Appropriate Use
The MDF5250HD-DN is a high-resoluon single-sensor network camera with separate housings for the lens-sensor unit and the connected encoder unit.
The module camera is designed for indoor installaons and can be operated with Power-over-Ethernet (PoE, Class 0, IEEE 802.3af) or powered by an
external 24 V DC power supply unit.
Due to its compact design and by means of the supplied mounng bracket (2-part), the module camera is suitable, for example, for the installaon in
ATMs, gaming tables and display panels.
Equipped with a 1/4"-20 (20 turns per inch) UNC tripod socket on the top and boom side, the lens-sensor unit also ts on all common brackets or
tripods with standardized tripod screws (UNC 1/4"-20).
PlaceofInstallaon
The device is designed for indoor use.
NOTICE
Damagetothedeviceduetounsuitablemounnglocaon
The device is intended for indoor use only.
The installaon of the device in outdoor areas is not permied and may result in malfuncons, damages, data loss and the loss of warranty.
➡Do not install and operate the device in outdoor environments.

Commissioning MDF5250HD-DN
Operaon
➡Observe the following notes for operang the device:
• If the device or the cables connected to the device are located near sources with strong radiaon (e.g. radio transmiers, magnec elds), the video
image may be distorted.
• The device is equipped with Automac Gain Control (AGC). In low-light condions the image may be altered (e.g. noise). This is not a malfuncon.
• The video image quality depends on the lighng condions and the used monitor.
• The accuracy of the Automac White Balance (AWB) algorithm depends on the used lighng.
Mixed light (consisng of arcial light and daylight) may cause color distorons (inaccurate color reproducon).
• Poor lighng can lead to an incorrect white balance.
Approvals/Cercaons
The following approvals/cercaons were valid for the device at the me of this document’s compilaon:
• CE
• DIN 50130-4 compliant
Visit www.dallmeier.com for possible updates.
Note(USA)
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.

WARNING
Electricalshockcausedbyexposedelectricalpartsandduetothelackoforimpropergrounding/earthing
Risk of death or serious injury
➡The installaon of the device and the connecon of peripheral equipment may only be carried out by qualied personnel and in a
voltage-free state.
➡Before connecng or disconnecng an external DC power supply unit, make sure that the power supply unit is disconnected from the
mains socket (pull the power plug out of the socket).
➡Carry out all protecve measures for a standard-compliant grounding/earthing of the device in accordance with the currently
applicable DIN, VDE and ISO standards in order to ensure the safety of persons (protecon against dangerous contact voltages).
NOTICE
Damagetothedeviceduetoimproperpowersupply
Damage to electronic components or serious malfuncons
➡Always ensure the correct polarity when connecng an external DC power supply unit.
➡Do not operate the device with Power over Ethernet (PoE) if the device is powered by an external DC power supply unit.
Damagetothedeviceormalfunconsduetothelackoforimpropergrounding/earthing
Damage to electronic components caused by lightning strikes and over-voltages (electrical surges) or malfuncons due to electromagnec
interferences
➡Carry out all protecve measures for a standard-compliant grounding/earthing and a correct equipotenal bonding of the device in
accordance with the currently applicable DIN, VDE and ISO standards in order to ensure the safety of the device (protecon against
over-voltages) and its immunity to electromagnec interferences (EMI).

16 Rev. 1.0.0 | © 2020 Dallmeier | www.dallmeier.com
MDF5250HD-DN Commissioning
If you operate the device with Power over Ethernet (PoE), observe the following notes:
NOTICE
DamagetothecontactsoftheRJ45connectorsbycontacterosionwhenun-mangthejack-plugconneconunderPoEload
Un-mang the jack-plug connecon while transming PoE power causes erosion and ping by electrical arcs on both the jack and plug
contacts (especially when repeatedly un-mang the jack-plug connecon under PoE load).
Electrical arcs are generated, since the electric potenal dierence (voltage) and therefore the intensity of the electric eld between the
contacts rises sharply when un-mang the jack-plug connecon.
The more un-mang cycles are carried out under PoE load, the higher the loss of contact material due to metal evaporaon by electrical
arcs, which in turn accelerates the material erosion process on the contact surfaces.
Damaged contacts with an increased contact resistance may lead to a reduced data transfer rate, unreliable network connecvity or even
total device failure.
➡Always disable PoE on the relevant port of your PoE switch (or PoE midspan device) or disconnect the used single-port PoE injector
from the power supply before un-mang the jack-plug connecon in order to prevent damage to the contacts of the RJ45 connectors
by contact erosion.
