THESE ARE LOW VOLTAGE DC POWERED CAMERAS AND THEY ARE POLARITY SENSITIVE.
THE POLARITY IS AUTOMATICALLY CORRECT WHEN THE POWER SUPPLY MODULE IS PLUGGED DI-
RECTLY INTO THE CAMERA USING THE FACTORY INSTALLED CONNECTORS. IF IT IS NECESSARY TO
EXTEND THE DISTANCE BETWEEN THE POWER MODULE AND THE CAMERA, CUT AND SPLICE THE
WIRE ON THE POWER MODULE ONLY. IF IT IS NECESSARY TO REMOVE THE POWER CONNECTOR OR
CUT AND EXTEND THE POWER CABLE, IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO MAKE SURE THAT THE POLARITY
IS CORRECT BEFORE POWER IS SUPPLIED TO THE CAMERA. USE A METER TO CHECK THE POLAR-
ITY OF THE NEWLY SPLICED CABLE BEFORE CONNECTING IT TO THE CAMERA.
THE CENTER PIN MUST BE POSITIVE!
USE ONLY THE SUPPLIED POWER SUPPLY! POWER SUPPLY IS FOR INDOOR USE ONLY.
DO NOT REMOVE THE SERIAL NO. STICKER, AS THIS WILL VOID THE WARRANTY.
IF YOU ARE USING A PINHOLE STYLE CAMERA(s)
IN PLACE OF THE STANDARD S.T.R.™ STYLE CAMERA(s)
CONNECT THE CAMERA(s) AS SHOWN ON THIS DIAGRAM,
AND NOT AS SHOWN ON THE PROCEEDING PAGES.
THESE CAMERAS ARE TYPICALLY USED WITH THE
NATURAL ANODIZED ALUMINUM,
STAINLESS STEEL AND POLISHED BRASS PANELS.
THESE CAMERAS ARE POWERED BY THEIR OWN
PLUG-IN POWER SUPPLY, WHICH IS SUPPLIED
WITH EACH CAMERA.
