To install the camera, Teledyne FLIR recommends connecting the camera on a
bench or in a lab and configuring it for networking before mounting and aiming it.
However, circumstances can dictate adjusting the sequence of the steps. For
example, you can mount the camera before configuring it for networking, or
connect the camera before mounting it.
Warning
The camera itself does not have a power on/off switch. Do
not supply power to the camera until you have completely
finished connecting it.
