Outdoor Network Camera
These instructions are intended for installers of
video surveillance systems. Please read the in-
structions carefully prior to installation and keep
them for later reference.
1 Applications
The camera INC-2812DV is specially designed for
video surveillance systems based on computer net-
works. Its housing is weatherproof (IP 66); therefore,
the camera is also suited for outdoor applications. It
is equipped with a 2 megapixel image sensor and a
zoom lens (2.8 – 12 mm). The camera features include
mirror image, masking of image areas and motion
detection. Due to the swivelling lens (3-axis rotation),
the camera is also suited for wall mounting. In the
dark, the integrated IR LEDs (21) will illuminate a
surveillance zone of up to 30 m and the camera will
switch to B/ W mode. The camera is provided with
an integrated web server with 2-way video stream-
ing. For correct configuration, knowledge in network
technology is indispensable.
The camera can be operated in combination with
a network video recorder (e. g. INR-…*) or operated
independently via a web browser. It is equipped with
an audio input and an audio output so that mutual
communication via a computer will be possible. A
switching output is provided for switching units,
e. g. triggered by integrated motion detection. The
camera also offers an alarm input. This input can
be used, for example, to start recordings or e-mail
messages. A memory card slot allows video recording
in the camera according to schedule or triggered by
integrated motion detection.
*Hint:
If this camera model does not appear in the list
of the recorder used, select the ONVIF protocol.
2 Important Notes
The camera corresponds to all relevant directives of
the EU and is therefore marked with .
CAUTION
When it gets dark, the infrared LEDs will
switch on. When setting up the camera, never look
directly into the lit infrared LEDs at close range. The
infrared light may cause eye irritation. However, the
infrared radiation is far below the emission limit and
rated risk-free according to EN 62471.
•
Protect the camera against extreme temperatures
(admissible ambient temperature range: −10 °C to
+50 °C).
•
Never use aggressive detergents or chemicals
when cleaning the camera.
•
No guarantee claims for the camera and no liabil-
ity for any resulting personal damage or material
damage will be accepted if the camera is used for
other purposes than originally intended, if it is not
correctly connected or operated, or if it is not re-
paired in an expert way. Likewise, no liability will
be accepted for any data loss due to operating er-
rors or a defect or for any consequential damage
caused by this data loss.
If the camera is to be put out of operation
definitively, take it to a local recycling plant
for a disposal which is not harmful to the
environment.
3 Installation
1) A test operation is recommended in order to find
the best mounting location. For this purpose, op-
erate the camera temporarily (
☞
next chapters).
To avoid scratches, leave the protective film on the
dome (7) during installation.
2) There are two installation options for the camera:
🄰
: Attach the base (1) to the mounting location.
🄱
: Attach the base (1) including the camera insert
(2) to the mounting location.
At the mounting location (e. g. wall or ceiling),
drill three holes for fixing the camera (drilling jig
is provided) and, if necessary, drill a hole for the
connection cable. According to the installation
option selected, use the markings (“A” or “B”)
on the drilling jig.
To guide the cable through the side of the base
instead of guiding it through the mounting sur-
face, use the key provided to remove the screw (8)
and guide the cable through this hole.
3) Loosen the three screws (22) of the dome and
remove the dome (7).
CAUTION
Never touch the lens with your fin-
gers. For cleaning the lens, only use optical lens
cleaners.
4) Unscrew the three screws (3) used to fasten the
camera insert (2) to the base (1).
5) Option
🄰
:
I) Turn the camera insert (2) counter-clockwise
by approx. 5° and remove it from the base (1).
II) Use the three
🄰
screws (and the dowels pro-
vided, if required) to fasten the base to the
mounting location.
III) Guide the cable through the hole in the
mounting surface or through the cable inlet
(8) on the side.
IV) Place the camera insert into the base and turn
clockwise until it latches into the base.
V) Use the three screws (3) to fasten the camera
insert to the base again.
Option
🄱
:
I) Only if the cable is to be guided through the
side of the base:
a) Turn the camera insert (2) counter-clock-
wise by approx. 5° and remove it from the
base (1).
b) Guide the cable through the cable inlet (8)
on the side.
c) Place the camera insert into the base and
turn clockwise until it latches into the base.
II) Insert the three long
🄱
screws into the holes
(from which the three screws (3) have been
removed) and through the base and fasten it
to the mounting location (use the dowels pro-
vided, if required).
6) To align the camera, to reset the camera and to
insert or replace the memory card, it is necessary
to remove the mask (4). To do this, slightly press
the two arrows that are opposite each other.
7) To align the camera, it can be turned around three
axes:
– The entire camera support can be turned in the
camera insert.
– The camera can be turned in the camera sup-
port around the axis of the lens.
– The camera can be turned in its support. For
this purpose, slightly loosen the two opposite
screws (17) on the support, align the camera
and fasten the screws again.
4 Connecting the Camera
The connections (10 – 14) and the cable splitter (9)
are not weatherproof; protect them accordingly.
1) Connect the camera via the RJ45 connector (10)
to an individual computer, a local computer net-
work or, e. g. via a router, to larger computer net-
works (Internet).
Note:
For direct connection to a computer, a crossover
cable may be required.
2) For audio transmission via the network, connect
an audio source with line level (e. g. microphone
with preamplifier) to the RCA connector “Audio
Input” (12).
3) For audio reproduction, connect a headphone
amplifier or a sound system to the RCA connector
“Audio Output” (13).
4) To evaluate an alarm device, connect the pins
(14) IN 0 and COM 0 via a normally open contact
or normally closed contact (to be selected in the
camera settings).
5) To switch a unit (e. g. via a relay), connect the
switching output of the camera via the pins (14)
OUT 1 and COM 1. Select the switching character-
istic (normally open contact / normally closed con-
tact, pulse) in the camera settings. The maximum
load of the output is
⎓
12 V/ 300 mA.
6) For using the camera itself for video recordings,
remove the dome (7) and the mask (4) (
☞
chap-
ter 3, steps 3 and 6). Insert a memory card of the
type “microSD[HC]” (32 GB max.). Push the card
(contacts to the PCB) into the slot (15) until it en-
gages. The LED (16) will light up to indicate that a
card has been inserted.
To remove the card, push the card into the slot
until it disengages. Never remove the card while a
recording is being made!
7) Connect a regulated 12 V power supply unit with
a permanent rating of 1 A (e. g. PSS-1210DC) via
a DC power connector
⌀
5.5 / 2.1 mm (outside / in-
side) to the connector (11). Always observe the
correct polarity: centre contact = +
Alternatively, use the network cable (Power
over Ethernet IEEE 802.3af) to supply the camera
with power.
5 Connecting the Camera to a Network
To be able to directly address the camera for configu-
ration, its IP address is factory-set to 192.168.0.120.
If you do not know the current address of the cam-
era, start the program “IPSearch.exe” from the CD
provided to find the camera in the network.
1) To start the search, click the button “Start” of
the tab “Multicast Search”. The list on the left
will show the cameras found in the network
(
☞
fig. 2).
2) To stop the search, click the button “Stop”.
3) Select the camera from the list. The current set-
tings of this camera can be found on the right.
4) Change the settings as required:
IP address, subnet mask and gateway address can
be defined as static values (select the option “De-
vice uses the following IP address”). Enter a unique
IP address for each camera. If a DHCP server
is available in the network (e. g. in the router or
