This document is a Quick Start Guide for a Network Bullet Camera, providing essential information for its installation, activation, and safe operation.

The camera is designed for network surveillance, capturing and transmitting video data over a network. It comes in different types (Type I, Type II, Type III), each with slight variations in features and connectivity options.

Function Description

The Network Bullet Camera serves as a surveillance device, capturing video footage for security and monitoring purposes. It is equipped with a lens for image acquisition and various interfaces for power, network connectivity, and external storage. Some models support Power over Ethernet (PoE), allowing both power and data transmission over a single Ethernet cable, simplifying installation. Certain camera types also feature Wi-Fi capabilities, enabling wireless network connections. The camera includes a reset button, which can be used to restore default settings, including network parameters and user credentials, if needed. For models with Wi-Fi, a WPS/RESET button facilitates easy connection to a wireless network via the Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) protocol.

Usage Features

The camera offers flexible installation options, suitable for both wall and ceiling mounting. The guide provides detailed steps for securing the camera and adjusting its viewing angle, including pan (0° to 360°), tilt (0° to 90°), and rotation (0° to 360°), to achieve the desired coverage. For models that support memory cards, instructions are provided for installing and unmounting the card, allowing for on-device storage of footage. The camera's network connectivity enables remote access and activation, which can be facilitated by scanning a QR code provided in the guide. This allows users to set up and manage the camera from a mobile device.

Maintenance Features

Proper maintenance is crucial for the camera's longevity and optimal performance. The guide emphasizes several precautions:

• Power Supply: Ensure the power supply matches the camera's requirements (12 VDC or PoE) and that all related equipment is powered off during installation to prevent electrical hazards.
• Environmental Considerations: The camera should not be placed in extreme temperatures (-30°C to 60°C, or -40°C to 60°C for "H" suffix models), dusty, or damp locations. Good ventilation is necessary to prevent heat accumulation.
• Physical Handling: Avoid dropping the camera or subjecting it to physical shock. Sensor modules should not be touched with bare fingers; if cleaning is required, use a clean cloth with ethanol. The lens cap should be replaced when the camera is not in use for extended periods to protect the sensor from dirt.
• IR Reflection Prevention: For cameras with IR functionality, specific precautions are outlined to prevent IR reflection, which can degrade image quality. This includes keeping the dome cover clean, avoiding reflective surfaces too close to the lens, and ensuring the foam ring around the lens is properly seated to isolate it from IR LEDs.
• Waterproofing: For outdoor installations, it is essential to use waterproof accessories or tapes to protect cables from moisture, preventing short circuits. Detailed instructions are provided for installing a network cable waterproof jacket and waterproofing other cables.
• Battery Handling (if applicable): The guide includes warnings regarding battery disposal and replacement, emphasizing the risk of explosion if an incorrect battery type is used or if batteries are exposed to fire, high temperatures, or low air pressure.
• Regular Checks: Regular checking and replacement of certain parts, such as electrolytic capacitors, are recommended due to their average enduring time, which varies based on operating environment and usage history. Users are advised to contact their dealer for more details on part replacement.
• Troubleshooting: If the product does not work properly, users are instructed to contact their dealer or service center and to avoid disassembling the camera themselves, as unauthorized repairs may void responsibility for problems.
• Security: Proper configuration of all passwords and security settings is the responsibility of the installer and/or end-user to maintain system integrity.
