Upon purchasing the product, check inside the box to make sure all the following accessories are included:

An allen wrench, protect connector, and desiccant are included with the DC-D4536HRX(-A) model.

IR LED: A sensor in the middle monitors lighting levels and activates the IR LED during low-lighting conditions.

Lens: A motorized focus and zoom lens is installed.

Factory Reset Button: Restores the camera’s default factory settings.

Wall/Ceiling Installation Hole: Used to screw the camera in place on a wall or a ceiling.

Power (DC12V): Connect to the power adapter. An A-type jack is used (External diameter x internal diameter: 5.5 x 2.5).

Network Port: Connect a network cable with an RJ-45 connector to this port. If using a PoE switch, you can supply power to the camera using an Ethernet cable.

Dome Cover Assembly Part: The dome cover rotates on the bottom cover and is tightened.

Alarm I/O, Audio I/O: Port for connecting alarm and audio devices.

SD Memory Card Slot: Slot for inserting a micro SD memory card.

Cable Rubber: Prevents foreign matter from getting inside through the cable access hole.

Audio

O (Out): Connect an amplifier to this port (line out). This device does not feature a built-in audio amplifier unit and therefore requires the user to purchase a separate speaker system with a built-in amplifier.

I (In): Connect an audio source to this port (Line in).

Alarm

O (Out): It is the BJT (Bipolar Junction Transistor) – open collector output. If the voltage and current exceed the specification limit (Max. Load: 30mA, Max. Voltage: 5VDC), the product could be damaged. If used with an external inductive load (e.g. relay), a diode must be connected in parallel with the load for protection.

I (In): Connect an alarm-in device to this port. Connect a mechanical or electrical switch to the alarm in port and the GND (ground) connector. Alarm in range is 0V to 5V. In order to detect alarm input from an electrical switch, the signal must be higher than 4.3V from an NC switch or less than 0.3V from an NO switch and must last for longer than 0.5 seconds.

I/O Connector Pinout

An SLC (Single Level Cell) or MLC (Multi Level Cell) card by SanDisk or Transcend is recommended for use.

Do not remove the SD memory card while the system is in operation. Removing the card while the system is in operation can cause the system to malfunction and/or corrupt data stored on the SD memory card.

An SD memory card is a consumable product with a finite service life. Prolonged use will damage the card’s memory sectors and result in data loss or memory card failure. Test the SD memory card regularly and replace it whenever necessary.

Only use the factory reset button to restore the camera to its factory default settings. A factory reset will clear all camera settings configured by the user.

1. Shut off the power supply.

2. Remove the dome cover and then press the reset button down.

3. Hold the button down and reconnect the power adapter.

4. Once the device turns back on, wait 5 seconds, and then release the reset button.

5. The device will go through the resetting process and reboot. All camera settings will be restored to their factory defaults after the reboot.

It’s also possible to do a factory reset by pressing and releasing the reset button while the camera is turned on or using the IDIS Discovery program from a remote location. A factory reset will reboot the system.

1. Loosen the screws counterclockwise using the allen wrench provided with the product.

2. Remove the dome cover.

Insert a SD memory card into the SD memory card slot with the ‘micro SD’ print facing upward.

To remove the card, push the SD memory card until it disengages from the slot, and then pull it out.

Before installation, check the wall or ceiling to see if it needs to be reinforced. The camera may fall off if the wall or ceiling is not strong enough to support its weight. Also, install the camera in a shaded area. If the camera is installed in direct sunlight, it may be affected adversely.

1. Detach the protrusion part from the cable rubber along the dotted line.

2. Make the LAN cable go through the cable rubber using the protect connector. It is recommended to use lubricant to move the LAN cable smoothly.

3. Pull the cable slightly and arrange the rubber as shown in the manual’s diagram.

4. Assemble the cable rubber to the bottom cover. To pass through a thin cable or more than two cables, it is advised to finish it using silicon to make sure it is waterproofed perfectly.

5. Attach the enclosed desiccant in the bottom to prevent moisture.

6. Use the screws and anchors provided with the camera to secure the install body on a wall or a ceiling. Use the provided guide pattern to check the distance between the screws.

7. Connect external devices, the network cable, and the power adapter.

8. Adjust the angle.

The lens can be rotated along three axes:

Lens Rotation: Used to adjust the lens’ rotation angle. Turn the lens rotator clockwise or counterclockwise direction.

Vertical Rotation: Used to adjust the lens’ vertical angle.

Horizontal Rotation: Used to adjust the lens’ horizontal angle. Turn the horizontal rotator in the clockwise or counterclockwise direction.

1. Attach the double-sided tape to the desiccant first, and attach it to the specified position inside the dome cover as shown in the manual. Check the location of the drain hole and wall/ceiling installation hole to ensure correct placement.

2. Before closing the dome cover, make sure that the gasket ring is securely fixed.

3. Fasten the screws for the dome cover clockwise using the Allen wrench provided with the camera.

4. Remove the protective film from the inside and outside of the dome cover.

In a DirectIP NVR-based layout, the IDIS DC-D4536HRX-A connects to a DirectIP Switch using a network cable. The DirectIP Switch, in turn, connects to the DirectIP NVR. This setup allows for easy configuration and control of the camera via the NVR’s setup menu without needing a separate PC. The NVR can be connected to a monitor for viewing and a network for remote monitoring. External devices such as an audio source (Audio In), speakers (Audio Out), sensor (Sensor In), and alarm (Alarm Out) can be connected directly to the camera.

In a non-DirectIP NVR-based layout, the IDIS DC-D4536HRX-A is connected directly to a network. The camera can then be controlled and viewed from a computer on the same network using software like IDIS Solution Suite Compact or a web browser (IDIS Web). External devices like an audio source, speakers, sensors, and alarms are connected directly to the camera. Video can also be recorded to an optional microSD memory card installed in the camera.

Check the power cable connection. If using a PoE switch to supply power to the camera using an Ethernet cable, check the Ethernet cable connection.

Check the power outlet. If using a PoE switch to supply power to the camera using an Ethernet cable, check the PSE device’s power supply.

Check the grounding status of the I/O device connected to the camera and the PoE switch. If they are not grounded, ground them and try again.

Check the camera’s power status.

Ensure that cables are properly connected to the camera and the lens.

Check the network connection status of the computer and the network camera.

Make sure the lens is clean. If not, clean it using a soft piece of cloth or a brush.

Make sure the lens is in focus. Adjust the focus during daytime.

If there is too much light coming into the camera or the camera is picking up an overly bright light source, adjust the camera’s position/angle accordingly.

Check the white balance settings. If using the Auto option, it may take some time for the white balance to be adjusted.

If the camera is pointed at the sun or a fluorescent lamp, adjust the camera’s angle away.

You must perform a factory reset. A factory reset will revert all settings, including network settings, to their factory defaults. After performing a factory reset, make a memo of the admin ID and password as a safety precaution.
