CAUTION

1. CAUTIONS

3

This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:

1. This device may not cause harmful interference.

2. This device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation.

Note

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a
Class A digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are
designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the
equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates,
uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used
in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to
radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely
to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct
the interference at his own expense.

WARNING

This is a class A product. In a domestic environment this product may cause
radio interference in which case the user may be required to take adequate
measures.

Caution

Any changes or modifications in construction of this device which are not
expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the
user’s authority to operate the equipment.

1. A regulated DC12V or AC24V power supply with a minimum of 500mA / 10VA is
recommended for use with this product for the best picture and the most stable operation.
An unregulated power supply can cause damage to the product.
If an unregulated power supply is used, product warranty will be void.

2. It is recommended that cables and monitors with a 75ohm video impedance level are
used with this product.

If your monitor supports high impedance mode, then please adjust accordingly.

3. Do not disassemble the camera to gain access to the internal components.
Refer servicing to your dealer.

4. Pointing the camera directly towards the sun, or any similarly bright or reective light,

may cause smear and possible damage to the sensor.

5. Removing the Serial Number Label will void the warranty.

6. The camera’s power supply must be plugged into a properly grounded wall socket.

CAUTION

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT OPEN

CAUTION:

TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK, DO NOT
REMOVE COVER (OR BACK). NO USER SERVICEABLE
PARTS INSIDE. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED
SERVICE PERSONNEL

This symbol is intended to alert the user to the presence
of un-insulated “dangerous voltage” within the product’s

enclosure that may be of sufcient magnitude to constitute a

risk of electric shock.

This symbol is intended to alert the user to the presence of
important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions
in the literature accompanying the appliance.

2. PRECAUTIONS

1. Do not install the camera near electric or magnetic elds.

Install the camera away from TV/radio transmitters, magnets, electric motors,

transformers and audio speakers since the electromagnetic elds generated from these

devices may distort the video image or otherwise interfere with camera operation.

2. Never disassemble the camera beyond the recommendations in this manual nor
introduce materials other than those recommended herein. Improper disassembly or

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

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

In some circumstances, direct sunlight may cause permanent damage to the sensor and/
or internal circuits, as well as creating unbalanced illumination beyond the capability of
the camera to compensate.

4. Keep the power cord away from water and other liquids and never touch the
power cord with wet hands. Touching a wet power cord with your hands or touching

the power cord 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 result in equipment failure, electric shock or, in extreme cases,

re.

6. Cleaning

For cameras with interchangeable lenses, do not touch the surface of the sensor directly
with the 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. Please do not use complex solvents, corrosive or abrasive agents for cleaning of
any part of the camera.

7. Do not operate the camera beyond the specied temperature, humidity or power

source ratings. This camera is suitable for indoor operation only. Use the camera at
temperatures within -40°C~60°C (-40°F~140°F) and humidity between 20% and 80%.
This device is not rated as submersible. The input power source is 12VDC / 24VAC
regulated.

8. Mounting

Use care in selecting a solid mounting surface which will support the weight of the camera
plus any wind, snow, ice or other loading, and securely attach the camera to the mounting
surface using screws and anchors which will properly support the camera. If necessary
(e.g. when mounting to drop ceilings) use a safety wire to provide additional support for
the camera.

4. PRODUCT OVERVIEW

Take advantage of the new Resolution 960 Series technology with the 960H cameras

that deliver 750+ HTVL and more. To achieve the amazing resolution of this advanced

imaging technology, the KPC-VDS302 uses a 960H CCD sensor on these Resolution 960

cameras to produce over 750 horizontal TV lines of resolution. Combined with a sensor

native low light sensitivity of 0.001 lux, this camera truly delivers everything you want
in an outdoor analog camera: crystal clear images, Electronic Wide Dynamic Range to
maintain the clarity of those color images in the most challenging of bright or unbalanced
scene lighting conditions, plus excellent low light performance and wide temperature
range operation as low as -40°F up to 140°F with low current draw. The KPC-VDS302

offers exible positioning for wall or ceiling mounting in an IP68 waterproof, vandal

resistant housing; 2.8~11mm varifocal DC Iris lens; dual voltage (12VDC/24VAC) with
Anti Color Roll and many DSP functions (DNR to save DVR HDD space, digital WDR,

BLC, HLC, anti-color roll for stability under uorescent lighting). For an alternate surface
mounting conguration, add a wall mount arm (KA-WM100).
