Safety Symbol and Message Conventions

Safety symbols and messages are used in this manual to prevent bodily injury and property damage which could result from mishandling. Before doing anything else, read this section first so you are thoroughly aware of the potential safety hazards as well as understanding the safety symbols and messages.

• 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.

• Use the unit only with the voltage specified on the unit. Using a voltage other than that which is specified may result in fire or electric shock.

• Avoid installing or mounting the unit in unstable locations, such as on a rickety table or a slanted surface. Failure to do so may result in the unit falling down and causing personal injury.

• Install the unit only in a location that can structurally support the weight of the unit and the mounting bracket. Doing otherwise may result in the unit falling and causing personal injury.

• Do not install the unit outdoors since it is designed for indoor use. If installed outdoors, the aging of parts causes the unit to fall down, possibly resulting in personal injury. Also, when it is exposed to rain, an electric shock may result.

• Should any of the following irregularities be found during use, immediately switch off the power, disconnect the power supply cord from the AC outlet and contact your TOA dealer. Do not attempt to further use the unit because a fire or electric shock may result.

• If you detect smoke or a strange smell coming from the unit.

• If water or a foreign object enters the unit.

• If the unit falls or the unit case breaks.

• If the power supply cord is damaged (exposure of core or disconnection).

• If no image is displayed on the screen.

• Do not open nor modify the unit’s case to prevent a fire or electric shock because there are high voltage components inside the unit. Refer all inspection, adjustment and repair work to the dealer from where the unit was purchased.

• Do not insert or drop metal pieces or flammable materials into the unit’s ventilation slots as this may result in fire or electric shock.

• Have the unit periodically checked by the dealer from where it was purchased. Should the unit or its mounts corrode or structurally deteriorate, the unit could fall down, possibly resulting in personal injury.

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which could result in death or serious personal injury if ignored or mishandled.

WARNING

• Avoid installing the unit in humid or dusty locations, in locations exposed to the direct sunlight, near the heaters, or in locations generating sooty smoke or steam as doing otherwise may result in fire or electric shock.

• Leave the unit’s installation to the dealer from where the unit was purchased because the installation requires expert knowledge. Inadequate installation may cause the unit to fall, possibly resulting in personal injury.

• Do not hang from the unit, as the unit may fall, possibly resulting in personal injury.

• When the unit is cleaned or is not used for a long period of time, remove the power supply plug from the AC outlet in order to avoid electric shock or fire.

Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which could result in moderate or minor personal injury, and/or property damage if ignored or mishandled.

CAUTION

Do not expose the unit to rain or an environment where it may be splashed by water or other liquids, as doing otherwise may result in fire or electric shock.

WARNING

2. GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The C-CV24-2 Color Dome Camera is an indoor-use camera and is equipped with a high-resolution camera and lens. It is designed to operate on 24 V AC or 12 V DC, which are supplied by an external power supply unit. Since its 2X vari-focal, auto-iris lens is built inside the camera, its angle of view can be manually adjusted.

3. HANDLING PRECAUTIONS

• Do not point the camera toward the sun or other strong lighting or reflected light.

• Avoid jarring or striking the camera, as the camera may fail.

• Install the camera in locations where the temperature range does not exceed –10°C to +50°C, and no dew condensation is formed.

• To clean, wipe with a soft, dry cloth. Never use benzene, thinner or chemically-treated towel to avoid damage to the camera’s finish.

• To clean the lens, use a camera blower or lightly wipe with lens cleaning paper.

• Picture quality may suffer if camera cables are wired close to other electrical equipment, such as fluorescent lamps. In such cases, reroute the wiring.

• Monitor screen pictures may become distorted or roll if the camera is used in locations influenced by strong electrical or magnetic fields from television transmission antennas, motors or transformers. In such cases, install the cables inside sheet steel cable conduit.

• Do not install the camera in locations where solvents or chemicals are used, as exposure to such chemicals could damage the dome cover finish.

• Use the external power supply unit of the following rating when the camera is operated on 12 V DC.

12 V DC, over 1.0 A
