1.2 How to Turn on the Camera

The camera supports two power supply methods: via an AC adaptor (Model No.

BB-HCA2A: Option) and from a PoE hub through an Ethernet cable. To turn the

camera on/off, follow the instructions described below.

When using the AC Adaptor (Model No. BB-HCA2A: Option)

• Connecting the plug of the AC cord to the outlet turns the camera on.

• Disconnecting the plug of the AC cord from the outlet turns the camera off.

When using a PoE hub (Connecting the AC adaptor is not necessary.)

• Connecting the Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on the PoE hub turns the

camera on.

• Disconnecting the Ethernet cable from the Ethernet port on the PoE hub turns

the camera off.

Note

• Using both the AC adaptor and PoE hub simultaneously will not cause the

camera to malfunction, but using either one of the two methods is

recommended.
