Overview

MSH-CX550WS series Network cameras adopts SONY CCD, with bright and exquisite images. As video & audio multi-media equipment that based on network transmission, which adopts built-in and multi-media communication technology, the camera is a multi-media network terminal that can directly connect to the network.

The camera adopts all-built-in technology, which can be connected to the TCP/IP network without any other equipment and realize the video & audio collection, code compression and transmission function. Outstanding H.264 compression code arithmetic guarantees the minimum occupation of bandwidth, and built-in Web Server enables users to visit the IP camera through IE or special surveillance management software.

Furthermore, the camera adopts big body design and built-in fans, which not only makes it have good appearance, but also guarantees the reliable running of the camera.

Setup and Adjustment

1. Lightness Control Selection

   ELC: changeable shutter speed between 1/50s and 1/10000s
   ALC: This item is chosen when video drive or DC drive lens is applied.

2. DC driver lens level adjustment
   

   When the DC driver auto iris lens is applied, rotate DC button and adjust it to the appropriate place to get the images with proper lightness.

3. Installation of Auto Iris Lens Connector

   Install the lens connector (YEE4191J100) when an auto iris lens is used.

   The following installation should be undertaken by qualified service personnel or system installers.

   1. Cut the iris control cable at the end of the lens connector to remove the existing lens connector, and then remove the outer cable cover.

      The pin assignment of the lens connector is as follows:
      

   2. After connection, assemble the lens connector as follows:
      

      When the iris adjustment cable is too tight to lock the connector cover with the connector base, cut off the rib on the connector.

4. Lens installation

   
   Before you install the lens, loosen the screws on the back focal adjusting ring, and rotate this ring rightwards until it can not move any more (at the side of C install mount) to avoid any damage to the inner glass or CCD image sensor.

   1. Loosen the screws on the back focal adjusting ring: for install it on lens fixing frame of camera.
   2. When using auto iris lens, Connect lens cables to auto iris lens Connector on the camera. Turn the back focal adjusting ring to the desired position.
