Before Installation
This section describes the procedures in preparing the external devices that you can connect to
the camera. The camera supports DC12V power input, Digital Input and Output (DI/DO), Audio
Input and Output devices, as well as Serial Devices like a Pan-Tilt (PT) Scanner using the
bundled terminal blocks. The use of these devices, however, is optional.
Connecting a PowerAdapter (Optional)
In case of using a non-PoE switch or your PoE switch has limited power supply, you can
purchase a power adapter and directly connect the camera to a power outlet. The power adapter
must be connected to the supplied terminal block before use.
To do this, follow the procedures below:
1. Loosen the screws of the 12V and GND pins of the power terminal block.
2. Take note that a standard power adapter cable has two (2) different wires:
White stripe: Connects to 12V Pin
Connects to GND Pin
