The camera requires a single voltage input +12 VDC to +24 VDC. The camera meets all performance
specifications using standard switching power supplies, although well-regulated linear supplies provide
optimum performance.
WARNING: When setting up the camera’s power supplies follow these guidelines:
Apply the appropriate voltages.
Protect the camera with a 2 amp slow-blow fuse between the power supply and the camera.
Do not use the shield on a multi-conductor cable for ground.
Keep leads as short as possible in order to reduce voltage drop.
Use high-quality supplies in order to minimize noise.
Note:
If your power supply does not meet these requirements, then the camera performance specifications
are not guaranteed.
LEDs
The camera is equipped with an LED on the back to display the operational status of the camera. The
table below summarizes the operating states of the camera and the corresponding LED states. When more
than one condition is active, the LED indicates the condition with the highest priority.
