What you should know
IMPORTANT
:
When connecting the camera cable, follow these guidelines:
• Do not tighten the connector by turning the camera cable.
• Do not turn the connector from behind the outer ring.
• Do not use any tools to tighten the connector.
CAUTION
:
A loose connector may cause water to leak into the SharpX camera. AutoVu SharpX
cameras are IP67 compliant only when the plastic protector cap is on, or when the cable is
connected to the camera according to the instructions.
IMPORTANT
:
Ensure that all electrical connections are insulated. This protects against accidental
electrical short-circuiting, both during and after the wiring installation process.
IMPORTANT
:
