Step 3. Wiring the Camera
1. While mounting the camera, pass the PoE Port and DV12V Port cable, which penetrates from the mounting bracket,
through the hole of mounting surface or place it by the side hole of the mounting bracket as the following figures
shown depending on your dierent applications.
2. Connect an Ethernet cable terminated with the RJ-45 connector with the PoE Port of the camera and make sure the
other end of the Ethernet cable connects with a PoE compatible network device that supplies power with networking
capability. Also, connect DC12V power source wires to the DC12V port if necessary. Pay attention to the polarities when

3.3.1 Default IP address
Since this is a network-based unit, an IP address must be assigned at the very first. The unit’s default IP address is
192.168.1.30 and sub mask is 255.255.255.0. However, if you have a DHCP server in your network, the unit would obtain
an IP address automatically from the DHCP server so that you don’t need to change the camera’s IP address. But be sure to
enable DHCP in "Network Settings".
3.3.2 Connecting from a computer & Viewing Preparation
Connecting from a computer
1. Make sure the unit and your computer are in the same subnet.
2. Check whether if the networking available between the unit and the computer by executing ping the default IP address.
To do this, simply start a command prompt (Windows: from the Start Menu, select Program. Then select Accessories
and choose Command Prompt.), and type “Ping 192.168.1.30”. If the message “Reply from…” appears, it means the
connection is available.
3. Start a browser e.g. Internet Explorer and enter IP address: 192.168.1.30. A login window should pop up. In the window,
enter the default user name: admin, password: 1234 and select a user interface language to log in.
Further administration on the unit can be found in “4. Administration and Conguration".

4 Administration and Conguration
4.1 Live View
Figure 4 - 1: First Login Page
After accessing and login to the IP address of camera, the screen will be shown as the screenshot above. There’re 2 main
options on the upper left side: “Live View” and “Conguration”. The upper right corner, on the other hand, indicates the
current user level and the “Logout” option allows user, by clicking, to log out. In addition, the dropdown menu beside the
Conguration is for UI language switch. We mainly focus on Live View part in this chapter and will detail Conguration in the
“3.2 Conguration” chapter later.
Figure 4 - 2: Live View

After clicking “Live View”, user will be led to a real-time live view image. The “Stream1, 2, 3” are available for user to switch
among each stream conguration for better adaptation in varied applications, for which you may refer to the latter chapter
“3.2.1 Encode” for details. And the other appeared dropdown menu above live view image is for VA performances display on
live view, for which you may refer to “3.2.9 Video Analytics” for more detailed settings; while the “Enable Object Detection”
check box is invented for activating moving objects detection under each VA function, the performance by which will be,
when enabled, a blue frame encircles moving object within eld of view to indicate moving object is being subtly sensed by
surveillance camera.
The following icons within the table, which are in the left-side window and on the top of Live View screen, are for several
functions activation and statuses indication. Please refer to the detailed denitions below for more understanding.
Icon Denition
The “Snapshot” button is for taking a snapshot saved in a user-preferred le path.
The “Full Screen” button is for users to display a full screen live view display. (Press Esc to
back)
The “Manual Recording” button is for users to activate recording function.
The icon on the upper-right corner indicates live view video is being recorded.
The “Zoom Control” button, which is limited for only MBL030A-ORZ0310 Series models,
is for users to manipulate zoom magnication. Place the mouse cursor over the live view
scree followed by using the scroll wheel to perform zoom in or zoom out.
The adjustable bar of “Live View Jitter Buer Length” is for user to dene a value by the
unit of millisecond (ms) ranging from 0 to 1000 in order to lessen the negative video delay
effect raised from network issues, e.g. unstable connection, thus striking a balance to
compromise between real-time and smooth image quality.
