Operation guidelines
To ensure your unit operates optimally, follow these guidelines:
•
Do not aim the camera at strong light sources, such as a spot light, since it causes blooming (light
bleeding) or will smear (vertical lines).
•
When you use a broadband router, use one with port forwarding (NAT, IP masquerade).
•
Do not operate in dusty areas, you may shorten
the life of sensitive internal parts.
•
Keep the camera dry and do not use it near water.
•
Handle the camera with care. Do not strike or shake the camera.
•
When the system detects an error, for any reason, the camera restarts. The camera will be inoperable
for approximately 30 seconds after you turn the camera on.
•
Unplug the camera during electrical storms or when the camera goes unused for long periods of time.
•
Use the camera only with an approved cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table. If you use a cart, use
caution. Move the cart so you do not tip it over.
•
Turn the camera off before you clean the camera. Always use a dry cloth. For difficult stains, use a
mild detergent, wipe gently, and finish with a dry cloth. Avoid strong detergents, since you can
discolor the camera. If you use a chemical cloth, follow the designated warnings.
•
Clean the lens with a lens cleaning paper with an alcohol solvent. Do not use a thinner or glass cleaner.
