Precautions for installation

The connection and installation should be done by qualified service personnel or system installers. Refer any servicing to qualified service personnel.

Concerning the installation location of the camera

Ensure that the installation location is strong enough to bear at least five times the total weight of the camera, lens, and cables (approx. 55.1 lbs. [25 kg]).

When mounting to a pan-tilt head or to a mounting bracket for installation, ensure that the location is strong enough to accommodate its weight as well.

The camera cannot be installed or used in the following locations.

Outdoor locations and locations where the camera may be exposed to dripping, splashing or sprayed water

Locations such as swimming pools where chemicals are used

Locations such as a kitchen where the high levels of steam and oily vapors are present and locations with flammable atmospheres or other unusual conditions

Locations where radioactive rays, X-rays or strong radio waves or magnetic fields are generated

Locations where the temperature may be outside the camera’s operating ambient temperature (14 °F to 113 °F [–10 °C to 45 °C]) range

Locations near the air outlet of an air conditioner or near a door where the camera will be exposed to incoming outside air or other locations where the temperature is subject to sudden change (since these locations may cause the lens area to cloud over and/or condensation to form)

Locations that are subject to significant vibration, such as on top of a car

Locations with high levels of humidity or dust

When the camera is not going to be used, do not leave it in place but be absolutely sure to remove it from its mounting, and put it away.

Do not run the camera cable near the wiring of electric lights.

This may result in noise interference.

Concerning electromagnetic interference

The camera’s images may become distorted or noise interference may result if the camera is used near a TV or radio transmission antenna or in strong electrical or magnetic fields (such as one generated by motors, transformers, etc.).
