Strictly conform to local electrical safety standards and use power adapters that are
marked with the LPS standard when installing and using this device. Otherwise,
this device may be damaged.
Use accessories delivered with this device. The voltage must meet input voltage
requirements for this device.
If this device is installed in places with unsteady voltage, ground this device to
discharge high energy such as electrical surges in order to prevent the power supply
from burning out.
When this device is in use, ensure that no water or any liquid flows into the device.
If water or liquid unexpectedly flows into the device, immediately power off the
device and disconnect all cables (such as power cables and network cables) from
this device.
Do not place the thermal imaging camera and unpackaged products at a radiation
source with a high intensity regardless of whether the device is in the normal
power-on state, for example, the sun, laser, and electric arc welder, and place the
thermal imaging camera and unpackaged products against objects with a high heat
source, for example, the sun. Otherwise, the accuracy of the thermal imaging
camera will be affected. In addition, the detector in the thermal imaging camera
may be permanently damaged.
If this device is installed in places where thunder and lightning frequently occur,
ground the device nearby to discharge high energy such as thunder strikes in order
to prevent device damage.
Unless otherwise specified in the user manual, do not use the thermal imaging
camera in an environment with the temperature lower than -10C (+14F) or higher
than 50C (+122F). Otherwise, the images displayed by the thermal imaging
camera are abnormal and the device may be damaged if working beyond the
temperature range for a long period.
During the outdoor installation, prevent the morning or evening sunlight incidence
to the lens of the thermal imaging camera. The sun shade must be installed and
adjusted according to the angle of the sunlight illumination.
Avoid heavy loads, intensive shakes, and soaking to prevent damages during
transportation and storage. The warranty does not cover any device damage that is
caused during secondary packaging and transportation after the original packaging
is taken apart.
This device is a static sensitivity device. Improper static may damage the thermal
imaging camera. ESD protection measures and reliable grounding must be well
prepared for device installation and uninstallation.
Protect this device from fall-down and intensive strikes, keep the device away from
magnetic field interference, and do not install the device in places with shaking
surfaces or under shocks.

Use a soft and dry cloth to clean the device body. In case that the dirt is hard to
remove, use a dry cloth dipped in a small amount of mild detergent and gently wipe
the device, and then dry it again. Pay special attention to the front window of the
thermal imaging camera because this is precision optics. If the front window has
water spots, use a clean and soft cloth moistened with water and wipe it. If the front
window needs further cleaning, use a soft cloth dampened with isopropyl alcohol
or detergent. Improper cleaning can cause damage to the device.
The lens window of the thermal imaging camera is designed to be applicable to an
outdoor environment. The window is coated with durable coating material, but may
require frequent cleaning. When you found lens image degradation or excessive
accumulation of pollutants, you should clear up the window in a timely manner.
Exercise caution when you use this device in severe sandstorm (such as deserts) or
corrosive environments (such as offshore). Improper use may cause surface coating
off.
Do not jam the ventilation opening. Follow the installation instructions provided in
this document when installing the device.
Keep the device away from heat sources such as radiators, electric heaters, or other
heat equipment.
Keep the device away from moist, dusty, extremely hot or cold places, or places
with strong electric radiation.
If the device is installed outdoors, take insect- and moisture-proof measures to
avoid circuit board corrosion that can affect monitoring.
Remove the power plug if the device is idle for a long time.
Before unpacking, check whether the fragile sticker is damaged. If the fragile
sticker is damaged, contact customer services or sales personnel. The manufacturer
shall not be held responsible for any artificial damage of the fragile sticker.
Special Announcement
All complete products sold by the manufacturer are delivered along with nameplates,
operation instructions, and accessories after strict inspection. The manufacturer shall
not be held responsible for counterfeit products.
This manual may contain misprints, technology information that is not accurate enough,
or product function and operation description that is slightly inconsistent with the
actual product. The manufacturer will update this manual according to product function
enhancement or changes and regularly update the software and hardware described in
this manual. Update information will be added to new versions of this manual without
prior notice.

1 Product Overview
1.1 Thermal Imaging Principles and Advantages
For any object, as long as its temperature is above the absolute zero (-273.15°C),
although the object does not give out light, it can radiate infrared. The infrared is also
known as thermal radiation. Atemperature change occurs when the infrared radiated by
objects at different temperatures is absorbed by the infrared thermal detector, and
thereby generating an electrical effect. An electrical signal is amplified and processed
to obtain a thermal image corresponding to the distribution of heat on the surface of the
object, that is, infrared thermal imaging.
Applicable to any light environment
Traditional cameras rely on the natural or ambient light for imaging. However, the
infrared thermal imaging camera can clearly image the object with the infrared heat
radiation of the object without relying on any light. The infrared thermal camera is
applicable to any light environment and is free from glare impact. It can clearly
detect and find the target as well as identify the camouflaged and hidden target in
both day and night. Therefore, it achieves real 24-hour surveillance.
Monitoring the temperature field of the target heat distribution
The infrared thermal camera can display the temperature field of the object and
change the surface temperature distribution of the object that cannot be directly
seen by human eyes to the thermal image representing the surface temperature
distribution of the object. By monitoring the temperature field, you can
immediately identify the temperature abnormality, thereby preventing potential
risks caused by the temperature, such as fire.
Providing the cloud penetration capability
Atmosphere, dust, and clouds can absorb visible light and near infrared, but are
clear to the thermal infrared for 3 to 5 microns (medium wave infrared region) and
8 to 14 micron (long wave infrared). Therefore, it is difficult for the conventional
cameras to capture clear images under dense clouds, while the thermal imaging
camera is able to effectively penetrate the atmosphere and clouds to capture clear
images.

The thermal imaging integrated camera can be installed on the ceiling or the wall. You
can select the appropriate installation according to your requirements. If the camera
needs to be installed on the cement wall, you need to install the expansion screws (the
mounting holes of the screws must be consistent with that of the support), and then
install the support.
NOTE
The wall where the support is mounted must be able to withstand at least three times of the
total weight of the support and the camera.
3.3 Installation Procedure
Step 1 Remove the installation location labels delivered with the camera. Stick the installation
location labels on the ceiling or the wall, as shown in Figure 3-1.
NOTE
If the installation uses the back leading mode, pouch a leading-out hole on the ceiling or
the wall, as shown in the area highlighted in red in Figure 3-1. (This manual uses the
back leading mode as an example.)
If the installation uses the side leading mode, lead the multi-connector combination cable
from the side notch on the bottom of the camera.
