Precautions

Please read this manual first to ensure correct installation and operation. This manual should be
retained for future reference. The information in this manual was current when published. The
manufacturer reserves the right to revise and improve its products. All specifications are
therefore subject to change without notice.

1. Do not install the camera near electric or magnetic fields.

Install the camera away from TV / radio transmitters, magnets, electric motors, transformers
and audio speakers, because the electromagnetic fields generated by these devices may
distort the video image or otherwise interfere with camera functions.

2. Never disassemble the camera beyond the recommendations in this manual, nor apply
materials to it other than those recommended herein.

Improper disassembly or introduction of corrosive materials may result in equipment failure
or other damage.

3. Try to avoid pointing the camera toward the sun.

In some circumstances, direct sunlight may cause permanent damage to the sensor and / or
internal circuits. It may also create unbalanced illumination that may be beyond the
camera’s ability to compensate.

4. Keep the power cable away from water and other liquids. Never touch the power cable
with wet hands.

Touching a wet power cable with your hands or touching the power cable with wet hands
may result in electric shock.

5. Never install the camera in areas exposed to oil, gas or solvents.

Oil, gas or solvents may cause equipment failure, electric shock or, in extreme cases, fire.

6. Cleaning

For cameras with interchangeable lenses, do not touch the surface of the sensor directly
with your hands. Use lens tissue or a cotton tipped applicator and ethanol to clean the
sensor and the camera lens. Use a damp soft cloth to remove any dirt from the camera body.
Do not use complex solvents, or corrosive or abrasive agents to clean any part of the camera.

7. Do not operate the camera beyond the specified temperature, humidity and power source
levels. This camera is suitable for indoor operation only.

Use the camera at temperatures within -10°C ~ 50°C (14°F ~ 122°F ) and humidity between
20 ~ 80%; this device is not rated as submersible. The input power source should be 12VDC
or 24VAC. The use of a properly fused or “Class 2 Limited Power Source” power supply is

highly recommended.

8. Mounting

Select a solid mounting surface that will support the weight of the camera and any
additional loading from wind, snow, ice or other factors. Securely attach the camera to the
mounting surface using screws and anchors that will properly support the camera. If
necessary, (e.g. when mounting the camera to a drop ceiling, or unsupported ceiling) use a
safety wire to provide additional support for the camera.

disk storage utilization. Full suite of OSD menu options controlled from the built-in function

buttons. Digital Wide Dynamic Range expansion to deliver properly exposed images despite bright
