Installation Requirements

Precautions

  • Make sure the working temperature is maintained at -30°C~60°C, and the relative humidity is ≤95%. Keep the camera from excessive pressure, vibration, moisture, dust, and intensive electromagnetic radiation.
  • Use a power adapter or a PoE device that meets the requirements. Otherwise, the device may be damaged.
  • Make sure the length of the power cable between the power adapter and the camera is not too long, otherwise the camera might work abnormally because of the lowered voltage. If necessary, lengthen the cable between the power adapter and the mains.
  • Do not overbend the cables during the installation, otherwise, poor cable contact may cause malfunction.
  • Do not hold the tail cable by hand for weight bearing. Otherwise, the cable connector of the camera could be loosened.
  • When connecting to an external interface, use an existing connection terminal, and ensure that the cable terminal (latch or clamp) is in good condition and properly fastened.
  • Ensure that the cable is not tense during mounting, with a proper margin reserved to avoid poor port contact or loosening caused by shock or shake.
  • Do not remove the protective film on the device until mounting is finished. Remove it before powering on the device.
  • Make sure the wall or ceiling is strong enough to support the weight of the camera.
  • Contact professionals for maintenance information. Do not attempt to dismantle the device by yourself. We shall not assume any responsibility for problems caused by unauthorized repair or maintenance.

Maintenance

  • If there is dust on the front glass surface, remove the dust gently using an oil-free brush or a dust blowing ball.
  • Clean the glass surface gently from the center outward using the lens cleaning cloth. If necessary, use the cloth dipped with detergent.
