Introduction

This camera series is the latest technology and advanced circuit design, which features high definition and sensitivity, low noise and distortion and supports HD video transmission with the common coaxial cable, ensuring the requirement of the HD monitoring in the traditional surveillance system.

● High Resolution

Adopt high performance sensor, providing high definition and clear image.

● High Transmission Performance

Real-time transmission with high speed and long distance.

● DNR

Reduce noise from brightness and color signal.

● OSD

Access the camera settings which can be clearly displayed through the main menu.

● White Balance

Adjust the color temperature according to the environment automatically.

- ICR Auto Switch

The filter will filter infrared light during the daytime and change to normal at night to ensure a high sensitivity and clear image.

● AGC

Adjust the gain of amplifier, enabling the camera to output the standard video signal in different lighting condition.

● Wide Dynamic Range (WDR)

When there are both very bright and very dark areas simultaneously in the field of view, this function will balance the brightness level and provide clear images.

● Backlight Compensation (BLC)

When the back of the captured object is too much bright, you can set BLC for the captured object to make it clearer.

Cables

Video Switch: Four video output modes can be optional--AHD, TVI, CVI and CVBS (a) remove the cover of the video switch cable; (b) hold and press the button in the video switch cable for 5 seconds to switch the current video output.

Installation

Before you start, please make sure that the wall or ceiling is strong enough to withstand three times the weight of the camera. Please install and use the camera in the dry environment.

You'd better install back the lens cover or lower dome less than 4 hours after removing it.

The mounting types of cameras are only for reference.

▶Mounting for VLB5/VLB6

1. Drill the screw holes and the cable hole on the wall according to the drill template.

1. Route and connect the cables.
2. Secure the mounting base with camera to the wall with screws as shown below.
