Introduction

1.03

Offering up to six times the denition of analogue cameras, the Dedicated Micros CamVu 2000 Camera is

ideal for situations where high resolution, high quality images are required. The camera’s high denition

technology is based on Dedicated Micros award winning NetVu Connected architecture, allowing seamless

operation and deep integration with a wide range of DVRs and other devices, as well as simplied

integration into large-scale systems

MULTIPLE, SIMULTANEOUS VIDEO STREAMS

Dedicated Micros’ unique Visual Signal Processor (ViSP) allows the CamVu Day/Night dome to transmit

multiple simultaneous MPEG-4 and/ or JPEG images to any number of associated NetVu Connected

devices for image viewing. Each stream can be tailored to suit the viewer’s bandwidth requirements. As

well as steaming, the camera can simultaneously record images to an on-board microSD card or to network

attached storage using ATA over Ethernet.

CLOSED IPTV

The CamVu2000 works seamlessly within Dedicated Micros award winning Closed IPTV solution. Closed

IPTV makes deploying an IP Video system safe, secure and simple. By combining patent-pending innovation

with zeroconf networking technology Closed IPTV removes the need to allocate IP addresses to IP cameras.

Closed IPTV is completely deterministic, automatically discovering and assigning IP cameras to network

ports as required. This ground breaking solution provides a secure answer to video over IP networks -

requiring no prior knowledge of IP network congurations.

ANALYTICS CAPABLE

As part of our growing range of AnalyticsCapable products, the CamVu Day/Night dome is able to contain

the latest analytics solutions from Dedicated Micros including Object Left/Removed Detection Tripwire and

Counting Tripwire, all locally hosted on the camera.

Overview

Step 1 - Mounting the Camera

Securely mount the camera to its bracket or housing via the 1/4-20 UNC threaded hole in its base. The

camera may be mounted inverted as the images can be electronically ‘tipped’ (see Conguring

the Unit->Camera)

IMPORTANT: To avoid damaging internal components, the screw must not project more than 15mm

inside the unit.

Step 2 - Connecting to the Network

Note: If the device utilises POE (Power Over Ethernet), this step should be postponed until all other

devices are connected, refer to ‘Power over Ethernet’ for details on available POE Injector.

The CamVu 2000 supports one RJ45 network port. Use a properly screened Ethernet cable to connect the

unit to the network.

By default the unit is congured for DHCP (Dynamic Host Conguration Protocol). DHCP works on assigning

an IP address at initial connection to the network. It is however possible for this IP address to change

without notication (i.e. in the case of power failure). Therefore it is recommended that the CamVu 2000 is

allocated a xed IP or DNS address to remove the possibility of address change.

Note: Refer to the section ‘Conguring the unit’ for information on nding and setting the IP address

5.13

Step 3 - Connecting Video

The CamVu 2000 has a 75Ω BNC connector congurable for PAL or NTSC which can be used to focus the

lens during installation. The video feed is also sent via the network connection.

Step 4 - Connecting Alarms

The CamVu 2000 supports two EOL (End Of Line) alarm inputs, these are located on the push t connector.

The End Of Line (EOL) functionality is part of the Advanced Alarms supported on NetVu Connected products

and included features required for Central Monitoring and is compatible with the British Standard BS8418.

10

CamVu 2000

DRAFT

Step 5 - Connecting Audio

The CamVu 2000 support a single channel of bi-directional audio, accessible through NetVu ObserVer.

Connect the audio equipment to the 3.5mm stereo socket. The tip of the jack shall be used for audio input.

The following modes of operation are supported:

• Challenge – one way audio, DVR to camera, optionally recorded.

• Listen – one way audio from the camera to the DVR, optionally recorded.

• Help Point – two way audio, optionally recorded.

5.151

Step 6 - Connecting Power

Note: If the device utilises POE, this step would not be necessary. Connect the Network connector at

this stage, refer to ‘Power over Ethernet’ for details on available POE Injector.

The CamVu 2000 is supplied by a two way 3.81mm pitch screw terminal push t connector, separate to the

alarm connector.

Conguring the Unit

Using the Unit with Secure Closed IPTV

1) Connect the camera to a Closed IP Network switch using Cat5 network cable. The POE version

of this camera will work with the DM/NSW/CPP model switch. The non POE version of the

switch works with the DM/NSW/CP model switch. The POE version will also work with DM/

NSW/CP model switch if connected to a POE injector and separate power supply.

2) Ensure that the Closed IP NVR or Console that the switch is connected to is in Conguration

mode to allow new cameras connect.

3) Power up the camera and wait for the on-screen acknowledgement on the monitor attached

to the Closed IP NVR or Console. Alternatively check the Camera Overview web page on the

Closed IP NVR or Console to determine out the camera status.

4) Once the camera has been detected and added, remember to secure the switch by moving out

of Conguration mode, failure to do this will leave the Closed IPTV system unsecured.

Locating the Unit IP address for cameras on general networks (non Closed IP)

The unit is congured using on-board webpages. This can be done remotely once the unit has been installed

in its chosen location, using the web browser on a PC in the same subnet as the unit.

The unit web pages can be accessed using the unit IP address or DNS name. The unit has DHCP factory

enabled. When the unit is connected to a DHCP network for the rst time, an IP address is automatically

assigned by the network switch or router it is connected to. Most routers will have the facility to enable

DHCP and DNS, if it is not available, contact your network administrator.

The default DNS address for each unit is factory set as the serial number. This address can be found on the

serial label on the unit or via the packaging the unit came in.

If DHCP and DNS are not available, the IP address can be found by connecting an analogue monitor to

the BNC connection of the camera. The unit IP address is displayed on the analogue video output for 10

minutes from powering the unit on.

The DNS or IP address can be typed directly into the address bar of a web browser.

Note: If subsequently the unit is assigned a xed IP address, its DNS address can no longer

be used

Note: The unit’s DNS address can be changed subsequently to something more memorable

or meaningful than its serial number by editing the System name option in the System

conguration page.

CamVu 2000

Zero_conf conguration

If a permanent IP address is not assigned to the unit, it will attempt to contact the DHCP server every

time it starts up, and periodically thereafter. The unit support zero-conguration networking (sometimes

known as Bonjour), this enables automatic discovery of computers, devices, and services on IP networks.

Zero-conguration uses industry standard IP protocols to allow devices to automatically discover each

other without the need to enter IP addresses or congure DNS servers. By loading a suitable free add-on

to your web browser such as Bonjour for Windows for Internet Explorer or BonjourFoxy for FireFox zero

conguration devices such as this unit can easily be discovered and accessed.

Accessing the Conguration Web Pages

The unit is congured using the on-board web pages. To access these:

1. Launch a web browser, preferably on a PC on the same subnet as the unit.

6.12

2. Type the IP address (or DNS name if there is no xed IP address) of the unit into the address

bar.

3. If prompted, enter a username and password. The default settings are;

username:dm and password:web.

4. The Main Menu page will be displayed.

The conguration menus are accessible via the link on the left hand side of the page.

The Time and Date page allows the unit time and date settings to be adjusted, including setting

the timezone.

The Serial Ports page allows the serial port to be congured for debug purposes.

The Audio page shows the settings available for the audio channel and allows conguration of audio quality.

The Features page allows control of the different features that are available within the software including

Email reporting and control of the display resolution.

The Maintain page allows the current conguration to be saved, and for previously saved settings to

be loaded.
