If the mounting surface is not strong enough, the camera may fall and cause serious damage.
Connect the cables To make the cable connections: 1. Connect a 12 VDC or 24 VAC power supply to the power input. 2. Connect a coaxial cable from the camera’s BNC connector to a CCTV monitor or video recording device. Adjust the lens The camera is mounted on a pan-tilt-twist (3-axis gimbal) rotating platform so that it is easy to adjust the camera orientation. To adjust the lens: 1. Rotate the panning table to adjust the panning position of the camera. The adjusting range is from 0 to 355 degrees. 2.

Save changes Changes are not saved automatically. When all setup changes to the camera are done, move the cursor in the Setup Menu to Save All and press Enter to save all changes made. Select the lens type In the Setup Menu, go to Lens and select the type of lens used with the camera, Auto or Manual. Select Auto to set the lens type to auto iris or select Manual for a manual lens.

Brightness: Select the brightness level to which the iris and shutter speed will adjust automatically. The value ranges from 0 to 255. Low Luminance: Sets the lux level for low light conditions.
Set the white balance White balance (WB) tells the dome camera what the color white looks like. Based on this information, the dome camera will then continue to display all colors correctly even when the color temperature of the scene changes such as from daylight to fluorescent lighting, for example.
Set the backlight compensation (BLC) This feature tells the camera to adjust its total exposure (iris and shutter) to ignore the brightest areas of the image, and instead concentrate on darker areas. In the Setup Menu, go to Backlight and select the options to be modified: Off: Option is disabled. Default setting. BLC (Backlight Compensation): BLC can improve image quality when the background illumination is high. It prevents the object in the center from appearing too dark.
Luminance: High, Medium (default), Low Contrast: High, Midhigh, Mid (default), Midlow, low Set the motion detection Use this function to identify when a moving object passes in front of the camera to activate an alarm. Up to four motion detection areas can be configured, each by size and location on-screen. In the Setup Menu, go to Motion Det and select the desired parameters. Default setting is Off. Detect Sense: Set the sensitivity level for motion detection. A higher value is more sensitive.

The privacy mask is fully transparent at value 0.00 and not transparent at 1.00. Mosaic: Enable this option to mask an area with a mosaic effect. Default is Off.
Delay CNT: This is the time in seconds before Day↔Night switches. A long delay response would be used, for example, to avoid switching from Night to Day mode when car headlights pass in front of the camera. Day→Night: Set the threshold level on how dark it should be before switching from Day to Night mode. Lower (Higher) value makes the camera switched from Day to Night at lower (higher) illumination Night→Day: Set the threshold level on how light it should be before switching from Night to Day mode.
