Installation Manual
**Compatible with Insite GOLD
and SWAN Server**
Introduction
The HD78/F Event-Driven Indoor Security IP Camera combined
with its Security Detector provide video/audio solution for security
systems. It provides day/night vision at 720P and Hi-Fi audio
recording, with over 40 minutes of internal event-recording
capacity.
Installing the HD78
WIRING: For bus wire, it is recommended to use 18 gauge wire
if distance from the power supply is over 150ft (50m), or wire is
feeding more than one camera. Due to battery backup opera-
tion conditions, Camera feeding wire (bus) should not have
more than 1.0V drop, each camera represents 0.3A max cur-
rent, wire resistance calculator can be found on the web.
Resistance per:
100ft 22 gauge wire = 1.6 Ohm, 18 gauge 0.64 Ohm. Voltage
drop formula: V = 2R x 0.3N
(R = Wire resistance, N = Number of cameras fed by the wire,
use lower gauge wire if necessary).
Bracket Mount
HD78F - Connect Via Wi-Fi with Insite App
HD78 - Bus Wiring and / or Ethernet (HD78)
Wiring Using a CAT5e Cable
NOTE: Due to the wire size of CAT5 22 gauge wire the maxi-
mum length when using CAT5 for powering the HD78 is 150ft.
Wire the HD78/F camera with a single CAT5e or higher cable
including two twisted pairs for the 4-wire bus and two twisted pairs
for the Ethernet lines. The maximum CAT5e cable length is 50
meters.
