This symbol is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated dangerous voltage within the product s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electrical shock. CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electrical shock do not remove the cover or back of this unit. No user serviceable parts are inside. CAUTION: To prevent electric shocks and risk of fire hazards, do not use other than specified power source. 1. UNPACKING and HANDLING Each unit is shipped assembled and factory tested. Ensure that all accessories are removed from the container before discarding packing material 2. MECHANICAL INSPECTION Inspect the front and rear of the equipment for shipping damage. Make sure the equipment is clean, and no connectors are broken, damaged, or loose. If equipment appears to be damaged or defective please contact your distributor or SecurityTronix at 1-610-429-1511 for assistance. 3. SPECIAL ATTENTION a. The installer must comply with electrical safety standards. There must be sufficient space between the camera s power supply and video line and any high voltage equipment and/or cables. b. To help ensure the camera s life and proper operation do not point the camera towards the sun or strong light. c. Do not install the camera in an environment where the temperature is above 122 F. d. Do not install the camera near a magnetic field or a high-power motor. e. Do not mount the camera near a radiator or heater. 3
f. The installation site and material must fully support the weight of the product. g. Only use a dry cloth to clean the camera. If there is dirt that is difficult to remove wipe gently with a mild detergent. Never use strong or abrasive detergents. h. The included 24VAC at 3A power supply must be used. Using a DC or other incorrect power supply will damage the camera. i. Only qualified installers are allowed to install, test and disassemble the camera. j. The camera is a low voltage product. If installed outdoors proper safety and lightning grounding are required. k. Before installing be sure the grounding, wiring, input power, voltage, DIP switches, communication protocol and baud rate are correctly set prior to powering up and using. 4.

No picture after applying power (i) check all plugs and cables are securely connected to the proper connectors; (ii) ensure your power supply is providing the correct voltage and current. b. The picture has ripples (i) check to see if the power supply is experiencing AC ripple, if so a filter may be required; (ii) determine if the monitor is faulty; (iii) determine if other peripheral equipment is causing ripple and if so make the necessary adjustments. c. The picture background continuously changes color a fluorescent lamp s magnetic field may cause color roll, therefore, reduce the number of fluorescent lamps or increase the distance between the camera and the lamps. d. The picture appears smeared (i) the power supply voltage level may be unstable, therefore, try another power supply; (ii) ensure the cables are correctly connected and/or the cables are of the correct impedance. e. Other interference may require a SecurityTronix ground loop isolation filter. f. Power is on, but the controller does not work (i) check to make sure the DIP switches for address and communications baud rate are properly set, (ii) check to ensure the RS485 connections at the camera and the PTZ Controller have the same polarity, (iii) check the integrity and continuity of the unshielded twisted pair (UTP) control cable. g. Additional troubleshooting assistance can be found on-line at www.securitytronix.com in addition to support from SecurityTronix sales engineers at 1-610-429-1511.
