RC8326 Wireless Indoor Day/Night HD Camera Installation Guide 13 Chapter 3 ADT Pulse Enrollment Smart IR Function The RC8326 uses a smart IR function for night viewing. This means that the camera automatically adjusts the IR light output and gain. As a result, if any objects are in the close foreground of the image, the camera lowers the IR light output to prevent overexposing those objects. The drawback of the smart IR function is that this feature causes background objects to receive less IR light and to be displayed with lessened detail. This result is typical for the smart IR function. To get the best video quality for targets at night, make sure that the cameras field of view does not include a large foreground object, such as tabletop or side wall. If installing on a tabletop, place the camera as close to the edge as possible, as demonstrated in the photos in row 1 below. If installing on a wall, angle the camera so that a minimal portion of the wall is visible, as demonstrated in the photos in row 2 below. TABLETOP WALL If the Camera Continually Goes Offline If after enrolling it the camera, it continually goes offline (Power LED blinks continually), the camera will automatically attempt to recover the wireless connection. If the camera cannot recover on its own, take the following measures to re-establish the Wi-Fi connection. 1. Power cycle the camera. 2. If the previous measure fails, move the gateway closer to the camera. 3. If the previous measure fails, press the cameras reset button for 15 seconds, and then re-enroll the camera into Pulse. 4. If the previous measure fails, install a Wi-Fi Range Extender model WN3000RPH-2ADPAS. 14 RC8326 Wireless Indoor Day/Night HD Camera Installation Guide Chapter 4 Wall Mounting 4 This section provides details for final mounting of the RC8326 HD Camera. You should ensure that the camera is configured and enrolled in ADT Pulse before permanently mounting it. 1. Locate the mounting plate at the bottom of the camera stand and slide the mounting plate forward to release it from the stand. 2. Hold the mounting plate at the location where you would like to mount the camera and mark the location of the two mounting holes. 3. Drill two pilot holes on the mounting surface at the marked locations. 4. Align the two mounting holes on the camera stand with the two pilot holes, and mount the mounting plate to the surface using the two screws supplied. Figure 6: Installing the Mounting Plate 5. Slide the camera stand onto the mounting plate until it clicks into place. Figure 7: Mounting the Camera Stand RC8326 Wireless Indoor Day/Night HD Camera Installation Guide 15 Chapter 4 Wall Mounting 6. Remove the cable organizer from the stand. Insert the cables into the hole, run cables through the organizer, and then replace it on the stand. 7. Connect the power cable into the back of the camera and plug the adapter end into a power outlet. CAUTION: Use only the power adapter provided. Using a different one can result in hardware damage. Figure 8: Routing the Cable 8. Screw/attach the camera onto the camera stand. Figure 9: Attaching the Camera 9. Adjust the camera to a desired position and secure it firmly. 10. Verify that the camera is active on the wireless network and is recognized by ADT Pulse. Note: If the camera does not re-connect, use of the ADT Wi-Fi extender (part no. WN3000RPH-2ADPAS) may be recommended to improve wireless connectivity. 16 RC8326 Wireless Indoor Day/Night HD Camera Installation Guide Appendix A Specifications RC8326 Wireless Day/Night HD Camera A Dimensions W x H x D Operating Temperature 2.56 x 2.56 x 1.34 (65mm x 65mm x 34mm) 32F to 104F (0C to 40 C) Video Compression H.264 and MJPEG Image Resolution 1280x 720, 640x480, 320x 240 (QVGA) Storage Temperature Network Protocols Network Interface Wireless Interface
