i3 International M79 User manual

  • Hello! I am a chat assistant familiar with the user manual for the i3 International Fisheye Camera M79. I've reviewed the document detailing its fisheye lens, PoE power, microSD card support, and various installation options. I'm ready to answer your questions about the camera, its setup, and usage based on this manual.
  • What type of power supply does the camera use?
    What is the maximum storage capacity supported by the microSD card slot?
    What is the default IP address of the camera?
    What is the purpose of the rubber plug included in the package?
Thank you for purchasing i3 International’s M79 Fisheye IP dome camera.
M79 is equipped with a fisheye 1.07mm @ F2.5 lens and digital WDR, and supports
h.265 codec compression.
Note: h.265 codec is supported by SRX-Pro v7 and above only. For backwards
compatibility, change the codec to h.264 in the camera’s web settings > Config >
Image > Video/Audio > Video Compression.
SAFETY
When installing your M79 camera be sure to avoid:
• excessive heat, such as direct sunlight or heating appliances
• contaminants such as dust and smoke
• strong magnetic fields
• moisture and humidity
• areas with mechanical vibrations
• fluorescent lamps or objects that reflect light and unstable light sources
• temperatures below -30° C (-22° F) and above 50° C (122° F).
To avoid electrical shock and to preserve the product warranty, DO NOT
disassemble the camera. Refer servicing to qualified personnel only.
POWER SUPPLY
This camera accepts PoE power.
Ensure the supplied voltage meets the power consumption requirements of
this camera (6W) before powering the camera on. Incorrect voltage may cause
irreparable damage to the video camera and will effectively void the camera
warranty.
CLEANING
• For maximum optical clarity, the camera dome or lens must remain clean.
Use a soft, dry cloth to remove finger prints or dust from the dome cover.
• Use a blower to remove dust from the lens.
• Do not use volatile solvents such as alcohol, benzene, or thinners, as they may
damage the surface finishes.

SURFACE INSTALLATION
Start by preparing the mounting surface. Based on installation location and surface type,
supplied screws and anchors may not be adequate.
For pendant or horizontal wall-mounting, purchase the back box (i3 part numbers: B79)
and use a 3/4” NPT pipe or DB60, respectively. Surface installation can be completed
without a back box.

local network (LAN).
To complete a surface mount installation:
