AC adapter 

When unplugging the AC adapter, always pull by the plug, not the cord. 

Doing so can lead to fire or electric shock. 

 

 

 

Remove the AC adapter from the outlet when not using the camera for long 

periods of time. Doing so can damage the cable and lead to fire or electric 

shock. 

 

 

 

Connecting and disconnecting cables 

Always turn off the power  supply of the peripheral device before 

connecting and disconnecting cables. 

 

 

 

Fixed the camera 

When fitting the camera to a tripod or other fixture, use the screw hole in 

the camera bottom. Be careful that the fitting screw does not enter more 

than 8 mm. Screwing it in excessively can damage the camera.

 

 

 

 

Lenses

 

Be careful not to screw the lens more than 5 mm onto the C-mount of the 

camera. Screwing it in excessively can damage the camera.

 

 

 

 

Shipping precautions 

When transporting the camera by truck, ship, airplane, etc., wrap it 

securely in packaging material or something similar. 

 

 

 

Strong impact 

Do not subject the camera to strong shocks by dropping it, for example. 

Doing so can damage the camera. 

 

 

 

Operating environment 

This camera is designed and tested for use in an industrial environment. If 

this  camera  is used in residential areas, EMI (electro-magnetic 

interference) may occur. This  camera  must not be used in residential 

areas.

 

 

 

Disposal 

When disposing of the camera, take appropriate measures in compliance 

with applicable regulations regarding waste disposal and correctly 

dispose of it yourself, or entrust disposal to a licensed industrial waste 

disposal company. In any case, be sure to comply with the regulations in 

your country, state, region or province to ensure the camera is disposed of 

legally and correctly.
