Powering A200
A200 can be powered by two methods.
PoE Power Injector
For PoE power, you must use BirdDog 80W Power PoE Injector
model BL-PP80. Connect this PoE injector to a network switch
and then run an Ethernet cable for data transmission and
power up to a distance up to 100 meters to the PTZ camera.
DC Connection
A200 can also be powered by providing 24VAC 2.5A to the
power input leads of the breakout cable. To ensure proper
functionality of the pan /tilt motor and LED illumination, full
24VAC 2.5A must be provided - less than 24VAC 2.5A will
cause camera crashing or instability.
Phoenix Connector
1.
The anode and the cathode are not distinguished for phoenix connectors of red and black cables.
2.
GND: yellow-green color. GND is used to ground the camera, so ensure that GND is connected to a reliable
grounding point.
Starting the Camera
After you have correctly mounted the camera, connect the power. Each time the camera is powered on, it will
perform a self-test to check the Pan/Tilt/Zoom (PTZ) function. After self-test, you can operate the camera.
NOTE
•
The self-test process starts after the camera is powered up. Please wait until the process is finished.
•
When the operating temperature is lower than zero degrees Celsius, the camera will be automatically
pre-heat (the pre-heat process takes around 30 minutes). The self-test process starts only after the
temperature rises above zero degrees Celsius.
