Important Safeguards and Warnings

Electrical Safety

  • All installation and operation shall conform to your local electrical safety codes.
  • The power source shall conform to the Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV), and supply power with a rated voltage that meets limited power source requirements according to IEC60950-1. Note that the power supply requirement is subject to the device label.
  • Make sure that the power supply is correct before operating the device.
  • A readily accessible disconnecting device shall be incorporated into the building installation wiring.
  • Prevent the power cable from being trampled or pressed, especially the plug, power socket, and junction extruded from the device.

Environment

  • Do not aim the device at strong light to focus, such as lamp light and sunlight; otherwise, it might cause over-brightness or light marks, which are not the device malfunction, and affect the longevity of Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS).
  • Do not place the device in a damp, dusty, extremely hot, or cold environment, and avoid places with strong electromagnetic radiation or unstable lighting.
  • Keep the device away from any liquid to avoid damage to the internal components.
  • Keep the indoor device away from rain or dampness to avoid fire or lightning.
  • Install the device in a well-ventilated place and do not block the ventilation of the device.
  • Transport, use, and store the device under the allowed humidity and temperature.
  • Heavy stress, violent vibration, or water splash are not allowed during transportation, storage, and installation.
  • Use the factory default package or material with equal quality to pack the device when transporting.
  • Install the device in a location where only professional staff with relevant knowledge of safety guards and warnings can access it.

Operation and Daily Maintenance

  • Do not touch the heat dissipation component of the device to avoid scald.
  • Carefully follow the instructions in the manual when performing any disassembly operation on the device; otherwise, it might cause water leakage or poor image quality due to unprofessional disassembly. Please contact after-sale service for desiccant replacement if there is condensed fog on the lens after unpacking or when the desiccant turns green. (Not all models are included with the desiccant).
  • It is recommended to use the device together with a lightning arrester to improve the lightning protection effect.
  • It is recommended to ground the device to enhance reliability.
  • Do not touch the image sensor directly. Use a dry cloth dampened with alcohol and gently wipe away any dust on the lens.
  • You can clean the device body with a soft dry cloth, and for stubborn stains, use the cloth with mild detergent. To avoid possible damage to the device body coating which could cause a performance decrease, do not use volatile solvents such as alcohol, benzene, diluent, and so on to clean the device body, nor can strong, abrasive detergent be used.

CAUTION

  • Strengthen the protection of network, device data, and personal information by adopting measures that include but are not limited to using strong passwords, changing passwords regularly, updating the firmware to the latest version, and isolating computer networks. For some devices with old firmware versions, the ONVIF password will not be modified automatically along with the modification of the system password, and you need to upgrade the firmware or manually update the ONVIF password.
  • Use standard components or accessories provided by the manufacturer and make sure that the device is installed and maintained by professional engineers.
  • The surface of the image sensor should not be exposed to laser beam radiation.
  • Do not provide two or more power supply sources for the device unless otherwise specified. A failure to follow this instruction might cause damage to the device.

Package Contents

  • Unpack the box and check if all the components are included before installation.
  • Contact your local retailer if anything is broken in your package.
