Preface The SF2012H-D is a 2-megapixel dome camera with 3-axis adjustment and a vari-focal lens that allows you to line up the camera precisely where you need it and capture a wide sweep or close into a narrower specific point. It has both the adjustability to capture the exact target area you require and the technology to keep that area under clear day-and-night surveillance.

Product Installation Monitor Setting 1. Right-click on the desktop. Select “ Properties” 2. Change “Color quality” to “Highest (32-bit)”.
Hardware Installation and I/O Pin Assignment 1. Connect a power adapter and IP camera to PC or local network. 3.5mm Phone Jack (Audio Input, Red) 3.5mm Phone Jack (Audio Output, Green) 2. 3-Axis Gimbals Adjustments Pan: 172° Tilt: 30°~90° Rotation: 180° Once the users open the case, the gimbals adjustment offers the convenience method to install on the wall. The pan, tilt, and rotation are provided in this model.
3. I/O Control Instruction I/O terminal connector – used in application, for e.g., motion detection, event triggering, alarm notifications. It provides the interface to: Digital Input (GND+Alarm) : An alarm input for connecting devices that can toggle between an open and closed circuit, for 1. GND (Ground) : Initial state is LOW 2. Alarm : Max. 50mA, DC 3.3V Example: PIRs, door/window contacts, glass break detectors, etc. When a signal is received the state changes and the input becomes active.
RELAY INSTALLATION EXAMPLE 2 Trigger the “Normal ON” (Normal Close) indoor illumination off when event / motion occur: 8
Power Over Ethernet (PoE) Set up the IP camera through Power over Ethernet (PoE). PoE is a technology that integrates power into a standard LAN infrastructure. It enables power to be provided to the network device, such as an IP camera, using the same cable as that used for network connection. It eliminates the need for power outlets at the camera locations and enables easier application of uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) to ensure 24 hours a day, 7 days a week operation. [Note] 802.3af, 15.
IP Assignment There are two ways to find IP Camera: − Finding IP Camera by using “NXU Lite recording software” − Finding IP Camera by using “IP installer” Finding IP Camera by using “NXU Lite recording software” 1. The NXU Lite software is in the attached software CD. Before launching it, please install the software first. During the installing process, users will be required to input a User name and Password for login NXU Lite system. Users can define the User name and Password as wishes.
3. Click “Setup” button. 4. Click “Add IPCam” button. 5. Select “IP Camera” item.
6. Key in IP Camera’s ID and Password (default is admin/admin) and click “Auto Search” to find camera. 7. In Search Result window, click it the IP camera model that user has purchased (Please ignore ONVIF connection item); the camera is in red text that is configurable. User can double-click on the camera is in red text and configure the IP camera’s setting; even the IP camera is not in the same IP segment. Press “OK” to back to previous screen and press”Connect” to start live view.
Finding IP Camera by using “IP installer” Use the software, “IP Installer” to assign the IP address of the IP camera. The software is in the attached software CD. IP installer supports two languages IPInstallerCht.exe: Traditional Chinese version IPInstallerEng.exe: English version There are 3 kinds of IP configuration. Fixed IP (Public IP or Virtual IP) DHCP (Dynamic IP) DHCP server/router network automatically assigns IP addresses to devices.
IP Installer configuration: IP Installer will search all IP cameras connected on the LAN. The user can click “Search Device” to search again. Click one of the IP cameras listed on the left side. The network configuration for this IP camera will show on the right side. You may change the name of the IP camera to your preference (eg: Office, warehouse) in “Name” on the right side. Using DHCP Server/Router Network To use DHCP, please check DHCP and click “Submit” then click “OK”.
Using NON-DHCP Server/Router Network In Non-DHCP server/router network, the static IP address must be assigned to the device each time when adding another IP camera to the network; the default IP address of the current one must be changed to avoid conflict. Please make sure the Subnet of the PC’s IP address and the IP camera’s IP address are the same. [Example] The same Subnet: IP camera IP address: 192.168.1.200 PC IP address: 192.168.1.100 Different Subnets: IP camera IP address: 192.168.2.
IP camera IP addresses: 1. A quick way to access remote monitoring is to left-click the mouse twice on a selected IP camera in “Device lists” in IP Installer. Upon doing so, the Internet Explorer browser should open.
2. Then, please key in the default “User name” and “Password”, both of which are “admin”.
Install ActiveX Control The first time you attempt to view the camera video via Internet Explorer, it will ask you to install the ActiveX component. If the installation fails, please check the security settings for the Internet Explorer browser. 1. IE Tools Internet Options… Security Tab Custom Level… Security Settings Download unsigned ActiveX controls Select “Enable” or Prompt. 2.
