Unpacking Instructions
JAI recommends that you save the original packing cartons for the cameras and accessories in case you need to
return or exchange an item. We also recommend that you bench-test any equipment being sent to another

Camera Setup
2.2.1
Heat Dissipation
The TM-4200GE is a compact 2k by 2k camera. Since all the electronics have been packed in a compact
package, the outer case of the camera can become hot due to heat dissipation. For optimal performance, JAI
Inc. recommends using a cooling fan to set up a positive air flow around the camera and following the
precautions below.
•
Mount the camera on a large heat sink (camera bracket) made out of heat-conductive material like
aluminum.
•
Make sure the flow of heat from the camera case to the bracket is not blocked by a non-conductive
material like plastic.
•
Make sure the camera has enough open space around it to facilitate the free flow of air.
2.2.2
