Introduction

Thank you for purchasing this CCTV camera 

from ZOSI. This camera can operate in almost 

all light conditions, from bright daylight (provided 

it’s not irradiated directly by the sun) to pitch 

darkness.
The camera is very sensitive to light and 

therefore can make use of even a tiny little of 

light to create an image of what it captured. 

When it is in low light, this comes out as a black 

and white image.
In total darkness or near-total darkness 

environment, the camera uses built-in infrared 

LEDs to illuminate the area in front of it. This 

light is invisible to the human eye, although 

you might notice a faint red glow coming 

from the front of the camera, which is normal 

phenomenon.
In day or well-lit environment, the IR Cut Filter 

feature of the camera can filter out wavelengths 

of light that is useless to cameras in order to 

provide a clear color image.

Important note

All jurisdictions have specific laws 

and regulations relating to the use of came-

ras. Before using any camera for any purpose, 

it is the buyer’s responsibility to be aware of all 

applicable laws and regulations that prohibit or 

limit the use of cameras. And also buyer must 

comply with the applicable laws and regulations.

Warning

Modifications not approved by the party 

responsible for compliance could void user’s 

authority to operate the equipment.

Important safety instructions

1) Make sure product is installed correctly and 

fastened stably.
2) Do not operate it if wires and terminals are 

exposed.

Choosing a Location for this Camera

To get optimal effect from camera, where you install cameras is pivotal. You should consider the 
distance between the camera and its subject to ensure you obtain a good view of the areas in focus. 
Also think about the appropriate mounting places (e.g., under the eaves of a roof is a good choice) 

where it won’t be either an easy target for vandals or affected by constant light reflections of moving 

vehicles (which can cause falsely triggered motion detection). There are numerous factors you 
should consider when choosing a location to mount your camera, not merely involves where you 
want to monitor.

To mount the camera

Place the camera in the location where you want to mount it, and mark screw holes on its surface to 

fix the screws. Then, using proper screws for the surface where you prepare to fix the camera. Screw 

the camera stably into the place.
If you’re going to mount camera on a wooden surface, then screw the camera directly to the surface.
If you’re going to mount camera on a masonry surface (bricks, concrete or similar) , then you'll need 
to use the included wall plugs.

Mounting the Camera

The camera can be mounted onto a fl at, vertical surface using screws. The surface must have 
suffi cient strength to hold the camera. Materials such as hardwood, brick or masonry are good 

options, You can mount the camera onto a metal surface, but you’ll need to supply your own 
mounting hardware.

Position the Cables

1.When setting your cable, try to avoid 
winding it on objects with sharp angles.

2. Don’t put your cable close to live 
electrical wiring. AC electricity will 
generate radio “noise”, which can 
interfere with camera’s signal.

3. All wiring and connectors must be 
insulated in suitably. Meanwhile, they 
also should be protected from moisture 
and sunlight because they are not of 
weather resistant.

Troubleshooting

Q: Video Loss appears in my monitor where should have displayed image? 
A: 

1. Check whether the extension cable (power and video) is securely connected to the camera.

    2.Check whether the video output from the camera is securely connected to the video input channel on 

the DVR.

    3.Check whether the power from the camera is firmly connected to power supply.

Q: When I view an image from the camera at night I only see a bright spot and no image?
A:

 A reflection can happen in night vision mode if the camera is looking through a window. At night, 

camera’s infrared lights begin to operate, which can reflex bright surface (such as glass, water, spider 

webs, ceramics and so on) and effectively blind the camera. If you want to see outside, you should mount 
the camera outside. We made it weatherproof for a reason.

Q: The BNC extension cable are not applicable to my TV?
A

: Many TV or monitors do not have the BNC connector but have the RCA connector. Connect the BNC to 

RCA converter in the end of the extension cable, and then plug it into the RCA video input port on your 
TV or monitor.
