CONNECTING AC POWER

The C10DN Series camera requires a power supply of 24 VAC ±15% 20.4–27.6 VAC, 50/60Hz. Make sure the power supply has a minimum rating of 270 mA.

When connecting more than one camera to the same AC transformer, remember the following information:

•Connect the same side of the transformer to the same terminal on all cameras; otherwise, the cameras may be out of phase, causing a vertical roll when switching between cameras (refer to Camera Synchronization on page 29 for more information).

•Use a transformer whose rated power supply has a minimum of 270 mA multiplied by the number of cameras.

To connect AC power, refer to Figure 4 and complete the following steps:

1.Strip at least 0.4 inches (10 mm) of the insulation from both power wires.

2.Connect both power wires to the terminal block that is supplied with the camera.

3.Plug the terminal block into the 2-pin connector on the back of the camera and tighten the screw.

4.If you are also using a ground wire, connect it to the screw marked GND.
