Welcome to CCTV Camera Pros Surveillance Video Instruction Series.

In this video we will demonstrate how to connect a security camera to a stand alone surveillance DVR using BNC plug and play CCTV cables.
The following equipment is used in this video.
  • A 4 channel MPEG-4 surveillance DVR
  • A dome security camera
  • One set of 100ft BNC plug and play CCTV cables
We have placed all of our equipment on a table here.
Step one is to connect the plug and play cable to the DVR.
The male BNC connector on the cable very simple pushes and twists on to the female BNC input on the back of the DVR.
Next, grab the other end of the cable.
Attach the BNC connector to the security camera. Again, it simply pushes and twists on.
Next attach the power side of the cable to the power input of the camera. This simple pushes on.
Next, attach the power supply plug of the security camera to the other end of the plug and play cable.
Last, plug the power supply into a standard power outlet.
We hope that this video was helpful for you to understand how simple it is to hook up a security camera to a surveillance dvr using the equipment that CCTV Camera Pros supplies

Warnings and Cautions
• Handle the camera carefully
Do not abuse the camera. Avoid striking, shaking, etc. The camera could
be damaged by improper handing or storage.
• Do not disassemble the camera
To prevent electric shock, do not remove screws or covers. There are no
user serviceable parts inside. Ask a qualified service person for servicing.
• Do not block cooling holes on the bracket
This camera has a cooling fan inside. Blocking the cooling holes leads to
build up of heat the camera and may cause malfunction.
• Do not operate the camera beyond the specified temperature,
humidity or power source ratings
Use the indoor dome camera under conditions where temperature is
between 0°C ~ 40°C (32°F ~ 104°F) and the outdoor camera under
conditions where temperature is between -30°C~45°C (-22°F~104°F), and
humidity is below 90%.
• Do not expose the indoor dome camera to rain or moisture, or try to
operated it in wet areas
The indoor dome camera is designed for indoor use or locations where it
is protected from rain and moisture. Turn the power off immediately if the
camera is wet and ask a qualified service person for servicing. Moisture
can damage the camera and also create the danger of electric shock.
• Do not use strong or abrasive detergents when cleaning the camera
body
Use a dry cloth to clean the camera when dirty. In case the dirt is hard to
remove, use a mild detergent and wipe gently.
• Never face the camera towards the sun
Do not aim the camera at bright objects. Whether the camera is in use or
not, never aim it at the sun or other extremely bright objects. Otherwise,
the camera may be smeared or damaged.

NOTE:

To extend the network distance up to 1.2 km (4000 feet) and to
protect the connected devices, it is highly recommended to place a
repeater at the mid-point. However, a repeater may be needed in the network
distance less than 1.2 km if the used cables are not the CAT 5, 24-gauge
cables (see 3.4.4 RS-485 Connector). Refer to the repeater’s manual for
detailed information.
