SECTION 2
Installation
2.1 General Guidelines
The camera can be mounted on a flat surface (surface mounted, usually on a ceiling). The camera drop cable can be routed through
a hole in the ceiling, or through a cable channel on the side of the camera base.
Following are some general guidelines for installing the camera.
•
Camera Lens
: Handle the camera dome carefully to prevent scratching or soiling the dome and lens. If the dome or lens
becomes soiled, clean it only with approved products. See the
Cleaning
section later in this manual.
•
Monitor impedance
: Set the monitor impedance switch to 75Ω.
•
Power supply
: To avoid fire or shock hazard, use only a UL listed power supply.
•
Camera drop cable
: The camera drop cable includes two connectors:
—
Power connector
(red sleeve) – Use 24 Vac power source (AC24V 1A adapter) or 12 Vdc power source (DC12V 1A
adapter). When connecting 12 Vdc power to the camera power drop. When connecting 12 Vdc power to the drop cable
connector, observe the polarity - the center tap must be positive compared to the outer shield.
—
Video coax connector
(BNC, yellow sleeve) – for transmission of the video signal across coax (75 Ω) cable.
