5. Setup
5.1 Physical Installation
The XNF-8010RV is designed for outdoor mounting. Select a location that provides the desired field of view and is within reach of network and power connections. Use the provided mounting template to mark drilling points. Secure the camera firmly to the mounting surface using appropriate screws and anchors.

5.2 Connections
The camera primarily uses an RJ45 connection for network and Power over Ethernet (PoE). Connect a standard Ethernet cable from your PoE-enabled network switch or PoE injector to the camera's RJ45 port. If not using PoE, connect a 12VDC power adapter (sold separately) to the camera's power input and an Ethernet cable to a standard network switch.

5.3 Network Configuration
After physical installation and connection, the camera will obtain an IP address from your network's DHCP server. Use the Hanwha Techwin Device Manager software (available on the official Hanwha Techwin website) to discover the camera on your network, change its default password, and configure network settings such as static IP address, if required. Access the camera's web interface by entering its IP address into a web browser for further configuration.
6. Operating Instructions
6.1 Basic Operation
Once configured, the camera streams video over the network. You can view live footage, record video, and manage settings through the camera's web interface or a compatible Network Video Recorder (NVR) / Video Management System (VMS). Refer to the software documentation for detailed instructions on using these platforms.
6.2 Advanced Features
The XNF-8010RV supports various advanced features:
- WiseStream II: Configure video compression settings to optimize bandwidth and storage.
- WDR (Wide Dynamic Range): Adjust WDR settings to improve image clarity in scenes with high contrast.
- Video Analytics: Enable and configure built-in analytics such as Sound Classification, Heatmap, People Counting, and Queue Line Management via the camera's web interface.
- SD Card Recording: Set up recording schedules and event-triggered recording to the dual SD card slots for local storage.
7. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your camera:
- Lens Cleaning: Gently clean the camera lens with a soft, lint-free cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a lens cleaning solution designed for optical surfaces. Avoid abrasive materials.
- Housing Cleaning: Wipe the camera housing with a damp cloth. Do not use strong detergents or solvents.
