Precautions

Observe these precautions when installing Checker to reduce the 
risk of injury or equipment damage:

Do not attempt to adjust Checker’s focus when moving parts 
and/or equipment are present.

Use a listed power supply with an output rated 24VDC, at 
least150mA, and marked Class 2, Limited Power Source 
(LPS). Any other voltage creates a risk of fire or shock and can 
damage Checker.

Do not install Checker in locations that expose it to 
environmental hazards such as excessive heat, humidity, 
impact, vibration, corrosive substances, flammable 
substances, or static electricity.

To reduce the risk of damage or malfunction, route all cables 
and wires away from high-voltage power sources.

Do not attempt to modify Checker. Modifications will void the 
warranty.
