Before Installation
This section describes the procedures in preparing the external devices that you can connect to
the camera. The camera supports Digital Input and Output (DI/DO) and Audio Input and Output
devices using the bundled terminal blocks. The use of these devices, however, is optional.
Connecting a Power Adapter (Optional)
The camera can be powered by a Power over Ethernet (PoE) switch that is IEEE802.3af
compliant. In case of using a non-PoE switch or your PoE switch has limited power supply, you
can purchase a power adapter and directly connect the camera to a power outlet. The power
adapter must be connected to the supplied terminal block before use.
To do this, follow the procedures below:
1. Loosen the screws of the
12V
and
GND
pins of the power terminal block.
2. Take note that a standard power adapter cable has two (2) different wires:
White stripe: Connects to 12V Pin
Connects to GND Pin
