The BZBGEAR BG-ADAMO-JRND is an ultra-high-definition PTZ camera. Upon power-on, the camera performs a self-check, panning and tilting to its home position. The remote control is paired by default; if re-pairing is needed, press the 'set' and '*' keys for 3 seconds. The default IP address for web access is 192.168.5.163.
Installation and Mounting
Wall Mounting: Ensure the bracket is mounted to a wooden or concrete wall. Use the provided anti-vibrate cushion, wall mounting bracket, and M6 bolts. Secure the camera to the bracket using the 1/4-20 UNC bolt.
Ceiling Mounting: Follow the specific ceiling mounting instructions provided in the manual, ensuring the use of the upper and lower cover plates and appropriate screws.
Auto-Tracking Configuration
The camera features two auto-tracking modes accessible via the web interface under 'Track Configuration':
- Presenter Mode: Continuously tracks the subject. You can adjust the 'Headroom' setting (Low, Medium, High).
- Zone Mode: Holds the frame in predetermined zones. The camera moves only when the subject leaves one zone and enters another. Requires setting up at least 2 (up to 4) regions using the 'Set' button in the web interface.
Network and Web Interface
To access the web interface, ensure your computer is on the 192.168.5.x subnet. Enter 192.168.5.163 in your browser. Default administrator credentials are username 'admin' and password 'admin'. From here, you can configure network settings, video encoding, and system parameters.
Streaming and NDI
The camera supports multiple streaming protocols including RTSP and RTMP. Configure these under 'Video Encode' and 'Stream Publish' in the web interface. NDI is enabled by default; you can customize the NDI Name and Group in the NDI settings menu.
Serial Control
The camera supports RS232/RS485 control using VISCA, PELCO-D, and PELCO-P protocols. The manual provides detailed command packets for functions like Pan/Tilt, Zoom, Focus, and Preset management.
Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Maintenance: Clean the lens with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid strong or corrosive detergents. Disconnect power when not in use for extended periods.
Troubleshooting: If there is no video output, check power, PoE status, and cable connections. If the remote control fails, check batteries and ensure the camera is not in the OSD menu. For network issues, verify the subnet configuration.
