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 and 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.
INSTALLATION*

Adjusting the Camera’s Angle
Installing DW IP Finder™ Software
DW IP Finder™ searches for all available Digital Watchdog devices
currently connected to your network.

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-MVH2i4WV.”
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.

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.

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.
