Powering Up the Camera
Connect camera power.
The camera will run a self-test routine and move to its home position. This will take a few seconds.
When the camera is initialized and ready, video is available and the status light is blue. At this point, the
camera is ready to accept control information.
Note
Wait until the camera finishes initializing before trying to operate or control it.
