Mounting Template

There are two ways to power a MEGApix® 1080p™

camera.

Use a PoE-enabled switch to connect data and power through a single

cable to begin viewing and recording images instantly. A non-PoE switch

will require an adaptor for power transmission.

1. Using a PoE-Enabled Switch

The MEGApix® 1080p™ Camera is PoE-Compliant, allowing transmission of power and data

via a single Ethernet cable. PoE eliminates the need for the different cables used to power,

record, or control the camera. Follow the illustration below to connect the camera to a PoE-

enabled switch using an Ethernet cable.

2. Using 12VDC

If a PoE injector is not available, use a power adaptor for power transmission and a non-PoE

switch for data transmission. Follow the illustrations below to connect the camera without a PoE

Injector.

NETWORK CONNECTION*

8

 Make sure the device in the package is in good condition and all the assembly parts are

included.

 The standard power supply is 12V DC, please make sure your power supply matches with

your camera.

 Make sure all the related equipment is power-off during the installation.

 Check the specification of the products for the installation environment.

 Make sure that the wall is strong enough to withstand four times the weight of the camera

and the bracket.

 For the camera that supports IR, you are required to pay attention to the following

precautions to prevent IR reflection:

 Dust or grease on the dome cover will cause IR reflection. Please do not remove the dome

cover film until the installation is finished. If there is dust or grease on the dome cover,

clean the dome cover with clean soft cloth and isopropyl alcohol.

 Make sure that there is no reflective surface too close to the camera lens. The IR light from

the camera may reflect back into the lens causing reflection.

 The foam ring around the lens must be seated flush against the inner surface of the bubble

to isolate the lens from the IR LEDS. Fasten the dome cover to camera body so that the

foam ring and the dome cover are attached seamlessly.

the installation.

Installing the Camera’s Angle

Installing DW IP Finder™ Software

DW IP Finder™ searches for all available Digital Watchdog devices

currently connected to your network.

1. Install DW IP Finder to find the MEGApix® 1080p™ camera on your local network. The

software can be found on the included User Manual CD. Run DW IP Finder and install onto

your PC.

2. When setup is complete, launch DW IP Finder.

3. The software will automatically search your network for all Digital Watchdog® supported

devices. Your camera will appear as ”DWC-MBH2i4WV.”

4. Double-click on the camera name and select ‘View Camera Website’ to launch the camera’

web viewer.

*Install the DW IP Finder to a computer located on the same Subnet Mask as the MEGApix®

1080p™ camera.

11

DW IP Finder™ *

Using DW IP Finder™ Software

Use DW IP Finder™ to change the basic settings of your MEGApix®

1080p™ camera, update firmware for multiple cameras simultaneously

or connect to your MEGApix® 1080p™ camera.

DW IP Finder™ *

Using IP Finder Software

Use IP Finder to set the connection type and the IP address information

for your MEGApix® 1080p™ camera.

1. DHCP: Select DHCP to access the camera within the same internal network. For further

explanation on DHCP, please see page 16.

2. Static IP: Select Static to connect to the camera from an external network. For further

explanation on Static, please see page 16.

DHCP

The Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) is a network configuration protocol that allows a

device to configure automatically according to the network it is connected to.

If your network supports DHCP and your MEGApix® 1080p™ camera is set to DHCP, IP Finder

will automatically find and set your MEGApix® 1080p™ camera to correspond with your network

requirements.

Static

Static IP addresses are recommended when using a network that does not support DHCP or when

setting your device to be accessed externally via the internet. If Static is selected, you must

manually enter the correct network settings for your MEGApix® 1080p™ camera. The settings will

correspond with your network. To set your camera to a static IP address, we recommend that you

(1) setup the camera to DHCP, (2) allow it to configure itself according to your network, and (3)

change the settings to a static IP address.

1. To set your MEGApix® 1080p™ camera to Static, highlight the desired device from the

search results list, and click on Configuration. In the “Network Configuration” window, make

sure Static is selected.

2. Enter the following information: IP Address, Netmask, Gateway, and Preferred DNS.

3. Click Apply and Reboot to save all changes.

2. In the Firmware Upload section, browse and select the appropriate firmware file to use.

3. Select all the cameras you would like to upgrade. You can select multiple cameras by clicking

on multiple camera models while holding down the Ctrl button*.

4. Click ‘Update Cameras’.

5. The system will indicate if the upgrade was successful or not for each camera.

6. When all cameras have been upgraded, restart the cameras to apply the new firmware.

7. Allow up to 60 seconds for the cameras to reboot and press the ‘Search’ button. If the

cameras reappear in the IP Finder the reboot is complete and the camera is ready.
