VIDEO QUALITY CAUTION
Frame Rate Notice Regarding User-Selected Options
Pelco systems are capable of providing high quality video for both live viewing and playback. However, the systems can be used in lower quality
modes, which can degrade picture quality, to allow for a slower rate of data transfer and to reduce the amount of video data stored. The picture
quality can be degraded by either lowering the resolutio
n, reducing the picture rate, or both. A picture degraded by having a reduced resolution
may result in an image that is less clear or even indiscernible. A picture degraded by reducing the picture rate has fewer frames per second,
which can result in images that appear to jump or move more quickly than normal during playback. Lower frame rates may result in a key event
not being recorded by the sy
stem.
Judgment as to the suitability of the products for users’ purposes is solely the users’ responsibility. Users shall determine the suitability of the
products for their own intended application, picture rate and picture quality. In the event users intend to use the video for evidentiary purposes in
a judicial proceeding or otherwise, users should consult with their attorney regarding any particular requirements for such use.

Installation
NOTE: Pelco megapixel (MP) iCS lenses have been designed and tested to deliver optimal image quality for
the IXE Series box camera. This camera only accepts iCS lenses. Using a non-iCS lens may damage the
camera. Please contact Pelco for more information.
1. Install the iCS lens.
a. Remove the outer cover from the lens mount.
Figure 2. Remove the Cover from the Lens Mount
b. Tighten the iCS lens onto the lens mount. Be careful to prevent dust from entering the space
between the iCS lens and the imager. If necessary, use clean, compressed air to remove any foreign
matter (refer to the instructions shipped with the iCS lens). Make sure the lens does not touch the
camera imager when installed.
Figure 3. Tighten the iCS Lens Onto the Lens Mount
c. Connect the iCS lens cable to the 5-pin connector located on the side of the camera.

2. Install the camera on the mount in the desired location (refer to the installation/operations manual for
the recommended mount). The camera can be attached to the mount from either
the top or bottom
threaded 1/4-20 threaded mounting hole, depending on the type of camera mount used in your
installation.
3. Connect the cables to the camera. Refer to the Connecting the Cables section for wiring instructions and
the Product Overview for connector port locations.
4. Apply power to the camera. The camera will complete a configuration sequence. The Status LED
Indicators located on the front and back can be used to identify the stage the camera is at in it’s
configuration.
5. Refer to
Accessing the Camera section to view the camera image.
6. the camera field of view is set by adjusting zoom and focus via the Web UI. Refer to the operations
manual.
CONNECTING THE CABLES
The I/O interfaces appear on the back of the camera module (Refer to Figure 1). Make the appropriate
connections.
C6659M (10/21) 13
ETHERNET WIRING REQUIREMENT FOR POE
Connect a Cat5e cable or higher cable (not supplied) to the RJ-45 network connector. The 8-pin port includes
video over Ethernet, and PoE for the camera. PoE injects power over the same cabling that carries the
network data, eliminating the need for a separate power supply. This simplifies the installation and
operation of the camera without affec
ting network performance.
Figure 6. Pin Numbering
Figure 7. Pin Functions
POWER WIRING
To wire the connector, use a small slotted screw driver to depress the connector tabs and then insert cables
into the power connector. Attach the cables as shown in Figure 1 (e.g. Pin 1 is 12 VDC or 24 VAC 1; Pin 2 is
GND or 24 VAC 2).
NOTES:
• 12 VDC or 24 VAC may be used instead of PoE or in addition to PoE for power
failover in case PoE/
network is temporarily lost.
• Power failover is only supported when the camera is connected to a dedicated auxiliary power supply, 12
VDC/24 VAC. No other cameras can be connected to this auxiliary power supply. It is OK for the camera
to share PoE from a switch that has other cameras connected to it.

ACCESSING THE CAMERA
Anyone who access the camera can view live video. If you want to prevent users from viewing video without
logging in, you must change the permissions for public users.
The recommended browsers for your camera are the latest version of Microsoft™ Edge™, Google Chrome™
browser, or Mozilla® Firefox®. for supported browser versions, refer to the specification sheet.
1. Open a web browser.
2. Type the camera’s IP address (192.168.0.20) or host name in your browser’s address bar, and the press
Enter.
NOTE: You can obtain your camera’s IP address or access the camera using the VxToolbox software. If DHCP
is enabled but a DHCP server is not on the network, the camera automatica
lly assigns itself both an IPv4 link
local address (169.254.x.x, where the lower two octets are random) and a 192.168.0.20 address. Additional
cameras will assign themselves different IPv4 link local addresses and the next available 192.168.0xIP
addresses in sequential order. For example, if three cameras are connected to a network without a DHCP
server, the first camera to connect assigns itself
the IP address 192.168.0.20, the second camera assigns
itself 192.168.0.21, and the third camera assigns itself 192.168.0.22.
3. Click Login.
4. If needed, type your user name and password.
NOTE: For security purposes, it is recommended that you create a user account when you login to the
camera for the first time.

• In its out-of-the-box configuration, the camera has no user name and password assigned. For security
purposes, it is recommended that you set an administrative user name and password after initial
configuration of the camera. Creation of an administrative user name changes the state of the camera to
its “operational mode,” where credentials must be provided in order to change its configuration.
• There is no provision for recovering a forgotten administrator user name or pass
word. The camera can
be restored to its out-of-the-box, no-password configuration by depressing the Defaults button with an
object such as a paper clip, and holding the button down for at least four seconds.
• If a user name and password exist, a Login link appears in the upper right area of your web browser.
