Part Two Installation Instruction

1.Installation Environment

Before installation, please check if the environmental temperature, humidity,

cleanliness, radio frequency, surge protection; be sure it meets the requirements,

check if the power supply is safe.

(1) Anti-static

Keep suitable temperature and humidity conditions

(2) radio frequency

 Keep the night vision camera far away from the radio transmitters, radar

transmitters and other high-frequency devices

 Adopts electromagnetic shield when necessary

(3) Surge Protection

 The lines’ lightning-proof design must be considered integrated with the

building lighting-proof requirements, and must comply with the national

standards and industry standards.

 The ground system must meet the both radio frequency and electrical safety

requirements, and must not short connect or mixed connect to the electrical

network zero curve.

 When the system connect GND separately, the grounding resistance must

be less than 4Ω, grounding conductor cross-sectional area must be more

than 25mm²Water-proof

 External lines must be connected to the aviation plug firmly to proof water in,

or the camera will be damaged.

(4) Weight Support

The night vision camera needs to use pole or bracket to support its weight, so

User must make sure the pole or arm may withstand the weight more than 20kg.

Part Three Operation Introduction

1.Function Introduction

1．Thermal image system

a. It adopts passive thermal imaging technology, imaging clearly, excellent

hiding feature, not restricted by light source.

b. Thermal Camera may be set up via menu, to change color palettes,

realize zooming etc. And the settings will not be lost when power off.

c. Double Video output, CCTV and Thermal Camera can output

simultaneously, User may see the visual and thermal images at the

same time.

2．Low illumination color to black CCTV camera

a. The function of camera may be set via menu.

b. Automatic switch between color and black/white: when the ICR SHOT is

AUTO, and light outside is higher than set, the camera is in a state of

“color”; Also, when the light outside is lower than set, the camera will

automatically change into a state of “black/white”.

c. Zoom rate adjust: User may move the lens “NEAR” or “FAR” to adjust

image.

d. Focal length automatic adjusts: camera uses image identity technology

to achieve automatic focus.

e. Back light compensation: when the background is dark or unclear, User

may open the back light compensation.

f. White balance: Users may choose the best imaging mode when image

color distortion (there are six mode to choose) 1, indoor mode 2, outdoor

mode 3, one push mode 4, white balance automatic following mode ATW

5, manual mode 6, automatic mode

g. Low illumination set: Usually camera is in a state of automatic working;

when environment brightness is lower than 1Lux, it will automatically

change to zero level, which is also set manually.

h. User may also use menu to set other functions of the camera

9

3．Integrated full range pan-tilt

a. Pan rotate 360º, tilt rotate -90º～90º

b. Pan rotate may realize 0～50°/s continuous shift adjust, tilt rotate may

realize 0～50°/s continuous shift adjust

c. Low speed steady rotate, little noise, clear and steady image

d. Reach full range no spot monitoring, exact orientation be ±0. 1°.

4．High Intelligence

a. May save at most 128 pre-setting points

b. Pan scanning between two points. User may choose the scanning speed

and direction. Thermal camera could scan about 180°between two points

via menu.

c. Six tracking paths may be programmed: Each path has 20 pre-setting

points. User may separately set staying time between two points.

d. Self-inspection function: The system may remember the PTZ paths in 40

seconds and imitate; it may finish the action according to User's

operation; and data saves when power off.

e. Character adding function: Screen may show camera’s address and

number of presets.

f. Short/Long focal length shift function. The night vision camera may adjust

its pan/tilt shifting speed automatically according to the focal length. The

larger magnification the slower shifting speed, to make sure an accurate

search and lock the target; the smaller magnification the faster shifting

speed, to make sure find the target.
