Usage
•Use a power adapter or a PoE device that meets requirements. Otherwise, the device may
be damaged.
•Make sure the length of the power cable between the power adapter and the camera is not
too long, otherwise the voltage of the camera is lowered, causing the camera to work
abnormally. If it is required to lengthen the power cable, lengthen the cable between the
power adapter and the mains.
•Do not overbend the cables during the installation, otherwise, poor cable contact may cause
malfunction.
•When connecting to an external interface, use an existing connection terminal, and ensure
that the cable terminal (latch or clamp) is in good condition and properly fastened. Ensure
that the cable is not tense during mounting, with a proper margin reserved to avoid poor port
contact or loosening caused by shock or shake.
