Precautions
• This camera should be installed by qualied personnel only.
• There are no user serviceable parts inside.
• Do not disassemble this camera other than to make initial adjustments.
• Use a UL approved regulated 24 volt AC or 12 volt DC power supply.
• Use appropriate low voltage power cable to prevent re or electrical shock.
• Please insure that your installation area can support the weight of the camera.
Handle this camera carefully
• Do not use a strong or abrasive detergent when cleaning the camera.
• Do not install near cooling or heating devices.
• Do not install the camera in extreme temperature conditions. Use the camera in environments where temperature
is within 14°F to 122°F. Use adequate ventilation if a camera is installed where high temperatures may occur.
• Do not install or use the camera in an environment where the humidity is high. Very high humidity levels can
reduce image quality.
• Do not install the camera under unstable lighting conditions. Severe lighting change or icker can cause the camera
to work improperly.
• Do not touch the front lens of the camera. Be careful not to leave ngerprints on the lens cover.
• Do not drop the camera or subject it to physical shocks.
• Do not expose the camera to rain or spill liquids on it. If it gets wet, wipe dry immediately. Liquids can contain
minerals that corrode the electronic components.
• Do not expose the camera to radioactivity. If exposed to radioactivity the CCD will fail.
• Do not disassemble the camera. There are no user-serviceable parts inside it.
• Do not drop the camera or subject them to physical shocks. It can cause malfunctions to occur.
• Never point the camera at a strong light, or exposing it to a spotlight or an object reecting the strong light.
Smear or blooming may occur, and it can damage the CCD.
• Before applying power to the camera, check the power source to ensure that it is within specications.

Installation
2.1 General Guidelines
• Camera Lens: Handle the camera carefully to prevent scratching or soiling the lens. If the lens or IR array shield becomes
soiled, clean it only with approved products. See the Cleaning section later in this manual.
• Monitor impedance: Set the monitor impedance switch to 75Ω.
• Power supply: To avoid re or shock hazard, use only a UL listed power supply.
• Camera drop cable: The camera drop cable includes two connectors:
—Power connector (red sleeve) – Use 24 Vac power source (AC24V 1A adapter) or 12 Vdc power source (DC12V
1A adapter). When applying 12 Vdc power, observe the power polarity. Power polarity indicators are molded onto the
power connector sleeve (see the picture below).
—Video coax connector (BNC, yellow sleeve) – for transmission of the video signal across coax (75 Ω) cable.

2.2 Mounting the camera
The camera can be mounted on any surface with sucient strength to support it. The video/power drop cable from the camera can
be routed either through the cable hole in the center of the base plate, or through a cable guide in the mounting bracket.
1. Using the camera mounting plate as a guide, mark the location of the screws that anchor the mounting plate to the
mounting surface. If you are routing the drop cable through base, also mark the position of the hole for the drop cable.
NOTE Position the mounting plate so that the cable guide in the mounting bracket is pointing away from any source of
water, dust, and other contaminates.
2. Drill holes for the screws that anchor the base to the mounting plate to the surface. Four (4) course-threaded screws are
provided. However, depending on the surface materials, more appropriate fasteners may be required.

structure.
5. Route the drop cable through the hole through the base plate, or through the cable guide in the mounting bracket, then
attach the camera to the mounting plate using the four (4) machine screws provided.
6. Connect the camera drop cable to video and power cables as required.
NOTE Drop cable connectors are not waterproof.
