When using a PoE hub, disconnect the LAN cable from the cam-era. When using an external power supply, disconnect the 2P power cable plug from the camera.2 Turn on the power of the camera while holding down the INITIAL SET button, and then keepholding down the button for 5 seconds or more. About 2 minutes later, the camera will start upand the settings including the network settings will be initialized.Turn off each system’s power supply before making a connection. Before making connections,prepare the required peripheral devices and cables.IMPORTANT:● When the camera is initialized, the settings including the network settings will be initialized.Note that the CRT key (SSL encryption key) used for the HTTPS protocol will not be initialized.● Before initializing the settings, it is recommended to write down the settings in advance.● Do not turn off the power of the camera during the process of initialization. Otherwise, itmay fail to initialize and may cause malfunction.IMPORTANT:● Use all 4 pairs (8 pins) of the LAN cable (category 5 or better, straight, STP).● The maximum cable length is 100 m {328 feet}.● Make sure that the PoE device in use is compliant with IEEE802.3af standard.● When connecting both the 12 V DC power supply and the PoE device for powersupply, 12 V DC will be used for power supply*.* If a 12 V DC power supply and a PoE hub or router are used at the same time,network connections may not be possible. In this case, disable the PoE settings.Refer to the operating instructions of the PoE hub or router in use.* Depending on the PoE device used, if you stop the 12 V DC power supply afteroperating it and a PoE hub or router at the same time, the power supply may stop,causing the camera to restart.● When the LAN cable is disconnected once, reconnect the cable after around 2 seconds.When the cable is quickly reconnected, the power may not be supplied from the PoEdevice.● When cables are used outdoors, there is a chance that they may be affected bylightning. In this case, install a lightning arrester just before where the cables con-nect to the camera.Connect a LAN cableWaterproof treatment for the cable joint sectionsWhen connecting to a network using a PoE hubMicrophone/line input cableConnect a stereo mini plug (ø3.5 mm).● Input impedance: Approx. 2 kΩ (unbalanced)● Recommended cable length: Less than 1 m {3.28 feet} (for microphone input)Less than 10 m {32.8 feet} (for line input)● Recommended microphone: Plug-in power type (option)•Supply voltage: 2.5 V ±0.5 V•Recommended sensitivity of microphone: -48 dB ±3 dB (0 dB=1 V/Pa,1 kHz)● Input level for the line input: Approx. -10 dBVIMPORTANT:● Be sure to use the H 4P alarm cable (accessory) provided with this product.● Install external devices so that they do not exceed the ratings above.● When using the external I/O terminals as the output terminals, ensure they do notcause signal collision with external signals.Connect the alarm input/output cable• ALARM IN1(DAY/NIGHT IN), ALARM IN2, ALARM IN3Input specification: No-voltage make contact input (4 V - 5 V DC, internally pulled up)OFF: Open or 4 V - 5 V DCON: Make contact with GND (required drive current: 1 mA or more)• ALARM OUT, AUX OUTOutput specification: Open collector output (maximum applied voltage: 20 V DC)Open: 4 V - 5 V DC by internal pull-upClose: Output voltage 1 V DC or less (maximum drive current: 50 mA)* The default of EXT I/O terminals is “Off”.Connect an external amplifier-embedded speaker to the audio/monitoroutput cableConnect a stereo mini plug (ø3.5 mm).*● Output impedance: Approx. 600 Ω (unbalanced)● Recommended cable length: Less than 10 m {32.8 feet}● Output level: -20 dBV (can switch to monitor output)IMPORTANT:● Connect/disconnect the audio cables and turn on the power of the camera after turn-ing off the power of the audio output devices. Otherwise, loud noise may be heardfrom the speaker.● Make sure that the stereo mini plug is connected to this cable. When a monaural miniplug is connected, audio may not be heard.When connecting a monaural speaker with amplifier, use a locally procured conver-sion cable (mono-stereo).Adequate waterproof treatment is required for the cables when installing the camera with cablesexposed or installing it under the eaves. The camera body is waterproof, but the cable ends arenot waterproof.Be sure to use the supplied waterproof tape at the points where the cables are connected to ap-ply waterproof treatment in the following procedure. Failure to observe this or use of a tape otherthan the provided waterproof tape (such as a vinyl tape) may cause water leakage resulting inmalfunction.Before starting the installation, check the entire system configuration. The following illustrationgives a wiring example of how to connect the camera to the network via a PoE device (hub). <Alarm input/output cable, power cable, microphone/line input cable, audio/monitor output cable >Wind the tape in ahalf-overlapping manner.Wind the tape in ahalf-overlappingmanner.Wind the tape in ahalf-overlapping manner.Wind the tape in ahalf-overlappingmanner.IMPORTANT:How to wind the supplied waterproof tape● Also waterproof the I 2P power cable (accessory),H 4P alarm cable (accessory), and external connec-tions in the same way.● Stretch the tape to approx. twice its length (see theillustration) and wind it around the cable. Insufficienttape stretch causes insufficient waterproofing.● To prevent the LAN cable hook from coming looseeasily, fit the J LAN cable cover (accessory) onto thepigtail cable as illustrated, and then slide it in thedirection indicated by the arrow.The connector of the LAN cable used with this cam-era must meet the following restrictions.Height when inserted (From bottom to hook.):Max. 16 mm {5/8 inches}Connector width: Max. 14 mm {9/16 inches}● To install this product outdoors, be sure to waterproofthe cables. Waterproof grade (IEC IP66 or equiva-lent) is applied to this product only when it is installedcorrectly as described in these operating instructionsand appropriate waterproof treatment is applied. Theinternal parts of B base bracket (accessory) are notwaterproofed.2xStretch the tape toapprox. twice its length.PoE device (hub)PCLAN cable(category 5 orbetter, straight)Analog monitorLAN cable(category 5 or better, straight)LAN cable(category 5 or better, straight)Powered speakerMicrophone*IMPORTANT:● The analog monitor is used when servicing the camera. It is not provided for record-ing/monitoring use.● Depending on the monitor, some characters (camera title, preset ID, etc.) may not bedisplayed on the screen.● Use a switching hub or a router which is compliant with 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX.● If a PoE hub is not used, each network camera must be connected to a 12 V DCpower supply.● When using 12 V DC, power supply from a PoE hub or router is not required.INITIAL SET button1 When the SD ON/OFF button is pressed, data can be saved to the SD memory card.2 When the SD ON/OFF button is held down for about 2 seconds, the SD MOUNT indicatorgoes out, and the SD memory card can be removed.SD ON/OFF buttonThe hook engageswith the connectorterminalJ LAN cable cover (accessory)● When data is being sent via the network camera Blinks green (accessing)ACT indicator● When the camera is able to communicate with the Lights orangeconnected deviceLINK indicator● When an SD memory card is inserted and could Lights off → Blinks green →be recognized Lights off● When data can be saved after the SD memory card is Lights off → Lights greeninserted and the SD ON/OFF button is pressed● When data can be saved to the SD memory card Lights green● When the SD memory card is removed after holding down Lights green → Blinks green → Lights off (recording)the SD ON/OFF button for about 2 seconds Lights green → Lights off (waiting for recording)● When data cannot be saved to the SD memory card because Lights offan abnormality was detected or the SD memory card isconfigured not to be usedSD MOUNT indicator● When ABF (Auto Back Focus) operation is being executed Blinks red (Interval of 1 time/ second)● When the set is being started Lights red● When an SD memory card* 3 is recognized normally Lights red → Lights off● When the SD memory card slot is not used or an abnormality Lights red → Stays redis detected in SD memory card after the camera has startedSD ERROR/ABF indicator*1 The detailed specifications on the right side of this page describe each terminal andcable.*2 Data Matrix is our website address converted into a two-dimensional barcode.
