•Do not expose the camera to extremes of temperature.
•Do not leave the unit in direct sunlight or close to heating appliances for extended periods.

•Be careful when connecting and disconnecting triax cables.
–Do not mix triax units from different types of camera systems (HD with SD, RGB triax with digital triax).
–Make connections swiftly and firmly to avoid false error messages.
