INFO
Description of system specications.
We recommend reading this part carefully
in order to understand the subsequent
stages.

3 Safety rules
The manufacturer declines all responsibility
for any damage caused by an improper use
of the appliances mentioned in this manual.
Furthermore, the manufacturer reserves
the right to modify its contents without any
prior notice. The documentation contained
in this manual has been collected with great
care, the manufacturer, however, cannot
take any liability for its use. The same thing
can be said for any person or company
involved in the creation and production of
this manual.
• The device must be installed only and exclusively
by qualied technical personnel.
• Before any technical work on the appliance,
disconnect the power supply.
• Do not use power supply cables that seem worn
or old.
• Never, under any circumstances, make any
changes or connections that are not shown in
this handbook: improper use of the appliance
can cause serious hazards, risking the safety of
personnel and of the installation.
• Use only original spare parts. Non-original spare
parts could cause re, electrical discharge or other
hazards.
• Before proceeding with installation check the
supplied material to make sure it corresponds
to the order specication by examining the
identication labels (4.2 Product markings, page 6).
Instructions manual - English - EN

• This device was designed to be permanently
installed on a building or on a suitable structure.
• When installing the device, comply with all the
national standards.
• The electrical system to which the unit is
connected must be equipped with a bipolar circuit
breaker. The minimum distance between the
contacts must be 3mm (0.1in). The circuit breaker
must be provided with protection against the fault
current towards the ground (dierential) and the
overcurrent (magnetothermal, maximum 20A).
• The device must be properly connected to the
earth circuit.
EN - English - Instructions manual
• Any device which could be installed inside the
product must comply with the current safety
standards.
• Before starting any operation, make sure the
power supply is disconnected.
• Installation category (also called Overvoltage
Category) species the level of mains voltage
surges that the equipment will be subjected to.
The category depends upon the location of the
equipment, and on any external surge protection
provided. Equipment in an industrial environment,
directly connected to major feeders/short branch
circuits, is subjected to Installation Category III. If
this is the case, a reduction to Installation Category
II is required. This can be achieved by use of an
isolating transformer with an earthed screen
between primary and secondary, or by tting
listed Surge Protective Devices (SPDs) from live
to neutral and from neutral to earth. Listed SPDs
shall be designed for repeated limiting of transient
voltage surges, suitable rated for operating voltage
and designated as follows: Type 2 (Permanently
connected SPDs intended for installation on the
load side of the service equipment overcurrent
device); Nominal Discharge Current (In) 20kA min.
For example: FERRAZ SHAWMUT, STT2240SPG-CN,
STT2BL240SPG-CN rated 120/240Vac, (In=20kA).
Maximum distance between installation and
reduction is 5m.
4 Identification
4.1 Product description and type
designation
The thermal camera provides vision also in complete
darkness, fog, rain, smoke or for long-range distances.
It is possible to use it for a wide range of high-security
day/night surveillance systems, such as: monitoring
and rescue in the event of a re, public safety,
along with airport, industrial and environmental
surveillance.
The stainless steel housing allows it to be installed in
environments with highly corrosive external agents,
such as marine, industrial or chemical environments.

J2 - Serial line
6.1.2.1 Connection of the 24Vac power
supply line
Before the installation, make sure the
specications of the power supply system
match the ones required by the device.
Make sure the power supply system and the
connection cables are properly sized.
The earth cable must be approximately
10mm (0.4in) longer than the other two
cables to prevent it from accidentally
coming o if it is stretched.
The power supply cable should also be
covered by the silicone sheath (01) supplied
for this purpose, and fastened with the
corresponding tie (02).
Cut the cables to the correct length and make the
connections. Connect the power supply to the
terminal.

6.1.3 Video cable connection
The installation is type CDS (Cable
Distribution System), do not connect it to
SELV circuits.
Connect the video cable (RG-59) tted with a BNC
connector to the board.
Fig. 6
6.1.3.1 Serial line connection
The installation is type TNV-1, do not
connect it to SELV circuits.
In order to reduce the risk of re, only use
cable sizes greater than or equal to 26AWG.
The product has a RS-422 serial communication line.

6.1.4 Serial line terminations
The board has two DIP switches used to congure the
serial line terminations (120 Ohm) (Fig. 4, page8).
Every peripheral that is situated at the end of a line
must be terminated using the appropriate dip-switch
in order to prevent signal reection and distortion.
Dip-switches 7 and 8 terminate serial lines RS485-1
and RS485-2 respectively.
DIP switches 1 and 2 terminate the RS422-RX and
RX422-TX serial lines, respectively.

8.2 Cleaning
8.2.1 Cleaning IR glass
Surface dirt should be rinsed away with water and
then the window cleaned with a neutral soap diluted
with water, or specic products for spectacle lens
cleaning. These should be applied with a soft cloth.
When cleaning the window with the IR lter,
take extra care not to scratch or damage the
outer surface treated with carbon coating.
Damage to this coating could also interfere
with the transparency of the surface to
infrared light. Do not use ethyl alcohol,
EN - English - Instructions manual
solvents, hydrogenated hydrocarbons,
strong acids or alkalis. These products will
irreparably damage the surface of the IR
glass.
