Recently scored a few cheapie Imou bullet IPC-F22A at a discounted price because somebody don't like it..

Imou is the consumer brand of dahua and is a stripped down version of dahua cameras thus there's no web interface to configure it.
However, can configure it easily by the app, dahua config tool or dahua nvr. No internet connection necessary for the last 2 method.

It is the 2MP camera with the usual 1/2.8” 2 Megapixel Progressive CMOS , cpu is a sc325 chip.

As the previous owner has initialised it with password, i need to open it up to gain access to the reset pins..
Opening it up is relatively straight forward, just un-clip the front cover to access the 4 screws underneath, unscrew it to access the camera module..
There are another 6 screws required to be undone to remove the pcb entirely from the mount.

Reset pins are circled red in the pic below.

happy to answer any questions if any about this camera..

Thanks @holiday

Looks like a nice 2MP camera from the specs.

fyi - I've posted the IMOU info below for reference, as in the past the imou website has had changes and some documentation moved on us.

I seen ssc325 chip using 3mp cmos in dahua ipcam.
Resolution 2304*1296.
It seems that F22A and China K3XA are the same cam.
 
If you could measure the voltage your poe switch provides, surely it would work with a passive poe injector as well.
 
Yes. I just used Encode/Overlay/Channel Title and put in 10 spaces then clicked Apply them moved the overlay box to cover the IMOU logo and apply and then save. Make sure you are on the latest SmartPSS
