How to Connect Audio Devices
The camera comes with audio input / output jacks to connect a microphone or speaker to the
camera. The audio jacks are covered with a rubber protection.
If using an audio input device, such as a microphone with a built-in amplifier, connect the device
to the
Audio Input
jack (RED) of the camera. If using an audio output device, such as a speaker,
connect the device to the
Audio Output
jack (GREEN) jack of the camera.
If the camera is installed outdoors, be sure to wrap the audio connectors with Waterproof tape
(can be purchased in hardware stores).
DISCLAIMER:
ACTi will not be responsible for damaged cameras due to water leakage caused
by improper waterproofing of cables.
NOTE 1:
Make sure that the connected audio input device has a built-in amplifier. Connecting an
ordinary microphone will dwarf sounds and will result in inaudible recording.
NOTE 2:
If the audio connectors will not be used, leave the rubber caps on to avoid water and
dust from entering the connectors.
Be sure to protect the audio cable connections inside a junction box or wrap with waterproof tape
(can be purchased in hardware stores).
