During installation:

• Camera Lens: Handle the camera carefully to prevent scratching or soiling the lens. If the lens or IR

array shield becomes soiled, clean it only with approved products. See the

Cleaning section.

• Camera drop cable: The camera drop cable includes two connectors:

— Video BNC connector: For transmission of the video signal across a coax (75 Ω) extension

cable to an HD-TVI or CVBS compatible recorder.

— Power connector: When applying power, observe the power polarity. See the picture to the

right for the connector polarity conguration.

These cameras can be mounted on a wall or ceiling that has sucient strength to support it. The video/

power drop cable from the camera can be routed either through mounting surface or through a cable

channel on the edge of the mounting plate.

1. Unscrew the bezel from the mounting plate, and then lift it o of the camera.

2. Separate the housing and the camera module from the mounting plate.

3. Using the mounting template or the mounting plate, mark the holes for the camera mounting

screws.

4. Drill holes for the screws that anchor the plate to the mounting surface. The mounting hardware

provided is appropriate for most surfaces. However, depending on the surface material and strength,

more appropriate fasteners may be required.

5. Drill a 3/4” hole through the mounting surface for the drop cable, if necessary.

6. If using wall inserts for the mounting screws, install the wall inserts at this time.

7. Attach the mounting plate the surface using the appropriate fasteners. If the camera drop cable will

route through a cable channel, lay the cable in the channel before tightening the mounting screws.

ALI-CD1720EC HD-TVI/CVBS Turret

Camera Quick Installation Guide

The ALIBI ALI-CD1720EC turret camera include a high sensitivity sensor and advanced circuit design

technology. They feature high resolution, low image distortion and low noise features which makes them

suitable for surveillance and image processing systems.

Features

• Hardware congurable HD-TVI or CVBS output

• HD-TVI technology transmits zero latency HD video resolution over coax cabling

• 1280 x 720 (720p @ 30 fps) HD video using HD-TVI for sharp, detailed images,

or 1000 TVL CVBS video

• 3.6 mm lens captures images over a large area

• Built-in 24 LEDs enables the camera to see up to 65 ft in the dark

• Smart IR technology reduces over-exposure of the IR LEDs at the center of the image

• True day/night (ICR) captures sharp, clear images in low light and at night

• -40°F ~ 140°F extreme temperature operating range

• IP66 weather-rated ABS housing

What’s in the box

• Camera assembly

• Mounting screws and wall inserts

• This manual

• Drill template

What you need

• 12 Vdc power source. See Specications for

voltage and wattage requirements.

• Tools and additional fasteners (may be required)

for mounting the camera

• Video and power extension cable

• HD-TVI or CVBS video setup monitor (optional)

Installation

Before installation:

• Check the specication of the products for the installation environment.

• Make sure that the wall or the ceiling is strong enough to withstand 3 times the weight of the camera.

• To avoid re or shock hazard, use only UL listed power supplies. Verify that the power supply will

provide the rated voltage and wattage for the camera. See the Specica tions section.

8. If the drop cable will route through a hole in the mounting surface, route the cable through the hole,

and then reassemble the camera on the mounting plate. Tighten the bezel only enough to hold the

assembly together, but do not tighten the bezel.

9. Connect the camera drop cable to video and power extension cables.

10. Connect the CVBS leads to a toggle switch, if needed, or short them together for CVBS output at the

BNC connector. Seal the wires to protect from moisture.

11. Connect the other end of the video extension cable to a HD-TVI compatible (or CVBS, if congured)

video monitoring device, such as a HD-TVI digital video recorder (DVR).

NOTE

Drop cable connectors are not waterproof.

12. Connect the other end of the power extension cable to a 12 Vdc power source. Observe the polarity

of the cable shown in the photo on page 1 of this guide.

13. Rotate the camera module so that the light sensor is at the bottom of the IR array, if necessary.

14. While observing video from the camera on a monitor, aim the camera at your surveillance target.

See the gure below for adjustment ranges.

Cleaning

Clean the camera glass with an approved glass cleaning solution and a lint free cloth.

• Dust can be removed from the unit by wiping it with a soft damp cloth. To remove stains, gently rub

the surface with a soft cloth moistened with a mild detergent solution, then rinse and dry it with a

soft cloth.

• Remove all foreign particles, such as plastic or rubber materials, attached to the camera housing.

These may cause damage to the surface over time.

CAUTION



Do not use benzene, thinner or other chemical products on the camera assembly; these may

dissolve the paint and promote damage of the surfaces. Before using any chemical product,

carefully follow the accompanying instructions.

Troubleshooting

Problem Possible Cause

Nothing appears on the screen - Check the power connection.

- Check the video signal cable connection to the monitor.

The video image is dim or not clear. - If the camera lens is dirty, clean it with a soft, clean cloth.

- Adjust the monitor controls, if necessary.

- If the camera is facing a very strong light, change the camera position.

The screen is dark. - Adjust the contrast control of the monitor.

- Set the monitor impedance properly for the DVR (usually 75 Ω /Hi-Z),

and check the cable connections.

The camera is not working properly and the

surface of the camera is hot.

- Verify that the camera is correctly connected to an appropriate regulated

power source.

The image on the monitor ickers - Make sure that the camera isn’t facing direct sunlight or uorescent light.

If necessary,change the camera position.
