Installation precautions

Use the dedicated AC adapter and power cable provided 
with the unit.
Connect the AC adapter and power cable to the power inlet 
securely.
The power cable supplied with this unit must always be used 
with this unit. The unit cannot be used with a power cable 
which is not supplied with the unit. Neither can the power 
cable supplied with the unit be used with any other device.

Installing the AC adapter

p

p

Do not place the AC adapter in direct contact with a floor 
or any other such surface. An extreme danger is posed 
by water pooling on the surface as a result of leaking 
rainwater or some other reason. 
Anchor the AC adapter securely to a surface on which no 
water, dust, etc. will collect.

p

p

Secure the adapter firmly so that there will be no chance 
that it will fall off or fall down. 
Secure it using a strength which can withstand the mass  
of the AC adapter.

Install the accessory AC adapter near the main power 
outlet, and position it in such a way that its power plug 
can be plugged into and unplugged from the outlet easily.
If the AC adapter is to be connected where dust collects, 
remove the dust and dirt from the power plug at regular 
intervals as a measure to prevent tracking.

Power switch
This unit does not have a power switch. The power turns 
on when its power plug is connected to a power outlet. 
When the power is turned on, the pan, tilt, zoom and 
focusing operations are performed. Before proceeding with 
maintenance, be absolutely sure to disconnect the power 
plug from the power outlet.

Connecting the power cable
Be absolutely sure to connect the power cable of the 
AC adapter through a circuit breaker using one of the 
following methods.

(1) Connect the power cable through a power control unit.
(2)  Connect the power cable to a circuit breaker in a 

power distribution panel with a contact distance of 
3.0 mm or more. 
Use a circuit breaker which is capable of shutting 
off all the poles of the main power supply with the 
exception of the protective ground conductor.

(3)  Install the AC adapter near the power outlet, and 

connect it through the power plug.

If there is a possibility of noise interference
Either wire the cables so that the power cable (ceiling light 
cord) of AC 100 V or more, and the signal cable are placed 
at least 1 m {3.3 feet} apart. Alternatively run each cable 
through its own metal conduit. (The metal conduits must be 
grounded.)

Radio signal interference
If the unit is positioned near a TV or radio transmitting 
antenna or a strong electrical field or magnetic field (such as 
that generated by a motor, transformer or power lines), its 
images may be distorted and/or the images may be affected 
by noise.

When connecting the cables, ensure that the connector 
areas will not be subject to any load.
Doing so may cause malfunctioning.

Allowing the generated heat to escape
This unit allows the heat generated inside to escape from its 
surfaces.
Do not install the unit in a location where it will be 
surrounded by walls or other surfaces and where heat will 
be trapped. In addition, the heat is dissipated to the bottom 
panel which will warm up over time: This is normal and not 
indicative of any trouble.
