and power over Ethernet (in case the M8 connector is not used for power supply). Both are
receptacles for relatively large external cable connectors.
When connecting the camera with external cable connectors (either M8 or M12), the corresponding
camera connector nut should be held with an appropriate wrench. In case the nut is not held by a
wrench, the respective connector could be turned together with cable, when force is applied. This
should be prevented as it could cause damage to the internal camera wiring. At the time of camera
delivery, the M8 connector will be covered with a protective plastic cap. This cap should stay on in
the case that the camera is used with a power over Ethernet (PoE) supply, and protect the unused
connector against impurities and moisture, keeping it ready for future use.
Recommendation: When attaching M8 and M12 cables to camera, connectors
should be fixed with a tool (wrench/key) so that the connectors do not rotate
under force.

Cleaning Procedures
Depending on the operating environment, the camera needs to be cleaned from time to time. For
cleaning the camera housing, it is recommended to use a soft camera cleaning brush or a soft
cleaning cloth.
Using an eyeglass cleaning cloth is recommended for cleaning the camera glass window. Although
the hardness of used glass is grade 6H, special attention is required when cleaning the window to
prevent long term decreasing of optical properties. Using inadequate cleaning materials can cause
micro scratches of the camera window.
Ethyl alcohol can be used for light wiping of the entire camera housing. Using strong solvents is not
recommended and can lead to aesthetic or functional damage of the camera.
