Cautions and Warnings
WARNING Installation and servicing should be performed only by qualified and
experienced technicians to conform to all local codes and to maintain your warranty.
WARNING Use only with the supplied power cable. Power output: 120W for 8 channels /
200W for 16 channels (1-8 channels cannot be exceeded 100W and 9-16 channels cannot be
exceeded 100W) PoE 802.3at in total.
CAUTION The Honeywell product uses a 3.0V CR1220 lithium battery as the power
supply for its internal real-time clock (RTC). Low battery power affects the operation of the
RTC, causing it to reset at every power-up.
Risk of explosion if the battery is incorrectly replaced.
Dispose of used batteries according to local regulations or the battery manufacturer's
instructions.
Replace only with an identical battery or a battery which is recommended by Honeywell.
