1 Overview
The Oncam Evolution 12 IP Series cameras are innovative and use a fisheye lens to create a
360° view with an extremely large area of coverage. The Oncam 360° IP camera may replace two
or more conventional fixed cameras for seamless coverage of an entire scene with no gaps or
blind spots. The ability to see in all directions at once makes Oncam 360° IP cameras ideally
suited for total situational awareness.
The 12‐megapixel sensor produces enough detail to allow digital pan/tilt/zoom (PTZ) operations
over the entire field of view (FoV). Unlike conventional PTZ cameras, Oncam 360° IP cameras
are silent. Oncam 360° IP cameras have no mechanical motors or gears prone to wear and
failure. The camera produces three types of views, each suited to a particular set of
requirements.
1.1 Fisheye View
The high quality fisheye lens produces a spherical image from which derive all other views. The
raw image appears warped around a central axis. Special dewarping software built into the
NVR / VMS converts the spherical image into a flat view that is more familiar to human viewers.
When using video management software (VMS) to record a fisheye video stream, the entire
image is preserved, allowing you to ‘retrospectively’ look at all directions, regardless of the area
being viewed live or when viewing recorded video after an incident has occurred.
1.2 Virtual Camera Views (VCams)
The camera is capable of creating up to four user defined pre-dewarped views derived from the
main fisheye view at the head. Using the camera web interface, you select a key area of
interest from the fisheye overview and create a view similar to the look and feel of a traditional
narrow field of view (FoV) camera. These camera views become separate ONVIF compatible
streams for recording and control on a compatible VMS/NVR system.
Note: VCam mode is disabled (default). When enabling VCam you remove the cameras ability
to stream a secondary fisheye view.
1.3 Panoramic View
When using compatible VMS or NVR software integrated with the Oncam dewarping SDK, it is
possible to generate a double 180-degree panoramic view from fisheye overview. The fisheye
image is dewarped and split into two 180-degree bands for simpler viewing of the overall
image.
Note: Due to the dewarping image cropping, the area directly underneath the camera is not
visible. Unlike the VCams, the camera does not generate the 180-degree panoramic view. The
camera requires a compatible client machine with software to produce this panoramic view.
1.4 Camera Range
Configure the camera module for either an H.264 or MJPEG single stream.
12 (maximum) FPS with a frame size of 3200 x 3000 pixels (9.6 MP)
14 (maximum) FPS with a frame size of 2528 x 2376 pixels (6 MP)
14 (maximum) FPS with a frame size of 2080 x 1960 pixels (4 MP)
14 (maximum) FPS with a frame size of 1472 x 1384 pixels (2 MP)
14 (maximum) FPS with a frame size of 1056 x 992 pixels (1 MP)
14 (maximum) FPS with a frame size of 544 x 512 pixels (1/4 MP)
Enable and configure a second H.264 fisheye stream. If enabling the second stream the
maximum frame rates of both the main stream and the second stream are reduced
(see Table 2 Maximum Frame Rates, page 48).

If the second H.264 fisheye stream is not required, enable up to four VCam streams.
Fisheye1 H.264 stream (9.6 MP, 6 MP, 4 MP or 2 MP) + 1x H.264 VCam
(0.25 or 1 MP)
Fisheye1 H.264 stream (9.6 MP, 6 MP, 4 MP or 2 MP) + 2x H.264 VCams
(0.25 or 1 MP)
Fisheye1 H.264 stream (9.6 MP, 6 MP, 4 MP or 2 MP) + 3x H.264 VCams
(0.25 or 1 MP)
Fisheye1 H.264 stream (9.6 MP, 6 MP, 4 MP or 2 MP) + 4x H.264 VCams
(0.25 or 1 MP)
Simultaneously access a third MJPEG stream that will mirror the resolution of Fisheye2.
The camera module design allows for easy and fast installation into the corresponding camera
module housing options.
1.5 Power Requirements
Supply power in two ways using either Power over Ethernet (PoE) or Direct DC Input.
PoE. Connect power and data using an Ethernet cable plugged into the camera Ethernet port.
The PoE supplied equipment must be compliant with IEEE 802.3AF.
Direct DC Input. Use only a UL/CSA‐approved LPS or NEC Class 2 power source with a
12 VDC 1A AC adapter (not supplied). The power source must have a wired plug connector
with the correct polarity (+ve center). Connect to the camera through the 12 VDC socket. This
connector is a 2.1 mm positive center jack.
CAUTION: Do not use an excess of 12 VDC from an external power supply. Doing so may
damage the camera and void the warranty.
1.6 Audio Input
The camera mic input follows the computer industry standard for PC mic inputs. The physical
connector is a 3.5 mm stereo audio jack. As wired, it works with an ordinary Electret
microphone.
Audio Input connects the camera module to an electret microphone in close proximity to the
enclosure. The electret microphone and the connecting cable must be electrically floating to
prevent noise and hum from ground loops.
Suggested cable length is 1 meter or less. Any length longer than this results in noise
interference with the audio.
Contact Oncam for compatible microphones.
1.7 Alarms
The camera module has 1x input and 1x output hardware alarms connected through a hardwire
plug connector.

2 Camera Placement and Orientation
Camera placement is an important factor when planning your deployment. The Evolution 12
camera has an exceptionally wide viewing angle. Consider the camera location for providing
comprehensive coverage of a wide area. Mount the camera with an unobstructed view and
consider scene optimization when one portion of the scene is bright and another dark.
The camera supports three different mounting orientations, Ceiling, Wall and Table. Each of
these options require correct orientation settings selected from the Camera Web Interface. These
camera settings ensure using the correct dewarping algorithm when connecting to a compatible
VMS or NVR system.
2.1 Ceiling Mount
Ceiling mounting is preferred when
most of the action is occurring
below the camera in a horizontal
plane. When a person is directly
below the camera, captured is the
top‐of head view. When the person
moves away from the camera, more
of their face and body becomes
visible.
Depending on the use case, use a
single camera to cover a small to
medium sized room. Mounting a
camera high gives great situational
awareness throughout a large room.
When planning coverage ensure
there are no obstructions. Some
obstructions include pillars, high-
sided furniture and any hanging
objects near the camera such as
signage.

2.2 Wall Mount
Wall mounting the camera can give a complete 180-degree side on view of an area. Use this
view where ceiling mounting is not possible or if you need to capture a higher level of detail for
objects closer to the camera (such as people’s faces as they walk past the camera).
2.3 Table Mount
Mount the Table Mount camera on a flat surface looking up. While this mount is for
demonstration or testing purposes, you could use this mount in a system. Use the Table Mount
for inspecting systems or viewing under vehicles.

2.4 Coverage Area
The Evolution 12 cameras provide coverage for open areas where situational awareness of
people and objects are required.
The higher camera placement provides a larger coverage area. However, with higher camera
placement a reduction in the pixel density is expected. Height impacts the image detail
available, therefore ensure you consider image quality versus the mounting height.
Perform tests to ensure that the camera meets the system operational requirements and the
required detail level is available.
Use a minimum height of 2 m (6.5 ft.) when ceiling mounting a camera for best results.
For multiple camera layouts, ensure the camera areas overlap for full coverage.
2.5 Overhead Viewing Angle
Ceiling‐mounted cameras capture a top‐of‐head shot when the person is directly under the
camera. Hats extend that top-of‐head zone to some degree. Consider the viewing angle when
requiring people identification or recognition.
2.6 Lighting
Avoid bright light sources pointing towards the camera lens. Always face lighting away from the
camera or above the camera installation line (if ceiling mounted).
Adjust the auto-sensor in the camera from the Web Interface. Using auto-sensor adjusts the
camera continuously to optimize the image by increasing exposure time. Furthermore, the
maximum frame rate is reduced as exposure time increases. The image remains in full color
until below one Lux, after which it transitions to black and white for better contrast.

3 Camera Installation
For installation of your Oncam Evolution 12 camera, provided are the following instructions.
Reference the Camera Web Interface, page 39 for a more detailed features and functionality.
3.1 Preparation
Document the camera’s location and MAC address for camera configuration. Find the MAC
address on a sticker on the side and rear of the camera module.
3.1.1 Inserting an SD card
Configure an SD card for recording alarm-triggered events. The SD card slot is located on the
side of the camera module.
Compatible SD cards
SD, SDHC, SDXC
Up to 128 GB max capacity
Speed of Class 10 or higher
The camera uses the format EXT3, while most SD cards use the format FAT32. Therefore, it is
necessary to format the SD card to EXT3 prior to using the first time.
Use the camera to format the SD card for an EXT3 file system using the Camera Web
Interface. See Recordings, page 54.
In addition, you may use a computer to format several SD cards for an EXT3 file system. While
additional software is required, this method may be faster.
3.1.2 Ethernet and Power Cabling
