Get Started With the Epiphan EC20 PTZ Camera

Welcome to your new Epiphan EC20, a high performance PTZ camera built to deliver outstanding video quality and seamless integration with your Epiphan gear.

You can find some quick start instructions below:

  1. Power on your camera, there are two options:
    • DC power – Plug in the DC power cable and flip the power switch
    • Power Over Ethernet Plus (PoE+) – Just connect a PoE+ cable to provide power and network access to the camera in one cable, and don’t forget to flip the power switch
  1. Connect to your network (optional but recommended):
    • Network access unlocks the full feature set of the EC20 through its web interface.
    • Plug in an Ethernet cable from your network to the EC20. The camera uses DHCP by default, so most networks will automatically assign it an IP address.
  1. Reboot the camera to apply changes
