7 Installation
The following instructions will help you set up your camera quickly and easily. JAI PULNiX suggests
that you read through these instructions first, before you unpack and set up your camera system.
7.1 Getting Started
7.1.1 Unpacking Instructions
JAI PULNiX 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 location for field
installation to assure that everything is fully operational as a system.
7.1.2 Components
When you receive your TM-6740GE camera from JAI PULNiX, the contents of the shipping box
should include the camera and a document download card. If either of these items are missing, please
contact your JAI PULNiX representative immediately. The document download card includes
instructions and web locations for downloading the datasheet, manual, and camera-control software. If
you do not have Internet access, please contact JAI PULNiX to receive this material on a CD-ROM.

Please check with your JAI PULNiX representative before you install your camera to determine what
you might need.

7.2 Camera Setup
7.2.1 Heat Dissipation
The TM-6740GE is a compact 640 by 480 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 PULNiX 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.
