Precautions
Do not install the camera near electric or magnetic fields.
Install the camera away from TV/radio transmitters, magnets, electric motors, transformers and audio speakers since the electromagnetic fields generated from these devices may distort the video image or otherwise interfere with camera operation.
Never disassemble the camera beyond the recommendations in this manual nor introduce materials other than those recommended herein.
Improper disassembly or introduction of corrosive materials may result in equipment failure or other damage.
Try to avoid facing the camera toward the sun.
In some circumstances, direct sunlight may cause permanent damage to the sensor and/or internal circuits, as well as creating unbalanced illumination beyond the capability of the camera to compensate.
- Keep the power cord away from water and other liquids and never touch the power cord with wet hands.
Touching a wet power cord with your hands or touching the power cord with wet hands may result in electric shock.
- Never install the camera in areas exposed to oil, gas or solvents.
Oil, gas or solvents may result in equipment failure, electric shock or, in extreme cases, fire.
- Cleaning
For cameras with interchangeable lenses, do not touch the surface of the sensor directly with the hands. Use lens tissue or a cotton tipped applicator and ethanol to clean the sensor and the camera lens. Use a damp soft cloth to remove any dirt from the camera body. Please do not use complex solvents, corrosive or abrasive agents for cleaning of any part of the camera.
- Do not operate the camera beyond the specified temperature, humidity or power source ratings.
Use the camera at temperatures within -10^ 50^ / 14^ 122^ , and humidity between 0% and 90%; this device is not rated as submersible. The input power source is 12VDC / PoE. Be sure to connect the proper + / - polarity and voltage, as incorrect polarity or too high a voltage will likely cause the camera to fail, and such damage is not covered by the warranty. The use of properly fused or Class 3 power limited type supplies is highly recommended.
- Mounting
Use care in selecting a solid mounting surface which will support the weight of the camera plus any wind, snow, ice or other loading, and securely attach the camera to the mounting surface using screws and anchors which will properly support the camera. If necessary (e.g. when mounting to drop ceilings) use a safety wire to provide additional support for the camera.

1. Introduction
The Value IP 2-megapixel 288 / 3-megapixel 368 / 4-megapixel 468 series H.265 Outdoor IP camera provides 30fps at 1920 x 1080 / 2048 x 1536 / 2592 x 1520 viewing resolution. The series supports dual streams from H.265 or H.264 video compression formats. In same resolution, the H.265 provides higher compression efficiency and lower bitrate comparing with H.264 codec, allowing more efficient bandwidth and data storage usage. The True Wide Dynamic Range (WDR) function on the other hand enables the IP camera to provide clear images even under back light circumstances where intensity of illumination can vary excessively.
Featured with a motorized zoom lens, EDN288M/368M/468M; EZN288M/368M/EZN468M can provide the desired field of view with superior video quality in precise focus. Equipped with a weather-proof (IP66) housing, the Value IP 288 / 368 / 468 series meets a wide variety of needs for outdoor surveillance. Except 12VDC power supply, the series also supports Power over Ethernet (IEEE 802.3af), which eliminates the need for power cables and thus reduce the installation costs.
The Value IP 288 / 368 / 468 series conforms to ONVIF for compatibility with other network video devices. You can also use EverFocus Mobile applications to remotely view the live views of the cameras through your iOS or android handheld devices; or use EverFocus CMS to remotely manage multiple IP devices connected on the network.
Types of Models
The Value IP camera provides two types: Standard type and Economic type. The Standard type models provide full functionality; while the Economic type models provide basic functionality.

There are three methods to connect the IP camera to the network: Router or LAN Connection, Direct High-Speed Connection and One-to-One Connection.
Router or LAN connection
This is the most common connection in which the IP camera is connected to a router and allows multiple users on and off site to see the IP camera on a LAN / WAN (Internet). The camera must be assigned an IP address that is compatible with its LAN. By setting up port forwarding on the router, you can remotely access the cameras from outside of the LAN via the Internet. To remotely access the Web interface of the IP camera, please refer to 7.1.1 Network (DDNS Settings). To set up port forwarding, please refer to Appendix D. Setting up Port Forwarding Function.

One-to-One Connection (Directly from PC to IP Camera)
You can connect directly without using a switch, router or modem. However, only the PC connected to the camera will be able to view the IP camera. You will also have to manually assign a compatible IP address to both the computer and the IP camera. Unless the PC has another network connection, the IP camera will be the only network device visible to the PC. See the diagram below:

B. RTSP URL Syntax
Following is the RTSP URL syntax of EverFocus' IP cameras.
rtsp://[device-ip-address]/ch1_[main]
* [device-ip-address] is the IP address of the IP camera
* [main] is for Main Stream; [sub] is for Sub Stream
For example, if the IP address of the IP camera is 192.168.37.55, the RTSP URL (main stream / sub stream) of this IP camera will be:
Main Stream:
rtsp://192.168.37.55/ch1_main
Sub Stream:
rtsp://192.168.37.55/ch1_sub
Note: If you have difficulty getting the live view image, please reduce the number of clients accessing the IP camera.
C. Setting up Port Forwarding Function
IP Camera port forwarding can be used when users need to access a certain IP camera from outside of the local network where the IP camera is connected to.
To enable the IP camera port forwarding function, you have to configure the port forwarding settings both on the IP camera and the router (UPnP-enabled). Please follow the steps below:

D. Setting up DDNS Function
If you set up your IP Camera with DHCP network, the IP address of your IP Camera may change at different times for different reasons, particularly after a power failure. The changing IP address of the IP Camera may cause you difficulties accessing the IP Camera. To solve this problem, you can set up the DDNS function to your IP Camera, and access your IP Camera with a fixed host name whenever the IP address of your IP Camera changes.
DDNS (Dynamic Domain Name System) is a service used to map a domain name to the dynamic IP address of a network device. It assigns a domain name (URL) to the IP Camera, so that the user does not need to go through the trouble of checking if the IP address assigned by DHCP Server has changed. Once the IP is changed, the IP Camera will automatically update the information to the DDNS to ensure it is always available for remote access.
To set up DDNS for your IP Camera, you have to 1) enable the DMZ or Port Forwarding function of your router 2) configure the network setting of your IP Camera 3) configure the DDNS setting of your IP Camera. Please follow the steps below.
To enable the DDNS function:
- In order to access the IP camera from outside of the local network, enable either the Port Forwarding or DMZ function of your router. Please refer to the manual of your router for more details.

If you have a computer that cannot run Internet applications successfully from behind the router, then you can place the computer into the DMZ for unrestricted Internet access. Note: Putting a computer in the DMZ may expose that computer to a variety of security risks. Use of this option is only recommended as a last resort. Enable DMZ : ✓ DMZ IP Address : 192.168.0.119 | × << Computer Name ✓- On the Network Setting page (Setting > System Settings > Network > IP Settings), configure the IP Settings, keep the default Port Settings and then click the Save button.
