prevent serious injury or death.
Warnings
• In the use of the product, you must be in strict compliance with the
electrical safety regulations of the nation and region. Please refer to
technical specifications for detailed information.
• Input voltage should meet both the SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage)
and the Limited Power Source with 12 VDC according to the
IEC60950-1 standard. Please refer to technical specifications for
detailed information.
• Do not connect several devices to one power adapter as adapter
overload may cause over-heating or a fire hazard.
• Make sure that the plug is firmly connected to the power socket.
When the product is mounted on wall or ceiling, the device shall be
firmly fixed.
• If smoke, odor, or noise rise from the device, turn off the power at
once and unplug the power cable, and then please contact the
service center.
• Proper configuration of all passwords and other security settings is
the responsibility of the installer and/or end-user.
QSG Network Dome Camera
prevent potential injury or material
Cautions
• If the camera fails to synchronize the local time with that of the
network, you need to set the camera time manually. Visit the camera
(via web browser or client software) and enter the system settings
interface for the time settings.
• Make sure the power supply voltage is correct before using the
camera.
• Do not drop the camera or subject it to physical shock.
• Do not touch sensor modules with fingers. If cleaning is necessary,
use a clean cloth with a bit of ethanol, and wipe it gently. If the
camera will not be used for an extended period, use the lens cap to
protect the sensor.
• Do not aim the camera at the sun or extra bright places. Blooming or
smearing may occur otherwise (which is not a malfunction) and
affect the endurance of the sensor at the same time.
• The sensor may be burned out by a laser beam, so if any laser
equipment is in use, make sure that the surface of the sensor will not
be exposed to the laser beam.
• Do not place the camera in extremely hot, cold (the operating
temperature shall be -30°C to +60°C), dusty, or damp locations, and
do not expose it to high electro-magnetic radiation.
• To avoid heat accumulation, good ventilation is required for the
operating environment.
• Keep the camera away from liquid while in use.
• While in delivery, the camera shall be packed in its original packing or
equivalent.
• Regular part replacement: a few parts (e.g., electrolytic capacitor) of
the equipment shall be replaced regularly according to their average
endurance time. The average time varies because of differences
between operating environments and usage history, so regular
checking is recommended for all users. Please contact your dealer for
more details.
• Improper use or replacement of the battery may result in explosion
hazard. Replace with the same or equivalent type only. Dispose of
QSG Network Dome Camera
10
used batteries according to the instructions provided by the battery
manufacturer.
• If the product does not work properly, please contact your dealer or
the nearest service center. Never attempt to disassemble the camera
yourself. (We shall not assume any responsibility for problems caused
by unauthorized repair or maintenance.)

2 Installation
Before you start:
• Make sure the device in the package is in good condition and all the
assembly parts are included.
• The standard power supply is 12 VDC or PoE (802.3 af), please make
sure your power supply matches your camera.
• Make sure all the related equipment is powered off during the
installation.
• Check the specification of the products for the installation
environment.
• Make sure that the wall is strong enough to withstand four times the
weight of the camera and the bracket.
For cameras that support IR, pay attention to the following precautions
to prevent IR reflection:
• Dust or grease on the dome cover will cause IR reflection. Do not
remove the dome cover film until the installation is finished. If there
is dust or grease on the dome cover, clean the dome cover with a
clean soft cloth and isopropyl alcohol.
• Make sure there is no reflective surface too close to the camera lens.
The IR light from the camera may reflect back into the lens causing
reflection.
• The foam ring around the lens must be seated flush against the inner
surface of the bubble to isolate the lens from the IR LEDS. Fasten the
dome cover to the camera body so that the foam ring and the dome
cover are attached seamlessly.
2.1 Memory Card Installation
For camera models that support a memory card as local storage, you
can follow the steps to mount and unmount the memory card.
