1.2 Power Supply
When using 12VDC, ensure the supplied voltage meets the power consumption
requirements of this camera before powering the camera on. Incorrect voltage may
cause irreparable damage to the video camera and will effectively void the camera
warranty. The camera also comes with the built-in PoE power support.
1.3 Cleaning
• For maximum optical clarity, the camera or lens must remain clean. Use a soft,
dry cloth to remove finger prints and dust from the dome cover.
• Use a blower to remove dust from the lens.
• Clean the body with a soft, dry cloth. If it is very dirty, use a cloth dampened
with a small quantity of neutral detergent, then wipe dry.
• Do not use volatile solvents such as alcohol, benzene, or thinners, as they may
damage the surface finish.
1.4 Servicing
To avoid electrical shock and to preserve the product warranty, DO NOT disassemble
the camera. Refer servicing to qualified personnel only.
WARNING! DO NOT connect both PoE and DC12V power connectors
at the same time. For DC power supply use, make sure the polarity is
correct to avoid malfunction and / or camera damage.

3.3 Mounting and adjusting camera
This is a dual axis camera and thus a ceiling mounting instead of a wall mounting is
recommended in order to provide the camera with an optimal view. When installing
on a wall, choose a location and field of view that is straight in front of the camera
as much as possible.
To mount the camera, do the following:
1. Prepare the surface for mounting. Drill screw holes on the surface with
the supplied camera mounting template. (Figure 3-3). If you need to route
cables from the bottom of the camera, cut a hole in the ceiling. Alternatively, if
necessary, cables can be routed through the opening on the side of the camera’s
mounting base. (Figure 3-4).

2. Disassemble camera prior to mounting. Loosen the set screws on the
camera with the supplied hex key to remove the lower dome.
3. Attach the camera to the surface. Fix the mounting base on the surface
with the supplied screws.
4. Adjust the camera’s pan and tilt position to obtain an optimal view-
ing angle. Loosen the tilt lock screws inside the camera. Adjust the tilting posi-
tion within 65 degrees and tighten the tilt lock screws. Rotate the black liner to
adjust the panning position within 360 degrees.
5. Reinstall the lower dome. Replace the lower dome onto the camera base
and tighten the screws.
