Page 4: Assigning Ip Addresses
Assigning IP Addresses Currently, the MV63 series camera does not support static IP assignment. MV63 units must be added to a subnet that uses DHCP and has available DHCP addresses to operate correctly. Installation Instructions Note: During first-time setup, the MV93 series will automatically update to the latest stable firmware. Some features may be unavailable until this automatic update is completed. - Page 6 Microphone Cut-off Switch: The MV63 Series has a new microphone cut-off switch at the camera's base. This switch can be used to disable audio and override the Dashboard Audio Settings for an added layer of security. If the regulations require disabling audio or Dashboard control for Audio enablement needs to be disabled, the microphone cut-off switch can be leveraged and set to Disabled.

This step is very important and may damage the camera if done improperly. Note: If installing external conduit terminated at the camera, ensure the camera conduit adapter and terminal adapter are pulled over the camera pigtail before making the connection to avoid the risk of water damage leading to hardware failure and warranty void.
