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.

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.
