Connections

Antenna

Two antennas are included with the

DCS-5300G

. These are screwed onto the

antenna connectors on the back panel to provide a connection with a wireless

network.

Ethernet Cable Connector

The Internet Camera’s back panel features an

RJ-45

connector for connections

to 10Base-T Ethernet cabling or 100Base-TX Fast Ethernet cabling. This network

port supports the

NWay protocol

, allowing the Internet Camera to automatically

detect or negotiate the transmission speed of the network.

The Ethernet cable included with the

DCS-5300G

Internet Camera

is a Category 5

“straight through” cable.

This is the recommended

cable type when the camera is physically connected to a 100Mbps

Fast Ethernet network hub or switch.

Internet Camera’s

back panel and is labeled

12VDC

with a single socket to supply power to the

Internet Camera.

I/O Connector

The

DCS-5300G

provides a terminal block with two pairs of connectors situated

on the back panel. One pair is for input and the other is for output. The I/O

connectors provide the physical interface to send and receive digital signals to

a variety of external alarm devices.

Please refer to the Appendix (Page 132)

Hardware Installation

Connect to an Ethernet Network

If you are connecting the

DCS-5300G

to a

wired

Ethernet network, connect an

Ethernet cable to the Ethernet connector

located on the Internet Camera’s back

panel and attach it to the network.

If you are connecting the

DCS-5300G

to a

802.11g wireless

Ethernet network, attach

the two wireless antennas to the antenna

connectors on the back panel of the

DCS-5300G

.

Attach the external power supply

Attach the external power supply to the DC

power input connector located on the

Internet Camera’s back panel (labeled

12V

1.5A

) and connect it to your wall outlet.

The Internet Camera comes with a camera

stand with a swivel ball screw head that

can be attached to the Internet Camera

bottom socket cavity. Attach the camera

stand to the Internet Camera and station it

for your application. There are holes

located in the base of the camera stand,

which allow the Internet Camera to be

securely mounted to the ceiling, or any wall.

Attaching the Internet Camera to the Camera Stand

When you have a proper connection, the LED will turn from

red

to

green

. The

light may cycle on and off and your computer may show an intermittent loss of

connectivity, this is normal until you have configured your Internet Camera.

Installation Wizard

After you have successfully completed the hardware installation of the

DCS-5300G

Internet Camera, it is necessary to install software to configure

and operate the camera.

The first step is to install the

Installation Wizard

from

the CD.

Installation Wizard

will allow you to configure the Internet Camera to

your network.

After the

Installation Wizard

software program is completed, you will have an

operating and controllable Internet Camera.

From your Internet Explorer Web

browser you will be able to access the video and sound from the Internet camera.

The camera has a built-in Web server. This Web server will allow the camera to

access the Internet without being attached to a computer and permits users to

view the video and audio remotely.

However, it is necessary to install the

IP surveillance

software from the enclosed

CD to create a truly powerful monitoring and surveillance system. The following

section will detail the installation of the

Installation Wizard

and the

IP

surveillance

software.

Installing the Installation Wizard program

Insert the CD that is included with the

DCS-5300G

Internet Camera

. The

DCS-5300G

installation menu will start up automatically from the CD. If the CD

does not start up automatically (this function may be disabled in the Windows

operating system), simply access the CD from Windows and click on the

autorun.exe program to access the installation menu shown below:
