Turn off each system’s power supply before making a connection. Before making connections,
prepare the required peripheral devices and cables.
Connect the output cable to the power cord plug (accessory).Ⓓ
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).
<Required cable>
LAN cable (category 5e or better, straight)
Use a LAN cable (category 5e or better, cross) when directly connecting the camera to a PC.
*1 Recommended cable length from the speaker : less than 10 m {32.8 feet}
Recommended cable length from the microphone : less than 1 m {3.28 feet}
● Since the connector storage section
does not have a sufficient space, use
audio cables and a LAN cable that do
not exceed the sizes described in the
illustrations.
● Off, input, and output of the external I/O terminal 2 and 3 can be switched by con-
figuring the setting. Refer to the operating instructions on the provided CD-ROM for
further information about the EXT I/O terminal 2 and 3 (ALARM IN2, 3) settings
(“Off”, “Alarm input”, “Alarm output” or “AUX output”).
● 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).
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
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)
● 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 the line input: Approx. –10 dBV
● Use all 4 pairs (8 pins) of the LAN 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.
* In the situation where a 12 V DC power supply and a PoE hub or router are used at
the same time and the 12 V DC power supply is then disconnected, the power
supply is stopped and the camera will restart.
● When the LAN 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.
● Do not connect 2 wires or more directly to a terminal. When it is necessary to connect
2 or more wires, use a splitter.
● Install external devices so that they do not exceed the rating of the network camera.
● When using the EXT I/O terminals as the output terminals, ensure they do not
cause signal collision with external signals.
● The adjustment monitor is used for checking the adjustment of the angular field of
view when installing the camera or when servicing. It is not provided for recording/
monitoring use.
● Depending on the 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.
* Use a LAN cable (category 5e or better, 8 pins, straight).
Connect the cables of external devices to the External I/O terminal plug (accessory).Ⓔ
q When connecting an external device, strip 8 mm - 9 mm {5/16 inches - 11/32 inches} of the
outer jacket of the cable and twist the cable core to prevent the short circuit first.
Specification of cable (wire): AWG20 - AWG26, Single core, twisted
w Push down the button of the desired terminal on the external I/O terminal plug with a ball-
point pen, and release the button when the cable of the external device is fully inserted
into the terminal hole.
● Check whether the stripped part of the wire is not exposed and is securely connected.
● ALARM IN1(DAY/NIGHT IN), ALARM IN2, ALARM IN3
Input specication : No-voltage make contact input (4 V - 5 V DC, internally pulled up)
OFF : Open or 4 V - 5 V DC
ON : Make contact with GND (required drive current: 1 mA or more)
● ALARM OUT, AUX OUT
Output specication
: Open collector output (maximum applied voltage: 20 V DC)
Open : 4 V - 5 V DC by internal pull-up
Close : Output voltage 1 V DC or less (maximum drive current: 50 mA)
* The default of EXT I/O terminals is “Off”.
● The 12 V DC power supply shall be insulated from the commercial AC power.
● Be sure to use the power cord plug (accessory) provided with this product.Ⓓ
● Be sure to fully insert the power cord plug (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.
●
● 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.
● How to initialize the camera
Follow the steps below to initialize the network camera.
q
Turn off the power of the camera. When using a PoE hub, disconnect the LAN cable from the camera.
When using an external power supply, disconnect the power cable connector of the camera.
