Chapter 1 Introduction 2 Physical Details Front/Rear Panel Figure 1: Front/Rear Panel IR LEDs They are used to provide illumination for night time. Please ensure that the two IR LEDs can be revealed in the transparent Dome. Light Sensor This is a hardware sensor to detect lux. Please ensure that the light sensor can be revealed in the transparent Dome. Lens No physical adjustment is required for the lens. Please ensure that the lens cover remains clean. LAN port Use a standard Ethernet cable (not included) to connect the LAN port of the supplied cable and the Pulse Gateway or TS Base panel. Note: l Plugging in the Ethernet cable will disable the wireless interface. Only one interface can be active at any time. l The Ethernet cable should only be connected or disconnected when the camera is powered OFF. Attaching or detaching the Ethernet cable while the camera is powered on does NOT switch the interface between wired and wireless.
Chapter 1 Introduction 3 Power Interface Connect the two wires of the supplied cable to the terminal adapter. Do not use the other terminal adapters; doing so may damage the camera. Power Indicator (Green, Amber, Blue) On (Green) - Power on. Off – No power. Blinking (Green) - The LED will blink during start up or wireless connection is under association. On (Blue) - Network connection is available (wired or wireless). On (Amber) - If the LED is on for 5 seconds and then turns off, the WPS function has failed; or the heater is active. Blinking (Amber) – The WPS function is active. Note: If the data is being transmitted via WiFi/LAN, The color of the LED is blue in the mean time.

Make the Connection Using a Wired Connection If you are using a wired connection to the MDC835, connect a standard Ethernet cable (not included) to the LAN port of the supplied cable of the camera and the Pulse Gateway or Total Security (TS) Base panel. Using a Wireless Connection The wireless (WPS) connection between the camera and the Pulse Gateway or Total Security (TS) Base panel is performed during the Pulse enrollment. See the following section for more details. 2
Chapter 2 Basic Setup 6 NOTE NOTE: The Wireless and LAN interfaces cannot be used simultaneously. Making a wired LAN connection disables the wireless interface. 2. Power Up a. Run the AC Wire to the spice connector. b. Screw the red wire onto the positive(+) terminal of the terminal adapter. c. Screw the black wire onto the negative(-) terminal of the terminal adapter. d. Plug the terminal adapter into a power outlet. CAUTION: Only use the terminal adapter provided. Using a different adapter may cause hardware damage. 3. Check the LED The Power LED will turn on briefly, and then start blinking. It will blink during startup, which will take 60 to 90 seconds. After startup is completed, the Power LED should remain ON. 4. Enroll the Camera in ADT Pulse This process is described in the later chapter. After the enrollment, please check the image orientation. You may rotate the image 180 degrees by fast-clicking the WPS/Reset/Image Flip button twice. 5. Mount the Camera Place the camera in a desired location near a power source. For mounting on the ceiling with the mounting plate, see Chapter 4 for more details. Mounting Suggestion To get the best video quality for targets at night, make sure that the camera’s field of view does not include a foreground object, such as side wall or roof. Once installing on a ceiling, angle the camera so that a minimal portion of the wall is visible.
5 Chapter 3 Ceiling Mounting This Chapter provides details for final ceiling mounting of the IP Camera Ceiling Mounting Installation NOTE NOTE: Ensure that the camera is configured and enrolled in ADT Pulse before permanently mounting it. 1. Locate an unused indoor outlet to plug into the terminal adapter. The outlet should be located as close as possible to the location where the camera will be permanently mounted. CAUTION: Do not plug in the terminal adapter until all the connections are completed and the camera is fully mounted. 2. Identify the location where you would like to mount the camera. And then drill three holes on the ceiling based on the mounting template (last page). 3. Remove the sponge from the camera. And then use the L tool to remove the three screws and the bubble from the camera. 3
