Cautions for Safety
The WAT-2300 is designed to be used safely. If not used safely, it may lead to a
physical accident caused by fire and electric shock. Therefore, please keep and
read the, “Cautions for safety” below for protection against accidents.
Do not disassemble and/or modify the WAT-2300.
Do not operate the WAT-2300 with wet hands.
Use a stabilized power adaptor designed for DC+12V
±
±
±
±
10%,
with a current capacity of more than 250mA for the WAT-2300.
The recommended voltage is DC+12V
±
10%. Also, we advise the
Use of an “inline fuse” power line to protect the camera and
peripheral equipment, where applicable.
Do not expose the WAT-2300 to wetness or high moisture
conditions.
The WAT-2300 is designed and approved for indoor use only. The
WAT-2300 is not water-resistant or waterproof. If the location of
the camera is outdoors or in an outdoor like environment, we
recommend that you use an outdoor camera housing.
Protect the WAT-2300 from condensation.
Keep the WAT-2300 dry at all times during storage and operation.
Should the camera not work properly, unplug the power
immediately. Then check the camera according to the “Problems
and Trouble Shooting” section.
Avoid the striking of hard objects or dropping the WAT-2300.
The WAT-2300 uses high quality electrical parts and precision
components and may inadvertently be damaged if not cared for
properly.
Do not connect any power supply directly to the video out
terminal of the unit.
Do not connect the WAT-2300 with any monitor using a
video/power single transmission terminal. The WAT-2300 utilizes
HD-TVI output and is not designed for use with this type of
equipment. We also advise you to read the operation manual of
the monitor you plan to use before any connections are made.
Do not install the WAT-2300 in a position subject to direct
sunlight.
Sunlight shinning directly onto the WAT-2300 lens can cause
damage to the sensor.
Select a stable place for installation of the WAT-2300.
Use an appropriately rated mount durable and strong for all
installation position.
Do not move the WAT-2300 with the cables connected.
Before moving the WAT-2300, always remove the video cable and
power cable from the rear of the camera first.
Avoid using the WAT-2300 near any strong electromagnetic
field.
In the event of exposure to electromagnetic waves (causing the
monitored image to become distorted) we recommend the camera
be shielded by an appropriate protective casing.
