WPS-300-DOM-IP Installation Manual

2. Introduction

Thank you for purchasing a Wirepath™ IP Surveillance camera. The WPS-300-DOM-IP is an indoor camera designed for mounting

to any ceiling for easy monitoring over a web or smartphone interface.

We recommend that this document be read in its entirety before proceeding with system design, installation, or operation of the

camera.

NOTE: This camera is recommended for ceiling mounting only. Wall mounting will limit the ability of the camera image to be leveled

after aiming.

2.1. Features

• 1/4" 1MP CMOS Sensor

Advanced CMOS sensor provides improved picture quality over a typical CCD sensor. Supports full 720p HD (1280x720) at

30FPS.

• 2.8mm, F1.8 Mega Pixel Fixed Lens

High-quality lens with 1.8 aperture for low-light image quality.

• H.264/ MJPEG Quadruple Stream Optimization

Supports up to 4 simultaneous streams of compression typically used for the following situations:

• High Res stream optimized for NVR Record or Local Network viewing

• Lower Res stream optimized for Remote viewing

• Lower Res stream optimized for Control Systems (same res as Stream 2)

• Low Res stream for Mobile Viewing

• IR up to 15 ft

• True Day/Night (IR Cut Filter)

For more accurate, vivid color reproduction during daytime use, an IR Cut lter is automatically moved over the lens to block

unwanted IR. At night, the lter is removed to deliver maximum visibility and clear IR illumination.

• Advanced Image Processing

Advanced DSP (Digital Signal Processor) to improve image quality including:

• Sense Up: Automatically slows the shutter speed to improve image quality in low light.

• D-WDR (Digital Wide Dynamic Range): Provides clearer images and even lighting in applications that are

simultaneously bright and dark. This is particularly useful in areas with windows and lots of natural light.

• 2D and 3D Digital Noise Reduction (DNR): Intelligently scans the image and reduces noise in low-lux conditions for a

cleaner, crisper image.

• Privacy Mask

Block out sensitive or privileged areas by placing rectangular blocks or “masks” over up to three installer-dened areas.

• Power Over Ethernet (PoE IEEE 802.3af)

Camera can be powered by PoE using the same Cat5e/Cat6 cable that connects to the network. No need to pull a second

power cable to the location. Compatible with all PoE network switches that support PoE IEEE 802.3af and PoE power injectors.

WPS-300-DOM-IP Installation Manual

How Does IP Video Surveillance Work?

Wirepath™ IP cameras use a digital image processor to capture video in a stream of packets that are broadcast over an Ethernet

network. These packets can be received by several devices at once, including local PCs, mobile devices, and recorders (NVRs) on

the same network, or even off the network (with the correct setup and web access).

Users can see live camera views and recorded footage through the interface of their choice. Wirepath Surveillance offers apps for

iOS

devices, Android

smartphones, Windows PC, and Mac computers. Drivers are also available for integration with popular

control systems.

Access and Use

For local network (LAN) access, a static IP address is assigned to the camera in the network router. The user enters this address

into a PC, smartphone, or other device connected to the LAN, and logs in using a customizable username and password.

For access outside the LAN, a port is forwarded to the camera in the network router settings and a DDNS address is set up in the

camera. This enables the same streams from the camera to be accessed from anywhere in the world over an Internet connection.

To record footage, a NVR is connected to the network and congured to capture video from cameras. No dedicated cables are

required to connect the camera to the NVR.

WPS-300-DOM-IP Installation Manual

6. Camera Connections

Wirepath™ Surveillance IP Cameras can be powered by Power over Ethernet (PoE) through the Cat5e/Cat6 Ethernet connection.

This method is recommended because it limits the amount of wiring required, reducing installation cost and time. The camera must

be connected to a compatible PoE-equipped router/switch or a PoE injector for this PoE power to work.

1. Ethernet Connection (RJ45) — Connect to network switch for communication to and from the camera. If the network port

supports PoE standard IEEE 802.3af, power can be provided on the Cat5e/6 connection.

2. 12V DC Power In — Connect to a 12V DC power supply if PoE is not being used. A power supply is not included with the

camera. A pigtail is included so that power supply wiring may be extended to the camera. The pigtail wires are labelled to

ensure proper polarity of the positive (+) and negative (-) wires.

Warning! Use only a 12V DC power supply with this camera. Higher voltages or AC current will cause permanent damage

that is not covered by the warranty.

6.1. Network Cable Recommendation (PoE and non-PoE)

• Cable Type: Cat5e/6

• Max Length: 100 meters (328 feet)

• Termination: EIA/TIA 568B recommended

6.2. Choosing the Right Network Equipment

Streaming content from IP Cameras requires more bandwidth than most IP devices. We recommend using 1Gbps routers and

switches to maintain a high quality streaming image. To reduce trafc on the overall network, we also recommend that all IP

surveillance devices be connected to a dedicated 1Gbps switch or VLAN.

6.3. PoE Requirements- IEEE 802.3af

Cameras must be connected to a PoE injector (inline PoE power supply) or a PoE-equipped port of a network router or switch built

to IEEE 802.3af standards. Consider installing a dedicated PoE switch specically for IP cameras on the network to avoid issues

relating to power shortage.

• Minimum requirement for PoE ports:

• Voltage: 44V DC

• Wattage: 15.4W

• Amperage: 350mA

6.4. Wiring Installation

A. Run a Cat5e/6 cable from the network port to the camera location and terminate both ends to EIA/TIA 568B.

B. (Non-PoE applications) Run wiring to the camera from the power supply location. Use the voltage drop calculator at www.

SnapAV.com to determine the wire size needed.

C. (Non-PoE applications) Connect the power supply to the wire at the head end and the adapter to the wire at the camera

location using electrical connectors (not included). Be sure to use the correct polarity.

D. (Non-PoE applications) Connect the power supply to a suitable outlet and test the voltage at the camera side of the wire using

a volt meter. Disconnect the power supply from the outlet until indicated.

9.2.2. Camera Time Setup

Important! Wirepath™ Surveillance strongly recommends using the “NTP” time setting option unless Internet

access is not available from the camera network. Other settings may not keep the correct time after power

outages or other failures.

9.2.2.1. NTP Time

Network Time Protocol (NTP) Servers are computers on the Internet that provide reliable time and date values for other equipment.

NTP values are synchronized to be accurate to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). Using NTP for time synchronization ensures

the most accurate time possible for recorded footage. This setting should be used as long as the camera can access the Internet at

least some of the time.

NTP Server

Default setting is pool.ntp.org, the most widely used NTP server. Change the server only if directed to

do so by the network administrator.

Update

Select how often to check for time updates from the drop-down. Do not set the value to “None” or the

camera will never update if the time becomes inaccurate. Selection 1-48 hours. Default: 6 hours.

Time Shift Shift the camera time forward or behind by any number of minutes from the NTP time. Default: 0.
