggested that the Network Dome Camera address match the multiplexer port number. If you want to set the address more than 999, you should contact the service provider.
Connecting the Network The Network Dome Camera supports the operation through the network. Therefore, it is necessary to connect a standard RJ-45 cable to it. Generally a cross cable is used for directly connection to PC, while a direct cable is used for connection to a hub. Connecting the Power ...

NOTE G.711, also known as Pulse Code Modulation (PCM), is a very commonly used waveform codec. G.711 uses a sampling rate of 8,000 samples per second, with the tolerance on that rate 50 parts per million (ppm). Non-uniform quantization (logarithmic) with 8 bits is used to represent each sample, resulting in a 64 kbit/s bit rate.

Security – IP Filtering Use the IP Filtering tab to active the IP address filtering function that decides which IP address will be allowed normally and which will be denied. Figure 68. System / Security – IP Filtering IP Filtering Setting: Provides the IP filtering elements such as On/Off, Priority, Policy and IP Ranges.
NOTES - To add a subnet of network addresses, these must be added in CIDR (Classless Inter-Domain Routing) notation. For example: entering 192.168.1.0/24 will add all the addresses in the range 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.254. Please contact with your network administrator for more detail. - If you are accessing the network camera via a proxy server, the IP address for the proxy server must be added as an allowed address.

Time: The default setting is 00:00:00. New Server Time: Select the time zone where your camera is located. Click the Automatically adjust for daylight saving changes checkbox to automatically update the time changes caused by daylight saving. Time zone: The default setting is GMT. Time mode: The default setting is Set manually.
Network Contact with your network administrator to avoid any network conflicts before setting or changing the IP address of the camera. Network - Basic Use the Network-Basic tab to manage the network settings. Figure 70. System / Network – Basic...

IP Address Configuration: The DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server has a feature that automatically assigns an IP address to the device if there is a device on the network. Obtain IP address via DHCP: Select the choice box if you want to assign the IP address from DHCP server automatically, and then the remaining setting are read-only text.
- Click the Save button to save the settings, or click the Reset button to clear all of the information you entered without saving it Network – DDNS The DDNS (Dynamic DNS) service can provide the camera with its own URL (web address), which can then be used to access it over the Internet.
Page 127
Internet DDNS (Dynamic Domain Naming Service): Provides user with host name to access the camera. Enable DDNS: Click the Enable DDNS checkbox to active DDNS service. DDNS server: Enter the DDNS server name. The default DDNS server is security-device.name Registered host: Enter the registered host name.
Network – RTP These RTP settings concern the IP addresses and port numbers to use for video and audio stream(s). Figure 72. System / Network – RTP Port Range: The RTP Port range defines the range of ports from which the video/audio ports are automatically selected.
Page 129
NOTE Limit the range of ports permitted for RTP unicast/multicast by entering the Start port and End port in the provided fields. Start port: The Start port can be entered in the range 1024-65532. The default setting is 5008. End port: The End port can be entered in the range 1024-65532.
Network – UPnP UPnP is enabled by default, and the network camera then is automatically detected by operating systems and clients that support this protocol. Figure 73. System / Network – UPnP UPnP Setting: Click the Enable UPnP checkbox to disable the UPnP. The default setting is enabling.
Network – QoS Quality of Service (QoS) provides the means to guarantee a certain level of a specified resource to selected traffic on an IP network. Quality can be defined as e.g. a maintained level of bandwidth, low latency, no packet losses, etc. Figure 74.
Page 132
The types of traffic that can be marked are video, audio, event/alarm traffic and management network traffic. NOTES The main benefits of a QoS-aware network can be summarized as: - The ability to prioritize traffic and thus allow critical flows to be served before flows with lesser priority.
Network – Bonjour The network camera includes support for Bonjour. When enabled, the network camera is automatically detected by operating systems and clients that support this protocol. Figure 75. System / Network – Bonjour NOTES Bonjour – Also known as zero-configuration networking, Bonjour enables devices to automatically discover each other on a network, without having to enter IP addresses to configure DNS servers.
Network – Zeroconf Zeroconfig allows the network camera to create assign IP address for network cameras and connect to a network automatically. Figure 76. System / Network - Zeroconf Zero configuration networking(zeoconf), is a set of techniques that automatically creates a usable Internet Protocol(IP) network without manual operator intervention or special configuration servers.
Language Use the Language tab to configure the language supported. Figure 77. System / Language Language Setting: Provides the option of language supported. Language: The default setting is English. - Click the Save button to save the settings, or click the Reset button to clear all of the information you entered without saving it.
Maintenance Use Maintenance tab to maintain the camera especially software reset, upgrade, backup parameters and restore parameters. Figure 78. System / Maintenance Maintenance: Provides software reset of the camera when troubleshooting. Restart: The camera is restarted without changing any of the setting. Use this method if the unit is not behaving as expected.
