camera or performing factory resetting, you need to set up a login
username and password for the camera.
1. Download and install GV-IP Device Utility from the company
website.
2. On the GV-IP Device Utility window, click
to search for your GV-
IP camera.
3. Double-click your GV-IP camera in the GV-IP Device Utility list. This
dialog box appears.
4. Click the Change Username and Password tab to type a new
username and password. Note that the new password must meet
the password strength requirements.
5. Optionally click Upgrade all devices to use the same username
and password on all other devices.

Note for Adjusting Focus and Zoom
When adjusting the Focus and Zoom Screws, do not over tighten the
Focus and Zoom screws. The screws only need to be as tight as your
finger can do it. It is not necessary to use any tools to get them tighter.
Doing so can damage the structure of lens.
The maximum torque value for all the zoom and focus screws is 0.049 N.m
x
Note for Installing Camera Outdoor
When installing the camera outdoor, be sure that:
1. The camera is set up above the junction box to prevent water from
entering the camera along the cables.
2. Any PoE, power, audio and I/O cables are waterproofed using
waterproof silicon rubber or the like.
xi
3. After opening the camera cover, ensure the screws are tightened
and the cover is in place.
4. Make sure the housing cover is properly secured to prevent water
from entering and damaging the inner housing.
xii
Note for Silica Gel Bags
1. The silica gel bag loses it effectiveness when the dry camera is
opened. To prevent the lens from fogging up, replace the silica gel
bag every time you open the camera, and conceal the gel bag in
camera within 2 minutes of exposing to open air.
2. When the camera is shipped, a silica gel bag will be included inside
the camera. For the first-time user, replace the silica gel bag prior to
the installation to avoid foggy live view.
Note for TV-out Function
Some cameras have a TV-out connector. The TV-out function can only be
used during installation to adjust the focus of the camera. To use the TV
out function, connect the supplied black BNC wire to a monitor and select
your signal format (NTSC or PAL) at the TV Out field on the Web interface.
The default signal format is NTSC. For details, see 4.1.1 Video Settings,
GV-IPCam Firmware Manual. The TV-out wire must be removed before
you secure the housing cover.

standard package
to ceilings, wall corners (concave or convex), and poles using
optional mounting kits
For details on these installations, see GV-Mount Accessories Installation
Guide.
IMPORTANT: When installing the Vandal Proof IP Dome near the
corner, maintain at least 25 cm away from the walls to avoid reflection
problems.
1. Remove the housing cover with the supplied torx wrench.
2. Thread wires into the camera.
A. Unscrew the conduit connector from the back.

There are two ways to supply power to the camera:
Use a Power over Ethernet (PoE) adapter to connect the camera to the
network, and the power will be provided at the same time.
Plug the power adapter to the terminal block by inserting the striped
wire to the right pin (-) and the black wire to the left pin (+).

Chapter 3 Vandal Proof IP Dome
(Part III)
These Vandal Proof IP Domes are outdoor cameras equipped with a
removable IR-cut filter for optimal day and night surveillance. The cameras
adhere to IK10 vandal resistance and IP67 ingress protection. They can
support H.265 video codec to achieve better compression ratio while
maintaining high quality picture. For night operations, the cameras allow up
to 30 m (98.4 ft) effective IR distance. All models have P-Iris for precise
control of exposure and better image clarity and contrast. The Super Low
Lux model, featuring Wide Dynamic Range Pro (WDR Pro), provides clear
live views not only in near darkness but also under contrasting light
intensities. Adjustable in 3 axis (pan, tilt and rotate), the cameras offer
effective surveillance solution with all the essential features and excellent
image quality.

5.3 Installation
The Target Vandal Proof IP Dome is designed for outdoors. With the
standard package, you can install the camera on the ceiling.
Note: You can also install the camera to ceilings, wall corners (concave
or convex), and poles using optional mounting kits.
For details on these installations, see GV-Mount Accessories Installation
Guide.
1. Remove the housing cover with the supplied torx wrench.

C. Thread an Ethernet cable (the end without RJ-45 connector)
and/or the adapter wire from the back panel.
Figure 5-6
D. Thread an Ethernet cable / adapter wire through part 1 of the
connector. According to the below situation, replace the
connector if necessary.
For users of PoE with a Cat.5 Ethernet cable, stay with 1a
connector on the camera body.
For users of PoE with a Cat.6 Ethernet cable, change the
1a connector to the supplied Waterproof rubber set (1b).

D. Re-install the cap (part 3) with the supplied small concave
hexagon wrench. Make sure the cap is installed tightly to
waterproof the camera.
Tip: Use a pair of pliers to help you pull the wires through the
camera.
IMPORTANT:
1. Use the supplied ruler and leave about 10 cm of the audio
wires between their connectors on the camera and the cable
gland.
2. The plugs are used to prevent water from entering the camera
housing. Keep the unused holes plugged and save the
removed plugs for future use.
5. Connect the wires to the camera.
A. Install the terminal block to the power adapter. See 3.4
Connecting the camera.
B. Install the supplied RJ-45 connector to the Ethernet cable.
C. Plug all the connectors to the camera panel.
Tip: Unscrew the indicated screws and lift the camera to help you
connect the wires.

D. Drill A & B holes or only C hole for sorting out the wires
according to Figure 5-11.
E. Secure the back plate to the ceiling with the supplied screws.
F. To optionally install a pipe, use one of the two methods
illustrated below depending on the type of the back plate that
comes with your camera:
If your plate comes with two knobs (as in Figure 5-13),
install the supplied conduit converter, with the PG21 conduit
connector and a self-prepared 1/2" conduit pipe, to the back
plate.

Note: When installed with a pipe, it is required to supply power through a
PoE adapter, because the power adapter wire does not fit in a 1/2” pipe.
You will have to purchase your own PG21 conduit connector if you want
to use 3/4” or 1” pipe.
A metal PG21 conduit connector can be
purchased upon request, which can be connected to a 3/4” pipe.
8. Secure the camera to the ceiling.
A. Secure the safety lock to the camera with the screw you
removed from the back plate in step 2.

5.4 Connecting the Camera
There are two ways to supply power to the camera:
Use a Power over Ethernet (PoE) adapter to connect the camera to the
network, and the power will be provided at the same time.
Plug the power adapter to the terminal block by inserting the striped
wire to the right pin (-) and the black wire to the left pin (+).
