The Zavio B5110 is an outdoor 15M IR IP camera designed for surveillance and monitoring across various environments. This device offers a comprehensive set of features for installation, configuration, and remote access, making it suitable for both personal and professional security applications.

Function Description

The primary function of the Zavio B5110 is to capture and transmit video surveillance footage over an IP network. Equipped with infrared LEDs, it provides clear visibility even in low-light or no-light conditions up to 15 meters. The camera supports both Power over Ethernet (PoE) and traditional power adapter connections, offering flexibility in deployment. It integrates with existing network infrastructure, allowing users to access live video streams and manage settings remotely via a web browser or dedicated software.

The camera's core capabilities include real-time video streaming, motion detection, and event-triggered notifications. It can be configured to send alerts and record footage when specific events occur, enhancing its utility as a security device. The Zavio B5110 also features audio input and output, enabling two-way audio communication or audio monitoring, depending on the setup. An I/O terminal block is provided for integrating external alarm devices, such as sensors or sirens, further expanding its surveillance capabilities.

For network connectivity, the camera supports various methods, including DHCP for automatic IP address assignment, static IP configuration, and PPPoE for direct internet access through an Internet Service Provider. It also leverages UPnP (Universal Plug and Play) for simplified network setup with compatible routers, automatically detecting and adding the camera to the network. This ensures that the camera can be accessed from local networks and over the internet, providing remote monitoring capabilities from anywhere.

The Zavio B5110 is designed to be user-friendly, offering an Intelligent IP Installer software for Windows OS that simplifies the initial setup and configuration process. For Mac OS users, access is facilitated through the Safari browser. The device also supports mobile phone viewing, allowing users to monitor their premises on the go via 3G or 2.5G mobile networks using RTSP streaming or WAP/browser access.

Usage Features

The Zavio B5110 offers a range of usage features that enhance its versatility and ease of operation.

Installation and Setup:

• Physical Mounting: The camera can be wall or ceiling mounted using the supplied screws, base plate, and lock ring, which allows for adjustment of the camera's angle.
• Cable Connection: It supports both PoE (Power over Ethernet) for simplified cabling and traditional power adapter connections. A standard RJ-45 network cable connects the camera to a hub, switch, or router.
• Software Installation: For Windows users, the included Software CD contains the Intelligent IP Installer, which guides users through the installation of necessary firmware and software.
• Initial Access: After installation, the Intelligent IP Installer lists all active camera devices. Users can select their camera and access it via Internet Explorer. Initial login requires a default username and password (admin/admin).
• Browser Configuration: Before accessing the camera, users are advised to adjust browser security settings, specifically ensuring that pop-up blockers are unchecked and ActiveX controls can be installed. This is crucial for the camera's web interface to function correctly and display live video.

Remote Access and Monitoring:

• Web Interface: The camera's web interface provides comprehensive control over settings, including image setup, client settings, and system configurations. Live video is displayed directly in the web browser.
• Language Selection: The web interface language can be changed to the user's preferred language by uploading language packs from the Software CD.
• Mobile Access: The Zavio B5110 can be accessed via mobile phones. iPhone users can enter the IP address in Safari, while 3G mobile phone users can stream video using RTSP (e.g., rtsp://<IP>:<PORT>/video.3gp). 2.5G mobile phone users can access the camera via WAP (http://<IP>/mobile.wml) or a web browser (http://<IP>/mobile.htm).
• MSN Messenger Integration: A unique feature allows live video from the IP camera to be displayed via Microsoft Live Messenger. Users can create a dedicated MSN Messenger account for the camera, which then sends its public and private IP addresses to contacts. This enables contacts to view the camera's webcam feed and even access a control panel for snapshot and image setup functions.
• Internet Connectivity: The camera supports various internet connectivity options:
  • Information Section: Users can manually input IP address, subnet mask, default gateway, and DNS server addresses.
  • PPPoE: For direct internet access, users can configure PPPoE settings with their ISP username and password.
  • UPnP: If the router supports UPnP, the camera can automatically configure port forwarding, simplifying remote access setup.
  • Port Forwarding/Mapping: For routers without UPnP, manual port forwarding or mapping is required to enable internet access.

Image and Environment Settings:

• Lighting Environment: Users can adjust the lighting environment settings (Auto, 50Hz, 60Hz) to match the country's electrical frequency, ensuring optimal image quality and preventing flickering.
• Reset Functionality: A reset button on the device allows users to reboot the camera or restore factory default settings by holding it for 10 seconds.

Maintenance Features

The Zavio B5110 incorporates several maintenance-related features and guidelines to ensure its longevity and optimal performance.

• Housing Integrity: Users are advised not to open the camera housing unnecessarily to prevent moisture from invading the internal components. If the housing must be opened, it should be restored within 5 minutes to minimize exposure.
• Moisture Management: In cases where fog appears on the lens, indicating internal moisture, the cover of the IP camera should be opened, and the device exposed to a dry environment (50~70℃) for approximately 2 hours to dry the wetted inside. This prevents potential damage to the optics and electronics.
• Firmware Updates: The device's functionality can be enhanced or issues resolved through firmware updates. While the manual mentions installing firmware via the CD, users are encouraged to download the latest software from the Zavio website (http://www.zavio.com) for up-to-date features and security patches.
• Factory Reset: The reset button serves as a crucial maintenance tool. Holding it for 10 seconds restores the camera to its factory default settings, which can be useful for troubleshooting configuration issues or preparing the device for a new installation.
• Software CD Resources: The included Software CD contains not only the Intelligent IP Installer but also user manuals and language packs, providing comprehensive resources for troubleshooting and configuration.
• Network Configuration Management: The ability to configure various network settings (DHCP, Static IP, PPPoE, UPnP) allows for flexible network integration and simplifies troubleshooting of connectivity issues. If network settings are changed, especially PPPoE, the camera often requires a reboot to apply the new configurations.
• IP Notification: The IP Notification option, when enabled, allows the camera to send its public and private IP addresses to users, which is particularly useful in environments where IP addresses are dynamically assigned, simplifying remote access management.

By adhering to these installation, usage, and maintenance guidelines, users can ensure reliable and effective operation of their Zavio B5110 IP camera for continuous surveillance needs.
