FAQs

Can I power this camera with just an Ethernet cable?

Yes, if your network switch supports PoE+ (Power over Ethernet), you can power the camera and transmit data using a single Ethernet cable.

Does the camera support manual control?

Absolutely. While the AI auto-tracking is a key feature, you can take full manual control of pan, tilt, and zoom via the web interface or a compatible hardware controller.

What is the benefit of NDI HX3?

NDI HX3 offers a balance of high image quality and low bandwidth usage, making it perfect for transmitting 4K video over standard gigabit networks.

Can this camera record video internally?

The camera is designed primarily as a live production capture device and does not feature onboard storage for video recording.

How do I update the camera firmware?

Firmware updates are performed through the camera's web-based admin interface by downloading the latest file from the official support site.

Troubleshooting

Camera not appearing on the network

Verify the IP address settings of the camera and your computer are on the same subnet.

AI tracking is jumping or losing the subject

Ensure there is adequate lighting on the subject and remove any large obstacles from the foreground.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For setup, connect the camera to your network switch using a high-quality Cat6 cable to utilize PoE+ for power. If you are not using PoE, connect the dedicated DC power supply. Configure the camera's IP address through the web interface to establish network discovery. Ensure the device is mounted securely using the pan/tilt bracket, ensuring that the range of motion is not obstructed. To care for your camera, always use a lens-grade microfiber cloth to clean the glass, keep the unit in a dust-free environment when not in use, and perform periodic firmware updates via the Atomos portal to ensure compatibility with the latest NDI protocols.
