Camera Installation
1.3
Installation Overview
The FB-Series camera is an infrared thermal imaging camera for indoor or outdoor security
applications. The camera mounting must support up to 5.4 lbs (2.5 kg). Refer to
for wall and pole mounts that can be purchased from FLIR Systems, Inc.
1.3.1
Camera Connection Options
The FB-Series camera can be installed with an analog or digital (IP) video output (or both). Analog
video requires a connection to a video monitor or an analog video matrix switch. The camera can be
powered using Power over Ethernet (PoE) or with a conventional 24 Vac or 12 Vdc power supply.
For a PoE connection, an accessory PoE power supply (also called a PoE injector) is required if the
camera is not connected to a PoE switch. The maximum Ethernet cable run is 100 meters including
the PoE power supply. In installations using PoE power and IP video, only a single Ethernet cable to
the camera is required. The FB-Series camera is a Powered Device compliant with the IEEE
802.3af-2003 standard.
In installations using analog video and conventional power, an RG59U coaxial cable and a power
cable are installed. It is recommended an Ethernet cable should also be installed for camera
configuration and troubleshooting. The FB-Series camera does not support serial communications.
General Purpose Input/Output (GPIO)
The camera can receive two input signals and can provide a single output signal. By default the
signals are configured for normally open alarm switch circuits. Refer to
.
Input Signal
—When an external alarm device closes a switch to complete the circuit for the
camera, an input alarm is generated by the GPIO for the Alarm Manager.
Output Signal
—When an output alarm is generated by the Alarm Manager for the GPIO, the
camera closes its internal switch to complete the circuit for the receiving device.
