IR Remote Controller ID Setting
Set the IR SELECT switch on the back panel of the camera to 1, 2 or 3, to match the button on the con-
troller that you wish to use.
Powering P200
P200 can be powered by two ways.
PoE+ (Power over Ethernet)
PoE+ is a convenient way to power P200 as it allows both data and power to be sent through the same
standard Ethernet cable. To take advantage of PoE+, the network switch must support PoE+ (802.3at)
to provide the 18watts that the P200 requires.
DC Connection
Located at the rear of the P200 is a 12VDC connection port. Use only
the DC power adaptor (JEITA type4) supplied with the unit.
WARNING
Do not attempt to manually move the camera head when the device is powered up. Doing so may
damage the camera.
Thermal Management
P200 has been engineered to be passively cooled and no fans are required. In order to achieve this the
entire enclosure of P200 is designed to dissipate heat. The main processor is capable of operating up to
100º C / 212º F.
Various factors can affect how much heat the camera will produce, and it is normal for it to feel warm
to the touch. In extreme circumstances (a hot day/direct hot sun) it is advised to power P200 via DC as
this produces less heat than PoE.
