3. Camera Connection

  1. Before mounting the camera, please ensure that the three-way gimbal fixed to the truss is secure.

  2. Connect the cameras to the three-way gimbal using the quick-release plate, then attach the three-way gimbal to the tripod or C-clamp (2.3.1). For ease of debugging, arrange the cameras in the order of the IP addresses labeled on their backs.

  3. Plug the POE Separator into the RJ45 network port and DC power jack on the back of the camera. Connect each camera's POE Separator to the switch via a network cable. There is no specific order for the interfaces, but they should not be connected to the LAN/NVR of the 8-port switch or the 25/26 interface of the 24-port switch.

  4. If using an 8-port switch, use a network cable to connect the LAN port of the switch to the network port of the computer. If there are multiple 8-port switches, use a network cable to connect the LAN port of Switch A to the NVR port of Switch B. Then, connect the LAN port of Switch B to the computer. If using a 16-port switch, use a network cable to connect the 15th or 16th port of the switch to the computer. If there are multiple 16-port switches, use a network cable to connect the 15th port of Switch A to the 16th port of Switch B. Then, connect the 15th port of Switch B to the computer. After powering on the switch, wait for about 20 seconds to confirm that each camera is powered on and lit. The digital display directly below the camera will light up and show the last three digits of the IP address.

Note:

Please confirm the camera you are using. The following camera do not use POE Separator

Mars: Mars9H, Mars9HW, Mars18H, Mars18HW, Mars26H, Mars26HW

Pluto: ALL

VRT: ALL
