Package Includes
ENSURE ALL SYSTEM EQUIPMENT AND COMPONENT ITEMS ARE PRESENT BEFORE BEGINNING INSTALLATION
Option 1: Rear Housing Installation
USE THE ALIGNMENT GUIDES TO DRILL HOLES FOR SETTING DEVICE SCREWS.
DO NOT USE TOO LONG SCREWS WHEN INSTALLING THE FRONT/REAR MOUNTING BRACKET.
USING SCREWS THAT ARE TOO LONG MAY DAMAGE THE THERMAL CAMERA.
- A. Place the rear facing alignment guide on the mounting position and drill four Φ2.5 mounting holes according to the markers on the alignment guide.
- B. Mount the device with four M2 screws.
THE THERMAL DEVICE WILL ACCUMULATE HEAT DURING OPERATION. ICI RECOMMENDS MOUNTING THE THERMAL DEVICE TO METALLIC OBJECTS AT ITS REAR HOUSING WHICH CAN REDUCE DEVICE HEATING AS WELL AS DECREASE THE TEMPERATURE DRIFT OF THE DETECTOR.
- C. Align the 8-pin connector of the POE Ethernet cable to the 8-pin receptor on the device; then, plug in the cable.
- D. Rotate the securing nut to the right to lock cable in place. Rotate the securing nut to the left to unlock the cable.
ALIGN THE PINS BEFORE TRYING TO CONNECT THE POE ETHERNET CABLE. DO NOT FORCE
THE POE ETHERNET CABLE ONTO THE DEVICE. FORCING THE CABLE ONTO THE DEVICE MAY
RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE PINS.
ALTERNATIVELY, POWER CAN BE PROVIDED THROUGH THE 12-PIN CONNECTOR VIA A 12-PIN
CABLE (NOT PROVIDED).
-
E. Plug the Ethernet end of the POE Ethernet cable into the back of the PoE injector.
-
F. Plug the jack end of the power adapter into the front of the PoE injector.
-
G. Plug the power adapter into a 110/120V electrical outlet.
-
H. Plug one end of the Ethernet cable into the front of the PoE injector.
-
I. Plug the other end of the Ethernet cable into the back of the network router.
-
J. Power on device.
THE THERMAL IMAGER NEEDS SUFFICIENT WARM-UP TIME FOR THE MOST ACCURATE TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENTS AND BEST IMAGE QUALITY. THIS TIME CAN OFTEN VARY BY ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS. IT IS BEST TO WAIT A MINIMUM OF 10 MINUTES FOR THE DEVICE TO COMPLETELY WARM-UP.
- K. Connect to the device through an Internet browser
Option 2: Front Housing Installation
USE THE ALIGNMENT GUIDES TO DRILL HOLES FOR SETTING DEVICE SCREWS.
