Permanent

 

Mounting:

 

For

 

permanent

 

mounting,

 

it

 

is

 

recommended

 

that

 

you

 

remove

 

the

 

magnet

 

and

 

attach

 

to

 

any

 

solid

 

surface

 

with

 

two

 

(2)

 

screws.

   

 

After

 

camera

 

is

 

securely

 

mounted,

 

plug

 

power/video

 

input

 

into

 

AgCam®

 

extension

 

power/video

 

cable.

 

Make

 

sure

 

they

 

are

 

securely

 

attached

Suggestions

 

for

 

Mounting

 

Camera:

 

When

 

determining

 

the

 

location

 

for

 

the

 

camera

 

it

 

is

 

always

 

best

 

to

 

use

 

a

 

solid

 

surface

 

to

 

minimize

 

vibration.

 

Ladders

 

are

 

not

 

good

 

mounting

 

choices

 

due

 

to

 

lack

 

of

 

stability.

 

 

If

 

you

 

will

 

be

 

using

 

your

 

AgCam®

 

for

 

assisting

 

in

 

visibility

 

for

 

towing,

 

you

 

will

 

want

 

to

 

position

 

the

 

camera

 

so

 

you

 

can

 

see

 

the

 

desired

 

area

 

and

 

a

 

portion

 

of

 

the

 

vehicle/trailer

 

in

 

tow;

 

this

 

will

 

give

 

you

 

some

 

reference

 

to

 

distance.

 

You

 

will

 

also

 

want

 

to

 

use

 

the

 

mirrored

 

setting

 

in

 

the

 

monitor

 

menu

 

or

 

remove

 

the

 

magnet

 

in

 

the

 

MIR

 

function

 

plug

 

on

 

the

 

camera

 

so

 

as

 

to

 

accurately

 

represent

 

left

 

and

 

right.

  

This

 

will

 

give

 

you

 

the

 

effect

 

of

 

looking

 

in

 

a

 

rear

 

view

 

mirror.

Warnings

 

 

NEVER

 

RELY

 

ON

 

YOUR

 

AGCAM®AS

 

A

 

SAFETY

 

FEATURE.

 

It

 

is

 

up

 

to

 

your

 

discretion

 

to

 

keep

 

your

 

road

 

travel

 

and

 

other

 

operations

 

safe.

 

Your

 

AgCam®

 

will

 

provide

 

you

 

with

 

information

 

only

 

based

 

on

 

what

 

it

 

sees.

 

Operation

 

of

 

machinery

 

safety

 

guidelines

 

still

 

apply.

 

 

The

 

AgCam®

 

is

 

equipped

 

with

 

an

 

array

 

of

 

infrared

 

light

 

emitters

 

which

 

are

 

invisible

 

to

 

the

 

human

 

eye.

 

This

 

feature

 

will

 

aid

 

in

 

low

 

light

 

conditions

 

but

 

has

 

limitations.

 

The

 

effective

 

range

 

of

 

the

 

night

 

vision

 

feature

 

is

 

1

 

to

 

45+

 

feet

 

and

 

will

 

produce

 

a

 

monochrome

 

image

 

only.

 

Do

 

not

 

attempt

 

to

 

drive

 

machinery

 

using

 

this

 

feature.

Cable

 

Installation

 

&

 

Mounting

 

There

 

are

 

two

 

(2)

 

lengths

 

of

 

cable

 

with

 

your

 

camera

 

system:

 

One

 

(1)

 

20’

 

and

 

one

 

(1)

 

60’.

 

If

 

you

 

would

 

like

 

to

 

purchase

 

different

 

or

 

additional

 

cable

 

lengths,

 

please

 

contact

 

your

 

dealer

 

where

 

you

 

purchased

 

your

 

AgCam®.

 

  

Cable

 

Warnings

 

 

Cable

 

routing

 

is

 

important.

 

Where

 

you

 

choose

 

to

 

run

 

the

 

cables

 

should

 

not

 

interfere

 

with

 

the

 

normal

 

operation

 

of

 

the

 

machine

 

or

 

any

 

safety

 

equipment.

 

 

ALWAYS

 

be

 

aware

 

of

 

any

 

“pinch

 

points”

 

or

 

other

 

potential

 

hazards

 

to

 

the

 

cable.

 

 

Secure

 

all

 

cables

 

to

 

vehicle/equipment

 

using

 

cable

 

clips,

 

zip

 

ties

 

or

 

other

 

style

 

fastener.

 

 

If

 

you

 

intend

 

to

 

use

 

your

 

AgCam®

 

for

 

short

 

length

 

PTO

 

operated

 

implement,

 

avoid

 

excess

 

cable

 

lengths

 

if

 

possible.

  

When

 

you

 

decide

 

on

 

a

 

location

 

you

 

should

 

fix

 

the

 

camera

 

to

 

a

 

permanent

 

bracket

 

using

 

¼

 

inch

 

bolts,

 

and

 

attach

 

any

 

loose

 

cable

 

securely

 

so

 

there

 

is

 

no

 

chance

 

of

 

entanglement

 

in

 

the

 

PTO

 

or

 

other

 

moving

 

parts.

  

 

If

 

you

 

use

 

your

 

AgCam®

 

to

 

monitor

 

a

 

combine

 

hopper

 

or

 

other

 

combine

 

operations,

 

take

 

care

 

to

 

remember

 

that

 

combines

 

have

 

many

 

moving

 

parts.

 

Use

 

extreme

 

care

 

when

 

routing

 

cables,

 

and

 

it

 

is

 

strongly

 

recommended

 

that

 

you

 

use

 

bolts

 

to

 

secure

 

the

 

camera.

 

While

 

it

 

would

 

be

 

sufficient

 

to

 

use

 

the

 

magnetic

 

base

 

for

 

monitoring

 

purposes

 

during

 

road

 

travel,

 

it

 

is

 

advised

 

to

 

secure

 

the

 

camera

 

with

 

bolts

 

during

 

operation

 

of

 

the

 

combine.
