Warnings and Cautions 

Please review the following warnings and cautions 
before you begin installation or service. 

Warnings 

WARNING! 

Always use proper lift and 

safety equipment for the location and 
type of installation. Use the safety 
features of the lift equipment. 

WARNING! 

When connecting wires, 

ensure electrical power is not connected 
to the camera dome. The dome will 
move when power is applied. Also, 
ensure electrical power is not connected 
to nearby fixtures you might touch during 
installation. 

WARNING!

 The camera dome runs on 

24Vac. DO NOT connect line voltage to 
the dome. 

North America power requirements:

 In 

North America, this device is intended to 
be supplied from a Class 2 power 
supply. For outdoor installations, use 
Class 3 wiring techniques, liquid-tight 
conduit, or liquid-tight pipe. 
This installation should be made by a 
qualified service person and should 
conform to all local codes. 

WARNING!

 DO NOT install this housing 

where combustible or explosive products 
are stored or used. 

 

WARNING!

 EU power requirements: 

This product runs on 24Vac. In the EU, it 
is intended to be powered from a Limited 
Power Source. A limited power source is 
a certified source of SELV, and if inher-
ently limited, with 8 amps maximum 
output current, and a maximum of 100VA 
available; or if not inherently limited, 
fused with a maximum value of 3.3 
Amps, meeting section 2.11 of IEC950, 
and a maximum of 250VA available. The 
power supply can be obtained through 
American Dynamics or through another 
source where the provider can furnish 
the verification. This is required to assure 
electrical safety in the product. 

Cautions 

 

Water leaks, even small ones, can 
increase humidity inside the outdoor 
housing. To help eliminate humidity, 
follow all instructions explicitly and 
also the following cautions: 

-  DO NOT use over seals such as 

RTV and silicone caulks.

 

-  Ensure fans spin when power is 

on. 

Also see “Preventing Condensation” 
on page 5. 

  To protect the bubble assembly, leave it in its 

box until you are ready to install it. 

  Do not run data/power cables adjacent to or in 

the same conduit as line voltage mains power. 

  Network cable/device requirements (additional 

requirements are listed on page 6)

  Remove both slot covers from the eyeball to 

prevent overheating 

  Keep cables within the housing away from the 

heater assembly 

  If required, set data cable termination inside the 

housing (see “Unterminating the Outdoor 
Housing” on page 8)

  If possible, mount the housing so the least 

needed view (such as a wall, building corner, or 
pole) is opposite the fan/heater assembly.
