1 Overview

1.1 Introduction

The Device is integrated with clear image, digitization, and intelligence. It adopts new design, and is easy to install. After installing the Device, the overall aesthetics of the monitoring site is not affected.

1.2 Features

HD Video

The image resolution is in megapixels.

Transmission without Any Loss

The data can be transmitted for up to 500 meters through 75-3 coaxial cable without any loss.

The function is available on select models.

Coaxial Control

The Device can be controlled through coaxial signal.

OSD Menu

With the OSD menu, you can see the device information, and set the functions and

forth to display image at a certain speed in a certain range.

Tour

You can add several presets to a tour in the order you need, and then the Device can move back and forth at the defined interval in the order you need.

Pattern

Pattern means a record of a set of operations that users make to the Device. The operations include horizontal and vertical movements, zoom and preset calling. Record and save the operations, and then you can call the pattern path directly.

Privacy Masking

You can set a masked region in the monitoring screen to protect privacy. The masked area moves as the Device rotates horizontally and vertically, and it changes with the image size.

Alarm Linkage

The Device supports up to 7 NO or NC digital input ports and 2 NO alarm output ports. When alarms are triggered, the defined linked operations can be performed.

Auto Flip

You can track objects manually. When the object passes below the camera, you can operate the joystick on the keyboard to make the Device auto flip 180° horizontally to ensure tracking continuity.

Power-on Self-Test

The Device can perform self-test when it is powered on, which mainly includes self-test of the motor in the horizontal and vertical directions, self-test of camera zooming, and displaying system information.

Dav/Night Switch

Idle Motion

The Device performs a defined action when it does not receive any valid command within a certain period.

Power Up

The Device performs power-up actions automatically after restarting and self-test, which includes auto, preset, scan, tour, pattern and none.

Image Stabilization and Flip

You can enable the image stabilization and image flip through the OSD menu. With the image stabilization function, the image is more stable when the Device is in an environment with vibration. With the image flip function, viewing image is more convenient.

The function depends on the device module.

2 Preparation

The Device is intended to use with matched back-end devices such as HCVR, DVR, and XVR. The manual takes using with XVR as an example.

Before controlling the Device, you need to set the control mode and protocol on the back-end device.

Step 1 Connect the Device to the XVR, and then connect the XVR to a display.

Step 2 Connect all devices to the power supply.

The Device is powered on, and the live interface is displayed.

Step 3 Right-click on the interface, select Main Menu > Camera > PTZ, and then select control mode and protocol as needed.

- If you select HDCVI for Control Mode, HDCVI3.0 and HDCCTV2.0 can be selected for Protocol. But before using HDCCTV2.0, you need to connect the Device to the XVR with ab cable. You can keep the default values for other parameters.

- If you select Serial Port for Control Mode, PELCOD and PELCOP can be selected for Protocol. Before using these two protocols, you need to connect the Device to the XVR with ab cable.

If selecting PELCOD, you need to enter the Address = device address - 1. For example, if the device address is 1, enter 0 for the address. The device address can be found in System Setting > Addr Information.
If selecting PELCOP, you need to enter the device address.
