5. సెటప్ మరియు ఇన్స్టాలేషన్
The IP CAM-1 is designed for straightforward installation. Follow these steps for optimal performance:
- మౌంటు స్థానాన్ని ఎంచుకోండి: Select a position that provides the desired field of view. The camera can be mounted rear-facing for use as a reverse camera or forward-facing for a view ahead of your vessel. Ensure the location is clear of obstructions and allows for proper cable routing.
- కెమెరాను మౌంట్ చేయండి: Secure the camera using the provided mounting hardware. Ensure a watertight seal if mounting in an exposed area. The 316 stainless steel housing is designed for direct exposure to marine elements.
- పవర్ కనెక్షన్:
- పవర్ ఓవర్ ఈథర్నెట్ (POE): If using POE, connect a compatible Ethernet cable from a POE-enabled network switch or injector directly to the camera's Ethernet port. This single cable will provide both power and data.
- 12V విద్యుత్ సరఫరా: If not using POE, connect the camera to a stable 12V DC power source. Ensure correct polarity (positive to positive, negative to negative) to prevent damage.
- నెట్వర్క్ కనెక్షన్: Connect the camera to your vessel's network via an Ethernet cable. The camera is preconfigured for direct integration with compatible Simrad, Lowrance, and B&G chartplotters.
- Initial Configuration (IP Address): After connecting, you may need to manually enter the camera's IP address on each compatible multifunction display (MFD) where you wish to view the camera feed. Refer to your MFD's user manual for specific instructions on adding IP cameras.
