Connecting the Camera
The BWC is an IP streaming camera. Users therefore need access to a PC or similar networked
enabled device to view the camera’s video.
Viewing the video and camera control can be accessed through the web browser interface, users
will therefore need either Firefox, Internet Explorer or Chrome installed on their PC.
To view the streaming video from the camera users should have a video player installed onto their
PC.
Visual Engineering strongly recommends that users have VLC installed. This is essential if Internet
Explorer is used as the browser.
VLC is a free media player and can be downloaded from:
http://www.videolan.org/vlc/index.en_GB.html
It is advised that users download and enable the latest version of VLC Media Player before
attempting to use the BWC.
Cable Connections
The cable attached to the BWC can be interfaced to any third party connection, following the pinout
information detailed in the connector interface section at the end of this user guide.
Alternatively the BWC can be connected into the 8 way Binder RJ45 cable, which in turn is connected
to the power injector cable. The power injector cable should now be connected to the PC’s network
socket and the DC power supply. The DC adaptor should be connected to the mains.
The DC adaptor supplies the camera with 12V DC at 148mA. Alternatively, the camera can be
operated with DC supplies from 6V to 18V if required.
