    V962B-IR312M 1080P (2 MP) resolution camera with a 3.3-12 mm motorized varifocal lens; includes heater V962B-IR922M 1080P (2 MP) resolution camera with a 9-22 mm motorized varifocal lens; includes heater The optimal Power over Ethernet (IEEE 802.3af) supports power to the camera to be delivered via the network, eliminating the need for a power outlet and reducing installation costs.
  • Page 5 1. Network Connector The V960B connects to the network via a standard network cable and automatically detects the speed of the local network segment (10BaseT/100BaseTX Ethernet). This socket could also be used to power the V960B via Power over Ethernet (PoE). The camera auto-senses the correct power level when using a PoE (Class 2) switch, router or injector.

    2. Installation Select a location for the installation of the V960B camera. Be sure the area around the selected location is clear of obstacles (such as steel beams, headers, pipes, electrical wiring, etc.) which would interfere with the mounting of the camera and that the location can support the weight of the unit [the V960B unit weighs 1.6 lb (0.74 kg)].
  • Page 8: Adjusting The Camera Direction

    2.1 Adjusting the Camera Direction The camera body is set with bracket movement. Loosen the set screws to adjust camera view. Secure the set screws. 3. Accessing the Camera The V960B can be accessed with most standard operating systems and browsers. The recommended browser is Internet Explorer®...
  • Page 9 When you first access the camera you will be asked to download and install an Active X control from the camera to display a Live image. NOTE: The layout of the live view page in the camera may have been customized to meet specific requirements.
  • Page 10: Accessing The Camera From The Internet

    3.2 Accessing the Camera from the Internet Once installed, the camera will be accessible on the Local Area Network (LAN). Then you must configure the router/firewall to allow incoming data traffic to access the camera from the Internet. For security reasons this is usually done on a specific port, using port forwarding. Please refer to the documentation for router/firewall for further instructions on port forwarding.

  • Page 12: How To Stream H.264

    Multicasting is bandwidth-conserving technology that reduces bandwidth usage by simultaneously delivering a single stream of information to multiple network recipients. This technology is used primarily on delimited networks (intranets), as each user needs an uninterrupted data flow and should not rely on network routers. 3.6 How to Stream H.264 Deciding on the combination of protocols and methods to use depends on your viewing requirements and on the properties of your network.
  • Page 13: Setup

    4. Setup The V960B is configured from the Setup tab, which is available on the upper-left hand side in the web interface. This configuration could be performed by: - Administrators, who have unrestricted access to all settings under the Setup tab. - Users, who have access to the Video &...

    5. Installation The following descriptions show examples of some of the features available with V960B . 5.1 Installation Mode Installation Mode allows use of the analog BNC output from the camera to connect the camera to a service monitor, in order to adjust the positioning of the camera and focus the lens. ON : Analog Output is enabled;...
  • Page 15: Video Codec

    6.1 Video Codec This section allows you to choose the compression codec for each of the video streams. Motion JPEG This format uses standard JPEG still images in the video stream. These images are then displayed and updated at a rate sufficient to create a stream that shows constantly updated motion. The Motion JPEG stream uses a considerable amount of bandwidth, but also provides excellent image quality and access to every individual image contained in the stream.
  • Page 16 Image Rate 2.5 ~ 30fps in normal mode (1 ~ 30fps in slow shutter mode) NOTE: If the slow shutter mode is turned on and the low light condition is met, the image rate automatically goes down. In this case, the image is half of the normal mode. Bitrate Control (CBR or VBR) When using H.264 compression, if there is only limited bandwidth available, a constant bit rate (CBR) is recommended, although this may compromise image quality.
  • Page 17 Bandwidth Limit Limit the bandwidth that the V960B can use during a network connection. Max Bandwidth Specify the maximum bandwidth that the V960B can use during a network connection. < Output resolution table for 1080p (Full HD) model > First Stream Second Stream 1080p (1920 x 1080) 1.3MP (1280 x 1024)

  • Page 27: Event

    11. Event 11.1 Alarm Port Alarm Input (dry contact) Used for connecting external alarm contacts and triggering specific alarm-based events. The input is typically connected to a motion detector or any other external security device, so that recording can be triggered and/or still images could be recorded and/or uploaded whenever the sensor is activated. Enable or Disable the alarm input and define it as Normally Open (N/O) or Normally Closed (N/C).
  • Page 28: Motion

    11.2 Motion Motion Detection Motion detection is used to generate an alarm whenever movement occurs within the video image. A total of 4 motion detection zones can be configured. Configuring Motion Detection Click Motion in the Event menu. Click Area1-4 button for the area to be defined and select the corresponding area for motion detection by clicking the relevant color box.
  • Page 29: Mapping

    11.3 Mapping Event Mapping It is possible to define conditions that would cause the camera to respond with certain actions. A triggered event happens as a result of an event which is mapped within this menu. This could be caused by motion detection or an external alarm input. Alarm Out events could be triggered by either Motion or Alarm In.
  • Page 30: Network

    12. Network 12.1 IP Setup IP Address Configuration The V960B supports both IP version 4 and IP version 6 (IPv6 will be supported as of v3.0).
