Connecting the power cable

ADCTDN2412 (AC24 V or DC12 V)

Connect the AC 24 V or the DC 12 V power cord to the power input terminal. To prevent connection errors or a cable disconnection, we recommend the use of lug plates.

The following table shows the connection distances when 2-core VVF (vinyl-insulated vinyl sheath cables) are used.

Maximum connection distance	60 m	150 m	240 m	380 m
	(197 ft)	(492 ft)	(787 ft)	(1247 ft)
Conductor diameter	AWG18	AWG14	AWG12	AWG10
	(R1.0 mm)	(R1.6 mm)	(R2.0 mm)	(R2.6 mm)
	and more	and more	and more	and more

Note:

●If thin cables are used, the resistance of the cables will be high and a significant voltage drop will occur when the camera is at its maximum power consumption. Either use a thick cable with low resistance or place the power supply near to the camera and shorten the length of the cable to restrict the voltage drop at the rated current of camera to below 10 %. If voltage drop occurs during operation, the performance will be unstable.

●Do not connect an AC 24 V cable to a commercial power supply. The camera will be damaged. If the wrong cable is connected, the internal circuit may be damaged. Do not use the camera. Bring it to your nearest American Dynamics dealer for inspection.

ADCTDN0230P (AC 220 V-240 V)

Connect the power supply cable to the AC 220 V-240 V power supply.

Note:

●When you use this camera, the socket - outlet must be installed near the equipment to make disconnect on easily.

Video signal coaxial cable

Use either RG-59 or RG-11 coaxial cable (BNC).

Do not use other cables.
