- Attention! It is mandatory that the housing of the ExCam® Series has to be grounded via a PE connection!
- Attention! Please observe the national regulations regarding security, installation, and accident prevention (e.g. DIN EN 60079-14), as well as the safety guidelines described in this user manual and the EX installation manual!
The delivered ExCam® XF M3016 is equipped with a 5 m electrical connection cable. The user is NOT authorised to do electrical connection procedures inside the pressure-resistant enclosure. The ending of the camera’s cable connection is furnished with a plug.
Potential equalization
The potential equalization/grounding of the camera body is absolutely
necessary, in order to avoid static charges and thus formation of sparks. For
this purpose, a screw terminal is provided at the rear side, at the bottom
(right) (see Figure 5.1). The cross-section of the equipotential bonding
should comply with the National Ground Rules (at least 4 mm2).
Wiring table:
Potential| Colour (IEC 60757)| Cross- sec tion|
Comment
---|---|---|---
PA| GN/YE| 4 mm2 (rigid)| Terminal: slotted screw M4x0.7 (DIN 84) with washer
Ø9mm (DIN 125A),Keep 3Nm tightening torque!
Connection and Fusing
Via the 8 (+1) wire green patch cable the digital video stream is
transferred via IP/ TCP/ RTSP protocol levels and the camera module is
controlled and/or parametrized via the web interface or the video management
software. The power supply of the PoE camera is conducted via this cable. In
order to guarantee the power supply of the T08 ExCam XF M3016 (Powered Device/
PD), a Power-over-Ethernet component (Power Sourcing Equipment, PSE) has to be
available at the connecting side (e.g. a PoE Switch, a PoE Injector, or
Midspan) which meets the IEEE 802.3af or 802.3at type 1 class 1
specification1. The interface of the ExCam XF M3016 uses a 100 Mbit/s „Fast
Ethernet“ connection for the data transfer (100BASE-TX).
Network interface/plug assignment (RJ45)
Standardly, the camera’s cable end is furnished with an RJ45 Ethernet plug
with Power over Ethernet (PoE). This plug (Fig. 5-3) should be coupled with
the RJ45 PoE socket of the network device (PSE). Prior to connecting it to the
camera, the network device can already be supplied with power, hence you do
not need to observe any “power ON” priority.
Connection to a terminal box (alternatively)
If you have to connect the camera to a terminal box, please remove the plug
properly, according to good professional practice. In this case it is
imperative to ensure a correct routing of the individual wires according to
the EIA/TIA-568B (see Tab. 5.3). As a rule of thumb, the core wires of the
same colour coding (IEC60757) should be connected.
Especially in EMC-critical environments, it is important to make sure that the
cable shield is properly grounded at the terminal box side.
- Attention! Never open the Ex-e terminal box under voltage!
- Attention! Please observe the international installation regulations for connection chambers with increased safety (Ex-e).
- Attention! Please observe the separate Usual Manual for the Ex-e connection chamber attached in the annex.
Attention: The general specification for PoE allows different operation
modes for PDs: Mode A (end span): This is usually used by switches; the supply
voltage is executed as phantom power on the data lines. Both polarities are
possible.
Mode B (mid-span): This is usually used by PoE injectors; the power
supply and protocol transfer is executed on separate pins (plug/pin contact
4.5 is the positive pole and 7.8 is the negative pole). The T08 ExCam Series
supports both modes and the used power source (PSE) determines the mode. The
pin assignment for the cable SKDP04-T.flex is in accordance with the standard
EIA/TIA-568B for 100BaseTX with PoE (IEEE 802.3af/at):
Particularly in EMC critical environments, it is necessary to make sure that
the cable shield is grounded on side of the terminal block. The maximum cable
length between the camera and Exe terminal box is 95 m.
Video Tutorial:
Please view our video tutorial: “SAMCON 01 Wiring the cable SKDP03-T to
the junction box ExTB-3” https://go.samcon.eu/v01
It is allowed to separate and re-connect the ExCam XF M3016 from the network
when in operation and/or when interacting with the visualization software (hot
plug-in), or, if necessary, to reboot it for carrying out a re-parametrization
or set it back to default.
Attention: „Hot plug-in“ as well as the connection and separation of the
data and power cable from/of network devices and terminal blocks under power
is only allowed within the safe area (non-hazardous atmosphere)!
- Attention! Introduce the foiling up to about 15 mm to the terminals, in order to prevent alien crosstalk. Make sure that the foiling cannot cause any short circuit of the data pairs!
- Attention! Bring the twisted pair composite approximately 10mm close to the terminals, in order to ensure the interference immunity.
- Attention! Use only terminals approved by SAMCON.
- Attention! Finally, check your network installation by per Class-D Link Test.
Example: external connection and fusing via the terminal box
There are several options of routing the ExTB-3 terminal box in a safe area:
Example: direct routing from the ExTB-3 to the safe area
In the case of direct routing from ExTB-3 to the safe area, the power
supply and the voltage signal are led from the safe area to the terminal box.
Please observe the terminal box assignment, as described above.
- Attention! Cables and wires must comply with the requirements of the IEC 60079-0/1/7 & 14.
- Attention! The supply line must have a sufficient cross-section. The cable protection must comply with national and international regulations.
- Attention! Cable glands which are not fitted with a cable have to be closed with the red blind plug.
Example: Routing via ExConnection Rail (optional accessories)
In the case of routing the ExTB-3 into an ExConnection Rail, larger
installation distances can be covered.
Please note: In hazardous areas, the ExConnection Rail (optional
accessories) acts as a PoE+ switch, a media converter from copper to fiber-
optic cable, as well as a power supply for the cameras.
Appropriate cables & cable glands
An integral part of the device safety is the correct selection of the cables,
wires and cable glands.
- Attention! Cables and wires must comply with the requirements of the IEC 60079-0/1/7 & 14.
- Attention! The supply line must have a sufficient cross-section. The cable protection must comply with national and international regulations.

Opening the pressure-resistant housing
Opening the pressure–resistant camera housing is only allowed to carry out the
hardware reset of the M3016 camera module. Afterwards, the housing has to be
closed explosion-proof again! The steps below have to be followed very
carefully:
„WARNING – DO NOT OPEN IN HAZARDOUS AREA“
Attention: For opening the ExCam XF M3016’s pressure-resistant stainless steel housing T07 VA1.2.K1.BOR, it is mandatory to follow the step-by-step instructions as stated in the T08 Ex installation manual!
- Attention! Beware not to damage the surface of bore hole and shaft (fit) at the flameproof gap preventing the transmission of ignition.
- Attention! Please make sure not to damage housing sealings and to keep them clean.
The two control buttons are located on the Axis modules main board (q.v. Figure 6-2); the outer push button is used for carrying out the hardware reset.
In order to be able to press the control button, the black mounting adapter has to be disconnected from the stainless steel flange. To do so, please take off the M3*0.5 16 mm cylinder head screws (DIN 912) with the associated washers (DIN 127 A) (q.v. figure 6-3).
Attention: Via a „heavy duty“ RJ45 network plug, the hardware is
connected to the system cable. For low-temperature models, there are also two
further wires (BK) and an additional plug connection (WH) to the heating
module. It is not mandatory to unplug the RJ45 plug but it might facilitate
the handling. If the cable is unplugged, please make sure to re-loop it later
on.
Carefully tilt the mounting adapter so that through the opening, the right
push button can be pressed to carry out the hardware reset (q.v. Figure 6-2).
Please make sure not to damage any electrical installations, cable interfaces,
the lens, or mounting components. Also, please do not to exert mechanical
strain on the aforementioned components. Please be aware that the measures run
a risk of distorting the optical axis which leads to a reduction in the
picture quality!
When touching electrical components, potential equalization (ground-ing of the
body) has to be observed (ESD clothing, PE wristband etc.)! For carrying out
the hardware reset, please refer to the Axis user manual (page 15) which
describes the individual steps:
https://help.axis.com/api/download/um_m30_series_t10104241_de_2103.pdf
After the successful hardware reset, the mounting adapter has to be fixed
again with the three M3*0.5 original screws and the associated washers. A
tightening torque of 2.5 Nm is recommended! When closing the housing, the
cable routing has to be observed! In order to avoid collisions and mechanical
strain within the closed housing as well as to observe the neces-sary bending
radius, the cable has to be looped.
Closing of the pressure-resistant housing
Attention: For closing the pressure-tight stainless steel T07
VA1.2.K1.BOR housing of the ExCam XF M3016, the instructions of the T08 Ex
installation manual have to be followed step by step!

Assigning the IP address
The ExCam XF M3016 is intended for use in an Ethernet network and requires an
IP address to access and control it. In most of today’s networks, a DHCP
server is integrated which automatically assigns an IP address.
If there is no DHCP server available in the network, the IP default address of
ExCam XF M3016 is “192.168.0.90” (subnet masking 255.255.255.0). With the
“AXIS IP Utility“ tool it is possible to determine the IP address with
Windows; the software as well as additional useful tools can be downloaded for
free from the axis homepage. https://www.axis.com/support/tools/axis-ip-
utility
If it is not possible to assign the IP address, it might be necessary to
change the firewall settings!
The “AXIS IP Utility” tool automatically recognizes all ExCam devices and
visualises them in the device list. It can also be used to manually assign a
static IP address. For this purpose, the ExCam XF M3016 network camera should
be installed in the same physical network segment (physical subnet) as the
computer on which the AXIS IP Utility is running. The network signature of
ExCam XF M3016 is “AXIS M3016” (see Fig. 8-1). MAC address and serial number
for clear device identification are also detected and displayed.
