Supplied Accessories When you unpack your camera, check that all the supplied accessories are included: ⚫ Camera ................................ 1 ⚫ AC Power Adaptor .............. 1 ⚫ Power Cord ........................... 1 ⚫ RS232 Cable ......................... 1 ⚫ IR Remote Controller ........... 1 ⚫ This User Manual ............... 1 ⚫ AAA Batteries.......................
Quick Start Step 1. Please check that all connections are correct before powering on the camera. Page 2 of 56 Rev 1.
Step 2. Set the system select switch for your desired video output resolution and frame rate. For many applications, setting 0 (1080p-60) will provide the best overall performance. For highest possible resolution, use setting 0 (1080p-60) or 6 (1080p-30), however your actual realized frame rate may be limited to a lower value than 60 fps by your software, hardware, and/or network connection. NOTE: After changing this dial, you need to restart the camera to see the effect. Turn the camera off then on.
Features 1. Supports simultaneous 3G-SDI, HDMI and IP network streaming up to 1080p-60. 2. Supports non-simultaneous CVBS (composite video) output via RCA connector (480i or 576i). 3. Includes Panasonic's high quality, 1/2.7 inch, 2.07 million effective pixels, HD CMOS sensor, which can produce a maximum 1920 x 1080 image with a high quality, maximum output frame rate of 60 fps (frames per second). 4. Ultra-high frame rate 60fps for HDMI and USB and up to 120fps for IP Streaming (120fps at 720p only). 5.

Network Connection 1. Operating Environment Operating System: Windows 2000/2003/XP/Vista/7/8.1/10 Network Protocol: TCP/IP Client PC: P4/128M RAM/40G HD/ support for scaled graphics card, support for DirectX8.0 or more advanced version. 2. Equipment Installation 1) Connect camera to your network via a CAT5 or CAT6 patch cable or directly to your PC via a CAT5 or CAT6 crossover cable. 2) Turn on camera power.
Setting up a Network Video Stream with the PTZOptics camera (Also see information on camera web information in the following section) 1. The first thing you are going to want to do to get your camera up and streaming on your network is to connect your camera to power, to an active network port on your network and finally to power the camera on. 2. Next, go online and download the IP address setting tool, for Windows Operating Systems, from the PTZOptics Download Page.
You should now be able to set your cameras IP address to one in the range of your network. You should be able to leave the subnet mask alone, unless you are configuring the camera for use across (example: 192.168.111.1) (Note that in more complex network environments you may have to request a “STATIC IP” from the IT department to prevent any possible complications on your network in addition to the appropriate Network Mask, Default Gateway and First DNS for that Static IP) 5.
The main thing to note about the IP interface is that all adjustments will occur on the IP stream only. It will not affect the HDMI, SDI or USB connections of the camera. In addition, presets set in the IP interface will not be the same as the IR remote presets and vice-versa. 9. You should now be able to receive an RTSP stream from your camera. The following video, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hmqI0hjT0UI&feature=youtu.be, shows how to setup an RTSP stream in Wirecast.
EXTRAS 1. Discovering your Network IP range. NOTE: Changing your IP address without talking to your network admin could lead to conflicts with your network. If you change your address to one that is already is use it will cause communication problems. If you need to discover the IP address range of your network you can do so by using command prompt for Windows or Terminal for Macs. To do this on a PC, you would type “CMD” into your search bar in the Windows menu.
Camera Web Interface 1 Homepage introduction 1.1 Home Page All pages include 2 areas: On the left is the menu and camera control On the right is real time monitoring - displaying video image and the Parameter settings 1.2 Video viewing window Click “Live” in the menu area. The video viewing window will be resized based upon video resolution, the higher the resolution is, the bigger the playing area is. Double click the viewing window and it will show in full-screen.
1.3 PTZ Control 1) Pan and Tilt control: Up, Down, Left and Right arrows and the home button allow you to manual drive the camera to the desired position. 2) Zoom: Zoom in and Zoom out buttons allow for wide or narrow (tele) views of the space. 3) Focus: Focus In and Focus Out buttons allow for fine manual focus adjustment if the camera has any problems autofocusing on a difficult object. 4) PTZ Speeds: Pan speed can be set at any rate between 1 - 24, Tilt speed can be set at any rate between 1 - 20.
1.4 Language selection Click either “Russian”, “Chinese” or “English” to change the language of the menu. 1 Media 1.1 Video Setup Click "Video". The streaming parameters may now be set in the right side area. The camera can send 2 simultaneous streams. For example, you can send one stream in HD and one in SD so that both PCs and phones may have their own stream resolution. Page 43 of 56 Rev 1.
7) Video Settings 720p120 Allows camera to output 720p at 120fps via the IP Streaming output only. Set to ‘On’ or ‘Off’. (Note: Setting to ‘On’ will override and lockout other video settings). Video format Supports 50HZ(PAL) and 60HZ(NTSC) and Dial Priority (see rotary dial on camera) formats. 60Hz is used for North America. Video Coding You must select both Encode Protocol and Encode Level for H.264. Camera streaming supports either H.
1.2 Image Setup Click “Image”. The image parameters may now be set in the right side area. Brightness Image brightness 0-14. Use the slider control. The box on the right shows the corresponding numerical value. The Default setting is 7. Saturation Color Saturation 0-14. Use the slider control. The box on the right shows the corresponding numerical value. The Default setting is 5. Contrast Contrast 0-14. Use the slider control. The box on the right shows the corresponding numerical value.
Check the “Flip” box to invert the image vertically for a ceiling mount. Check the “Mirror” box to invert the image horizontally. The default setting is unchecked. Apply, Cancel and Default Buttons After adjusting the parameters, press the "Apply" button to save settings. Press the "Cancel" button to cancel the adjustment of the parameters. Press the "Default" button to return to the default value. 1.3 Audio Setup Click “Audio”. The audio parameters may now be set in the right side area.
1.4 System Settings Click “System”. The system parameters may now be set in the right side area. 1) Initialize Work Mode: RTSP (Real Time Streaming Protocol) is the only streaming protocol currently supported. Reboot: Click the "Reboot" button to initiate a system restart. This is required after changing some settings. 2) User User and Password: The user can modify the password (letters and Numbers only).
1.5 Network Settings Click “Network”. The network parameters may now be set in the right side area. 1) LAN Settings IP settings for the device can be set here using either static (fixed) or DHCP (dynamic) addressing as selected from the drop down list. The Default the IP address of the camera is 192.168.100.88. The MAC address can be modified but should be left as set by the factory.
2) Port Settings While the IP address identifies the device, the camera uses multiple ports.
