JVC VN-686WPBU User Manual

Power can be supplied to this camera either by 
connecting to an AC 24 V power supply or using 
PoE (

● If power is supplied from both power cable 

and LAN cable, priority will be given to the 
power supply from the power cable.

● Be sure to use an AC 24 V supply that is 

isolated from the primary power supply 
circuit. Using a variable voltage power supply 
will cause the camera and system to 
malfunction or breakdown.

● The unit is to be powered by an AC 24 V 

power supply. The AC 24 V power supply 
should conform to the following: Class 2 only 
(For USA), Isolated power supply only (For 
Europe and others).

This connects the camera to AC 24 V power.

When using 2-core VVF (Vinyl-insulated vinyl-
sheath cable), the connection distance is as 
follows: (Reference value)

● After DHCP timeout, all IP addresses of camera are 

set to 192.168.0.2 by default.

 

If the power of multiple cameras within the same LAN 
environment are turned on at the same time, the IP 
addresses of the cameras overlap, thus preventing 
proper access. As such, make sure to turn on the 
power of the cameras one by one.

● In a system where multiple units of camera are used, 

turn on the power of only one unit to configure the IP 
address settings using the Internet Explorer. Upon 
doing so, turn on the power of the second unit and 
configure accordingly. Configure the subsequent 
camera settings using the same procedure.

● When there is an overlap of IP address, access to the 

camera may fail. When this occurs, turn on the power 
of only one camera unit within the same LAN 
environment and wait for a while (at least 10 minutes). 
Alternatively, turn off the power of all network devices 
connected to the same LAN environment, followed by 
turning them on again.

● If thin cables are used, the resistance of the cables will 

be high and a significant voltage drop will occur when 
the camera is at its maximum power consumption 
(when pan, tilt and zoom operates at the same time). 
Either use a thick cable with low resistance or place 
the power supply near to the camera and shorten the 
length of the cable to restrict the voltage drop at the 
rated current of the camera to below 10 %. If voltage 
drops during operation, the camera may experience 
unstable performance and be unable to call up the 
preset position correctly.

● Do not connect an AC 24 V cable to AC 110 V/AC 230 

V power supply. The camera internal circuit will be 
damaged. Should that happens, do not use the 
camera. Bring it to your nearest JVC dealer for repair. 
(charged separately)

● Turn on the power only after the connection for all the 

devices is complete.

● After the power is turned on and activation is 

completed, this product will move to the home 
position. The default home position settings for pan, 
tilt, and zoom are 1.00 °, 45 °, and x1 respectively.

● The rated power of this product is AC 24 V, 50 

Hz/60 Hz. Make sure to use it with the correct 
voltage.

● Supplying a power beyond the rated value 

may result in failures, smoke or fire. If the 
camera breaks down, turn off the power and 
contact our service center immediately.

● When a power beyond the rated value is 

supplied, the internal components may be 
damaged even if no abnormality is found on 
the appearance and operation of the camera. 
Please contact your nearest JVC dealer 
immediately for servicing (charged 
separately).
