AC Operation Only – If you are wiring more than one camera to the same transformer, connect one side of the transformer to the same terminal on all cameras, and connect the other side of the transformer to the remaining terminal on all cameras. Failure to connect all of the cameras the same way will cause the cameras to be out of phase with each other and may produce a vertical roll when switching between cameras.

Table A. Recommended Wire Gauge and Wiring Distances

The following are the recommended maximum distances for 24 VAC applications and are calculated with a

10-percent voltage drop. (Ten percent is generally the maximum allowable voltage drop for AC-powered devices.)
