|
|
| • With the screws on the terminal block facing down, | |||
|
|
| put the positive wire into the slot at the right rear of | |||
|
|
| the terminal block and put the negative wire into the | |||
|
|
| slot on the left. (On the Cisco power adapter, the | |||
|
|
| positive wire has a white stripe and the negative wire | |||
|
|
| has no stripe.) | |||
|
|
| • Use a small | |||
|
|
| screws on the bottom of the terminal block so that the | |||
|
|
| power adapter wires are attached securely. | |||
|
|
| Note The power adapter may include an attached | |||
|
|
| terminal block that does not fit the IP camera. If | |||
|
|
| so, remove that terminal block and replace it with | |||
|
|
| the one that is provided with the IP camera. | |||
|
|
| Next, plug the terminal block into the power input port on | |||
|
|
| back of the IP camera. The terminal block fits into the | |||
|
|
| input port in one way. Make sure that the tabs on the | |||
|
|
| terminal block face the bottom of the IP camera. | |||
|
|
| Finally, plug the power adapter into an electrical outlet. | |||
|
|
| The IP camera powers up. | |||
