IRIS8xx series DVR
ʼ
s can be run from +12 or +24VDC. Nominal load is around 500mA but the unit
!
will momentarily spike at around 1.5A during boot up so this should be considered when choosing
!
suitable isolation.
!
The power plug connects to the back of the unit and as well as the colour coded DC+ (RED) and DC
!
Ground (BLACK) wires there is a third wire (YELLOW) for connection to the ignition if required. For
!
standard operation, simply common the yellow ignition wire with the red DC+ wire.

Cameras
!
Depending on the model, cameras are connected to the DVR via 1 or more breakout cables that
!
connect to DSub15 connectors on the back of the caddy. Each connector is labelled to show the
!
camera inputs and the first camera connector (only camera connector on the IRIS804) also includes
!
the composite video output, IR Remote Extender jack and a screw terminal block providing DC
!
output. Please note, the maximum output current supported by all DVR
ʼ
s is 2A. Using the DC output
!
will naturally effect the overall current draw of the unit so please bare this in mind if you intend to use
!
the DC output to power cameras for example.
