amplifier.

Power
-
DC12V -/+
: Connect the two wires of the power
adapter to these ports. Be careful not to cross
the + and - wires. Booting will commence once
connected to a power supply.
Fasten the cable to the terminal block provided with
the product. Pull on the cable slightly to ensure it is
held securely in place. Insert the connected terminal
block into the power connector.
• When switching over from 12 VDC to PoE as the
power source, the system will be rebooted once the
power adapter is disconnected.
• Organize the power cable so that it will not cause
people to trip over or become damaged from chairs,
cabinets, desks, and other objects in the vicinity. Do
not run the power cable underneath carpet or a rug
or plug the cable into a power outlet shared by a
number of other devices.
When inserting a RS485 connector, hold down the
button and push the connector in through the
exposed hole. Release the button and then gently
pull on the wire to ensure a secure connection. To
disconnect the cable, press down on the button again
and pull the cable out.
• Check your local laws and regulations on making
video or audio recordings. The user will be held
liable for any violation of the law.
• The network connector is not designed to be
connected directly with cable or wire intended for
outdoor use.
