The functionality of each wire fixing hole in the main terminal block is as described in Table 3.
Hole Name:
Gnd (outdoor dome cameras only)
Function:
Ground for alternate camera power.
Note:
The ground for alternate camera power, the I/O ground, and the RS-485 ground are all isolated from each
other.
Hole Name:
VDC (outdoor dome cameras only)
Function:
Use this fixing hole to supply alternate power to the camera (i.e., use this connection to supply power
to the camera if you are not using PoE).
Nominal operating range: +12 to +24 VDC
Max power consumption: 10 W @ 12 VDC when the heater is enabled
5.5 W @ 12 VDC when heater is disabled
Hole Name:
Heater Off (outdoor dome cameras only)
Function:
Place a jumper between the Heater Off fixing hole and the Gnd fixing hole to disable the camera’s
heater.
If you are using alternate power, the camera’s power consumption will be 10 W when the heater is enabled and
5.5 W (@ 12 VDC) when the heater is disabled.
If you are using PoE, the camera will be Class 0 when the heater is enabled and will be Class 2 when the heater
is disabled. This can be useful when you are using the camera with a PoE switch that is only capable of
supplying low amounts of power.
Hole Name:
I/O Gnd
Function
: Ground for the camera’s I/O ports
Note:
The ground for alternate camera power, the I/O ground, and the RS-485 ground are all isolated from each
