To use camera with Wi-Fi >> Do app setup BEFORE mounting

To use camera with PoE or Data cable >> Do app setup AFTER mounting

 .2 Drill pilot holes for mounting screws. Install back box to the desired location

 .3 Install camera on the back box. Attach Wifi antenna.

 .4 Camera component identification above Type B, Below Type A

Note:

• If Wifi password is entered correctly, camera status will be online in less than 2 minutes of disconnecting Data cable. If camera doesn't become online within 2 minutes, see troubleshooting tips here
• Recommended wiring EIA/TIA 568B standard

A PVC box JBX442 4"x4"x2" from Westburne Ruddy or NEDCO may be used.

Note: If you are supplying power prior to installation - place the camera in a way so that it can rotate free of obstruction for self-calibration. If you place the camera lens touching any surface while powering up - it will damage the lens cover and also it could damage the PTZ motor.

Tips! 

• Recommended Network cable is CAT5e/CAT6e, using 568B standard. For colder environment use direct burial CAT5e.
• Standard Ethernet distance rules apply, recommended max cable length is 100m or 320ft
• Power-Supplying Equipment (PSE) may use either End-Span or Mid-Span.

• Powered devices (PD’s) accept power from either type of power source
• For every 100 feet of wire needed, there will be a 0.5V drop in the voltage. Calculate the wire length accordingly. Most new CAT-6e cables have the length of the wire printed on the outer sheath.
