Frequently Asked Questions - DPD23D Digimerge

What power source does the DPD23D require?
The camera operates on DC 12V or AC 24V (±10%). Ensure correct polarity when using DC power.
How do I install the DPD23D camera?
You can mount it directly to a surface, use the camera base with a junction box, or install it semi-flush. Follow the steps in the manual: remove the dome cover, attach the base, run cables, and secure the camera module.
Can the DPD23D be used outdoors?
No, the DPD23D is an indoor dome model. It is not waterproof; exposure to rain or moisture may damage the unit.
How do I adjust the camera viewing angle?
After installation, loosen the thumb screw with a flat head screwdriver, adjust the camera position, and tighten the screw to secure. Lens adjustment levers should be turned counter-clockwise to unlock.
What is the minimum illumination for the camera?
The camera can capture color images down to 0.15 Lux at F1.2. With sense-up enabled (up to x256), it can go as low as 0.001 Lux. In complete darkness, 0 Lux with IR LEDs (though the DPD23D does not have built-in IR; it relies on external IR or low light). Note: The DPD23D does not include IR LEDs; for night vision, consider the DPV24TLX model.
How should I clean the camera?
Turn off and unplug the camera. Use a slightly damp soft cloth with mild household detergent. Never use strong solvents like thinner or benzine.
Does the DPD23D have night vision?
The DPD23D is a day/night camera with an ICR filter for clear night vision, but it does not have built-in IR LEDs. For night vision with IR, consider the outdoor vandal-resistant models like DPV24TLX.
How do I reset the camera to factory defaults?
In the OSD menu, go to the RESET option. This will restore all settings to manufacturer defaults.
How do I set up privacy masking?
From the OSD menu, select SPECIAL > PRIVACY and set to ON. You can define up to 8 privacy zones, adjust their position, size, and color.
What is the OSD menu used for?
The OSD (On-Screen Display) menu allows you to adjust camera settings such as exposure, white balance, day/night mode, 3D noise reduction, motion detection, privacy masking, and more. Access it by pressing the function joystick.

2. CLEANING

Turn the unit off and unplug from the power outlet before cleaning. Use a damp cloth for cleaning. Do not use harsh cleansers or aerosol cleaners.

3. ATTACHMENTS

Do not use attachments unless recommended by manufactured as they may affect the functionality of the unit and result in the risk of fire, electric shock or injury.

4. MOISTURE

Do not use equipment near water or other liquids.

5. ACCESSORIES

Equipment should be installed in a safe, stable location. Any wall or shelf mounting accessory equipment should be installed using the manufacture's instructions. Care should be used when moving heavy equipment. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the equipment to fall causing serious injury to persons and objects.

6. VENTILATION

Openings in the equipment, if any, are provided for ventilation to ensure reliable operation of the unit and to protect if from overheating. These openings must not be blocked or covered

7. POWER SOURCES

The equipment should be operated only from the type of power source indicated on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supplied at the installation location, contact your dealer. For equipment designed to operate from battery power, refer to the operating instructions.

8. GROUNDING OR POLARIZATION

Equipment that is powered through a polarized plug (a plug with one blade wider than the other) will fit into the power outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.

Alternate Warning: If the equipment is powered through a three-way grounding-type plug, a plug having a third (grounding) pin, the plug will only fit into a grounding-type power outlet. This is a safety feature. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type plug. If your outlet does not have the grounding plug receptacle, contact your local electrician.

9. CORD AND CABLE PROTECTION

Route power cords and cables in a manner to protect them from damage by being walked on or pinched by items places upon or against them.

For protection of the equipment during a lightning storm or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug the unit from the wall outlet. Disconnect any antennas or cable systems

that may be connected to the equipment. This will prevent damage to the equipment due to Lightning or power-line surges.

11. OVERLOADING

Do not overload wall outlets and extension cords as this can result in a risk of fire or electric shock.

12. SERVICING

Do not attempt to service the video monitor or equipment yourself as opening or removing covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.

13. DAMAGE REQUIRING SERVICE

Unplug the equipment from the wall outlet and refer servicing to qualified service personnel under the Following conditions:

A. When the power supply cord or the plug has been damaged.

B. If liquid has spilled or objects have fallen into the Unit.

C. If the equipment has been exposed to water or other liquids.
