Frequently Asked Questions - Star-Light DWC-V4363TIRB Digital Watchdog

How do I adjust the camera lens?
Loosen the zoom and focus handles by turning them counter-clockwise. Adjust the field of view by moving the handle RIGHT (TELE) to zoom in or LEFT (WIDE) to zoom out. After setting zoom, adjust focus similarly. Tighten handles clockwise when done.
How to mount the camera on a surface?
Use the mounting template to mark holes. Drill holes for drywall anchors. Pull wires through the surface mount base (junction box) and mount the base. Snap the camera module onto the base aligning red/black markings, secure with three assembly screws, adjust using the 3-Axis Gimbal, and tighten the dome cover with the L-wrench.
How to access the OSD menu?
The OSD menu is controlled via a built-in joystick on the camera control board. Navigate through menus like EXPOSURE, COLOR, DAY & NIGHT, FUNCTION, MOTION, PRIVACY, and SETUP. Use the joystick to change settings and select SAVE & EXIT to keep changes.
What is Star-Light mode?
Star-Light is a Super Low Light Technology that automatically activates a slow shutter function (from x2 to x1024) when the image is too dark. Default is x4. Increasing the setting may cause image lag. It cannot be controlled if E.SHUTTER is above 1/60.
How to set privacy zones?
In the OSD menu, go to PRIVACY. Up to 8 masks (MASK 1-8) can be enabled. For each mask set ON, select a start point (L_TOP, R_TOP, L_BOT, R_BOT), modify size by moving joystick, adjust position, and set color (GRAY, BLACK, WHITE, RED, GREEN, BLUE, MAGENTA, CYAN).
What is the warranty period?
Digital Watchdog warrants the camera for 5 years on labor and parts, plus 1 year on IR LED from the original purchase date. A proof of purchase is required. Contact technical support at 1-866-446-3595 for service.
How to clean the camera?
To remove dirt from the case, moisten a soft cloth with a mild detergent solution and wipe gently. Avoid using abrasive cleaners. Protect the camera from humidity, dust, and high temperatures.
How to connect to a monitor?
Use the primary BNC output (or secondary BNC for on-site configuration) to connect to a monitor or CRT. For UTP, use a passive-to-passive connection. Ensure power is connected via the dual voltage input (12VDC or 24VAC) with auto polarity detection.
What power supply is needed?
The camera accepts 12VDC or 24VAC (auto sensing). Power consumption: 12VDC: 2.3W (4.8W with IR on); 24VAC: 2.5W (4.9W with IR on). Use a compatible power source with proper voltage and current.
How to enable motion detection?
In the OSD menu, go to MOTION. Set AREA SET to ON for up to 4 areas, adjust TOP/BOTTOM/LEFT/RIGHT. Set SENSITIVITY (1-30) and SHOW INDI to OFF, ICON (bell icon) or TRACE (highlight area). Optionally set EXTER OUT for alarm output duration (0-15 seconds).
