Need help?Do you have a question about the Honeywell HBD3PR2 and is the answer not in the manual?
The Honeywell HBD3PR2 True Day/Night Indoor/Outdoor IR Bullet IP Camera is a versatile surveillance device designed for both indoor and outdoor environments. This camera is part of the Performance Series IP Cameras and offers robust features for monitoring and security applications.
The HBD3PR2 camera is engineered to capture high-quality video footage, providing reliable surveillance day and night. Its "True Day/Night" capability ensures optimal image clarity in varying light conditions, automatically switching between color and monochrome modes as ambient light changes. The integrated IR (Infrared) illuminators enable clear vision in complete darkness, making it suitable for 24/7 monitoring. As an IP camera, it connects to a network, allowing for remote access and management of video streams. It can be powered either by a 12V DC power source or through Power over Ethernet (PoE), which simplifies installation by transmitting both power and data over a single Ethernet cable. The camera supports local storage via a microSD card, providing a convenient option for recording footage directly on the device, independent of a network video recorder (NVR).
Installation of the HBD3PR2 camera is designed to be straightforward, guided by the provided Quick Installation Guide and mounting template. Users are instructed to prepare the mounting surface, ensuring it is flat and capable of supporting at least three times the camera's weight. The camera assembly is then securely attached using supplied screws. For cable management, options include routing cables through a wall or ceiling, or utilizing a side exit notch, particularly important for outdoor installations to prevent water ingress.
Once physically installed, the camera can be connected to a network via an Ethernet cable. If PoE is not used, a separate 12V DC power source is required. Initial setup involves logging onto the camera, typically through the Honeywell Config Tool, which helps locate the device on the network and open its web browser interface. The default login credentials (username "admin," password "1234") allow access to the camera's settings.
A key feature of this camera is its adjustable zoom and focus. Users can fine-tune the camera's view to capture specific areas of interest. The web interface provides controls for "Zoom in" and "Zoom out" to adjust the magnification, and "Near" and "Far" controls to achieve optimal focus. An "Auto Focus" function is also available to simplify this process. Physical aiming of the camera is facilitated by adjusting screws on the bracket arm using an Allen key, allowing for precise positioning before tightening to secure the desired angle.
The camera is designed for resilience in various environmental conditions, with an operating temperature range of -4°F to 140°F (-20°C to 60°C). However, users are advised to avoid operating or storing the unit in extremely humid, dusty, hot/cold environments outside this range. It is also important to avoid aiming the camera directly at bright light sources for extended periods to prevent damage to the imager and to avoid unstable light sources or fluorescent lamps that may cause flickering.
Maintaining the HBD3PR2 camera involves a few simple guidelines to ensure its longevity and optimal performance. Regular cleaning of the camera is recommended, but users are explicitly warned against using strong or abrasive detergents, which could damage the lens or housing. Instead, a gentle cleaning method should be employed.
For internal maintenance or configuration, such as inserting a microSD card for local storage, the control panel cover on the outside of the camera can be removed using a Phillips screwdriver. This allows access to the microSD card slot. After inserting the card, the cover should be replaced to protect the internal components from environmental elements.
The camera's design emphasizes user safety, with warnings regarding electrical shock. Users are advised not to open the cover themselves, as there are no user-serviceable parts inside. All servicing should be referred to qualified service personnel to ensure safety and maintain the product's warranty. This also applies to installation, which should be performed by qualified and experienced technicians to conform to local codes and maintain warranty validity.
Invisible LED radiation (850 nm) is emitted by the camera's IR illuminators, and users are cautioned to avoid exposure to the beam. This is a standard safety precaution for devices utilizing infrared light.
The camera's compliance with regulatory standards, such as FCC Class B and Canadian ICES-003, indicates its design for safe operation and minimal interference with other electronic devices. Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by Honeywell could void the user's authority to operate the equipment, reinforcing the importance of adhering to the manufacturer's guidelines for maintenance and operation.
