 Do not place the unit on an unstable surface to 

avoid falling. Use only UL Listed Vicon recommended mounting 

accessories. 

9. Ventilation -

 Do not block ventilating slots and openings as 

they ensure reliable operation. Do not place the unit near a heat 

source or into an enclosure unless recommended by Vicon. 

10. Power Sources -

 Power supply cords should not be 

routed in trafficked areas or in tight spaces where they will be 

pinched or used to bear weight. Allow some slack in the cord 

where it enters the unit. 

13. Outdoor Cable Grounding -

 Use only grounded outdoor 

cables to protect against voltage surges and static charges. 

Section 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70-

 Take all normal electrostatic discharge 

precautions to avoid component damage during installation and 

operation. 

23. For 230 VAC Devices Only -

not incorporated in the equipment or when the plug on the power 

supply is intended to serve as the disconnect device, follow the 

guidelines below: 

a)  For permanently connected 230 VAC units, a readily 

accessible disconnect device must be incorporated into the 

site wiring. 

b) 

For 230 VAC units with a plug, the outlet must be installed 

near the unit and be easily accessible.
