Step 2. Install the camera
The camera includes hardware to install it directly to a mounting surface, onto a double-gang box, or
recessed within a ceiling (or wall). Camera drop cables can be routed through the conduit port on the side
of the base, through the mounting surface or into an electrical box, if used. To install the camera:
1. Remove the dome assembly by loosening the three captive dome screws using the security
L-wrench provided.
2. Loosen the four captive camera assembly mounting screws, and then lift the camera assembly out
of the base.
3. To mount the camera, do one of the following:
To mount the camera directly onto a mounting surface
1. Determine the best fasteners for securing the camera to mounting surface. The mounting hardware
provided is suitable for most surfaces.
2. Using the Drill Template provided, mark the location of the mounting screw holes. If the drop cable
will be routed through the mounting surface, mark the location of the hole for the camera drop
cables.
3. Drill holes for the mounting fasteners, and for the drop cable where needed. If using the sponge
seal, also drill holes in the sponge seal where the mounting screw holes will be.
4. Place the sponge seal, if needed, between the base and the mounting surface, and then attach the
base to the mounting surface.
5. Route extension cables from the power source and LAN switch (or LAN with PoE), and peripheral
devices for the left (or microphone) and right audio channels, and alarm input and output devices
into the base.
To mount the camera onto an electrical box
1. Install a double-gang electrical box at the location where the camera will be installed.
2. Route extension cables from the power source and LAN switch (or LAN with PoE), and peripheral
devices for the left (or microphone) and right audio channels, and alarm input and output devices
into the electrical box, and then up through the cable access hole in the bottom of the base.
3. Attach the base to the electrical box using appropriate screws (4).
To mount the camera recessed into the mounting surface
In a recessed mounting conguration, the body of the camera is within the mounting surface. Only the
camera dome is visible.
1. Use the drill template for recessed mounting to mark the location of the mounting screw holes and
the hole for the camera assembly, and then drill or cut out the surface as needed.
2. Route extension cables from the power source and LAN switch (or LAN with PoE), and peripheral
devices for the left (or microphone) and right audio channels, and alarm input and output devices to
the mounting location.
3. Remove the captive camera assembly mounting screws (3) from the camera assembly.
Step 3. Connect camera drop cables to peripherals, LAN and

2. Connect the Ethernet LAN cable to the camera LAN drop cable. Protect the connection from
moisture and other contamination, if necessary. A weatherproof tting is provided.
3. If the camera is not powered using PoE (Power over Ethernet injector), connect the 12 Vdc power
extension cable to the power drop cable terminals. The polarity of the drop cable connector
terminals is indicated by the label on the connector.
CAUTION
Do not apply power to the camera at this time. Before applying power to the camera, ensure that
the polarity is correct. An incorrect connection may cause a malfunction and can damage the
camera.
4. Secure the camera assembly to the base (or mounting surface if recessed mounting) using the
appropriate screws.

5. Apply power to the camera through the 12 Vdc power cable or PoE injector, as congured.
NOTE: Do not reattach the dome assembly at this time.
Step 4. Install the Alibi Discover Tool
The Alibi Discover Tool is a software utility used to “discover” Alibi cameras and NVRs/DVRs installed on the
LAN and change their network settings. The tool is provided on the CD with your camera. To use the tool:
1. Insert the software CD provided with your camera into an optical drive on the Microsoft Windows
computer you will use to access your camera on the LAN.
2. On the CD, nd the folder that contains the Alibi Discover Tool.
3. Copy the les in the folder to a new directory on your computer. The les should appear as shown in
the directory shown below.
4. To open the Alibi Discover Tool, double click the le Alibi Discover Tool.exe. The tool will
automatically discover Alibi cameras and recorders installed on the network.
In the screen shown above, an ALI-IPV5030RMH camera was discovered. This camera, although
installed on a subnet other than the one implied by its IP address is shown, is still found by the tool.
5. To change the network settings of the camera to be compatible with the subnet where it is installed,
do the following:
a. Click the device to highlight it. Notice that the network parameters are populated in the frame
on the right.
b. Modify the network settings to values compatible with the subnet where it is installed.
c. Enter the admin password for the device in the password eld. By default, the admin user
password for Alibi cameras is 1111.
d. Click the Save button. The new IP address, port, and other settings will appear in the list with
the device you modied.
6. Close the Alibi Discover Tool by clicking the Close icon ( T ) in the upper-right corner of the screen.
Step 5. Remote login
To access the camera from a computer on the LAN:
1. Open your Microsoft Internet Explorer browser on your compute and enter the IP address of the
camera in the URL eld. In the example below, the IP address of the camera is 192.168.75.76.
