Starting the Camera
After you have mounted the camera properly, connect the camera to 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 patiently.
When the operating temperature is lower than zero degrees Celsius, the camera will be automatically pre-heat (the
pre-heat process takes 30 minutes at most). The self-test starts only after the temperature rises above zero degrees
Celsius.
