Hardware installation
Before installing multiple Network Cameras at the well-chosen locations, the
administrator should memorize the serial numbers on the packages respectively for
future use.
Cable connection
Shut down all the peripheral devices prior to connection. Connect the supplied cables
from Network Camera to related devices according to the above diagram. Note that the
power adaptor must be kept unplugged until other cables are firmly connected.
Power on
Make sure all cables are correctly and firmly connected before turning on Network
Camera. Turn on cameras, sensors, alarm devices, and then attach the power adaptor of
Network Camera to the electric power socket*. After the POST (power-on self test) is
complete and the result is successful, Network Camera is ready for software
configuration as described in this manual. At this stage, network speed and video
modulation type are automatically detected. If the detection of video modulation fails,
administrators may change the setting on the configuration page. Refer to the
configuration section for further information.
