HCX Series Network IP Camera
Quick Install Guide
The HCX Series high speed network megapixel cameras
deliver hi-speed, high quality images even in low-light.
With the HCX Series cameras in your network, you can
record crisp, clear megapixel images while, at the same
time, viewing low-bandwidth video. The rugged, compact
design makes it ideal for industrial applications.
Installation
1.
Plug your HCX Series camera into the network.
2.
Before applying power, verify you are using the
correct power supply.
The HCX Series cameras can be powered directly or
via the Ethernet using an IEEE 802.3af power source.
Powered Direct:
The input voltage is 12 - 24 VDC or 24 VAC, and the
polarity is not important.
Powered via the Ethernet:
Requires an IEEE 802.3af compliant Power over
Ethernet (PoE) power injector or switch.
3.
After power is applied, the HCX Series cameras can
be focused using a field service monitor. If no analog
monitor is available then focus must be performed by
using a browser to view the camera images.
HCX13MW Camera
The analog Video Out is a female RCA connector. It is
factory configured to NTSC; see
change to PAL. The analog video is only available for
viewing until the first digital image is requested via
the Ethernet connection.
Note
Setting up the camera on an analog monitor
after the camera has streamed images to the
network, requires a reboot of the camera.
The analog monitor displays the overall image with
the center of the image digitally zoomed in the
middle of the screen. Below the digitally zoomed
image are two bar meters that indicate optimal focus.
Moving the focus ring on the lens causes the two bar
meters to move left and right. The goal is to have the
bottom meter as far to the right as possible.
HCX3W/HCX5DW Series Cameras
The analog Video Out is a female BNC connector. It
is factory configured to NTSC; see
to change to PAL. The analog video is available
simultaneously with digital images via the Ethernet.
Adjust the focus ring on the lens for the best possible
focus.
