4

. Cleaning - Unplug the unit from the outlet before cleaning. Do not use liquid cleaners or

5

aerosol cleaners. Use a damp cloth for cleaning.

. Attachments - Do not use attachments not recommended by the product manufacturer

6

s they may cause hazards.

a

7. Accessories - Do not place this unit on an unstable stand, tripod, bracket, or mount. The

unit may fall, causing serious injury to a person and serious damage to the unit. Use only
with a stand, tripod, bracket, or mount recommended by the manufacturer or sold with

he product. Any mounting of the unit should follow the manufacturer's instructions and

t

hould use a mounting accessory recommended by the manufacturer.

s
An appliance and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive
force, and uneven surfaces may cause the appliance and cart combination to overturn.

8. Ventilation - Openings in the enclosure, if any, are provided for ventilation, to ensure

reliable operation of the unit, and to protect it from overheating. These openings must
not be blocked or covered. This unit should not be placed in a built-in installation unless

roper ventilation is provided or the manufacturer's instructions have been adhered to.

p

9. Power Sources - This unit should be operated only from the type of power source indicat-

d on the marking label. If you are not sure of the type of power supply you plan to use,

e

onsult your dealer or local power company. For units intended to operate from battery

c
power or other sources, refer to the operating instructions. This equipment is to be isolat­ed from the mains supply by a limited power source as specified in EN60950:1992 Clause

.11.

0. Grounding or Polarization - This unit may be equipped with a polarized alternating-cur-

1

ent line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other). This plug will fit into the

r

ower outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug

p

ully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your

f

lectrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the

e

olarized plug.

p
Alternately, this unit may be equipped with a 3-wire grounding-type plug, a plug having a

hird (grounding) pin. This plug will only fit into a grounding-type power outlet. This is a

t
safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact your electrician

o replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding-type

t
plug.

11. Power Cord Protection - Power supply cords should be routed so that they are not like-

ly to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular
attention to cords and plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit
from the appliance.

12. Power Lines - An outdoor system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power

lines or other electric light or power circuits or where it can fall into such power lines or
circuits. When installing an outdoor system, extreme care should be taken to keep from
touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal. U.S.A. models
only - refer to the National Electrical Code Article 820 regarding installation of CATV sys­tems.

13. Overloading - Do not overload outlets and extension cords as this can result in a risk of

fire or electric shock.

14. Object and Liquid Entry - Never push objects of any kind into this unit through openings,

as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could result in a fire
or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the unit.

15. Servicing - Do not attempt to service this unit yourself as opening or removing covers

may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified
service personnel.

16. Damage Requiring Service - Unplug the unit from the outlet and refer servicing to quali-

fied service personnel under the following conditions:
a. When the power supply cord or plug is damaged.
b. If liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into the unit.
c. If the unit has been exposed to water and/or inclement weather (rain, snow, etc.).
d. If the unit does not operate normally by following the operating instructions. Adjust

only those controls that are covered by the operating instructions, as an improper
adjustment of other controls may result in damage and will often require extensive

work by a qualified technician to restore the unit to its normal operation.
e. If the unit has been dropped or the cabinet has been damaged.
f. When the unit exhibits a distinct change in performance--this indicates a need for

service.

17. Replacement Parts - When replacement parts are required, be sure the service techni­cian has used replacement parts specified by the manufacturer or have the same charac­teristics as the original part. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock,
or other hazards.

18. Safety Check - Upon completion of any service or repairs to this unit, ask the service
technician to perform safety checks to determine that the unit is in proper operating
condition.

19. Coax Grounding - If an outside cable system is connected to the unit, be sure the cable
system is grounded. U.S.A. models only--Section 810 of the National Electrical Code,
ANSI/NFPA No.70-1981, provides information with respect to proper grounding of the
mount and supporting structure, grounding of the coax to a discharge unit, size of
grounding conductors, location of discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes,
and requirements for the grounding electrode.

20. Lightning - For added protection of this unit during a lightning storm, or when it is left
unattended and unused for long periods of time, unplug it from the wall outlet and dis­connect the cable system. This will prevent damage to the unit due to lightning and
power line surges.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

CAUTION: TO REDUCE THE RISK OF ELECTRICAL
SHOCK, DO NOT OPEN COVERS. NO USER SERVICEABLE
PARTS INSIDE. REFER SERVICING TO QUALIFIED SERVICE
PERSONNEL.

his label may appear on the bottom of the unit due to space

T
limitations.

The lightning flash with an arrowhead symbol within an
equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the
presence of uninsulated "dangerous voltage" within the
product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude
to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.

The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is
intended to alert the user to presence of important
operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the
literature accompanying the appliance.

4 DESCRIPTION

he HS9384 Series of environmental housings are attractive

T
aluminum enclosures designed for outdoor CCTV camera
installations.

4.1 Enclosure Rating

4.1.1 NEMA-3R and IP54

The HS9384 Series housings include a "breather" hole in the
front end cap. The "breather" hole prevents the accumula­tion of moisture inside the housing when installed in areas of
high humidity. With the "breather" hole open, the HS9384
Series housings meet the enclosure rating requirements of
NEMA-3R and IP54.

4.1.2 NEMA-6P and IP68

For installations requiring an enclosure rating of NEMA-6P or
IP68, the breather hole must be plugged using the pull seal
provided in the hardware kit. Refer to Final Assembly under
INSTALLATION for proper installation.

5 INSTALLATION

This installation should be made by a qualified ser­vice person and conform to all local codes.
