NOTE:
Camera Hardware Preventative Maintenance:
1. Visual inspection of all major components including accessories, cabling and
connections where accessible for signs of deterioration or damage.
2. Check and clean cameras, lenses and housings inside and out as needed.
•
Please do not scratch, damage, or leave fingerprints on the dome/front cover and/or
lens because this may decrease image quality.
• For general cleaning of dirty areas, it is suggested to use compressed air to remove
dust and/or other debris in order not to damage the on-board components.
• In order to clean oil stains, it is recommended to use a spray-type decomposing cleaner
(absolutely avoid reciprocating wipes on the surface). After the oil has decomposed,
spray it with water, dry with air, and/or absorb water with a cotton cloth or a soft cloth
(dab, please avoid wiping).
• Do not use harsh detergents, gasoline, benzene or acetone, etc. to clean as they may
deform or cause damage to the product. Also, excessive cleaning could damage the
surface.
3. Check images for correct field of view (pan, tilt and zoom focus) and adjust as
necessary.
4. Check and replace the Micro SD memory card as needed.
• Stop edge recording before removing the Micro SD memory card.
• Make sure that the Micro SD memory card is right side up and do not insert it with
force, otherwise it may be damaged.
• When it is raining or the humidity is high, insertion or ejection of the Micro SD memory
card is not recommended.
5. Disassembly of the dome/front cover carries the risk of internal dew condensation, so
please remember to replace the desiccant bags on the inside of the cameras before
reassembly.
6. Check that the camera view has not been blocked by obstacles and that you can see
the property perimeter clearly.
7. Make sure the interiors of cameras and accessories, like mounting kits and/or
enclosures, are clean and dry.
8. Make sure cameras are securely attached to the wall/ceiling/mounting kits.
