Important: • Before setting up the camera for a configuration where the camera's RS485 data port is used for camera control (pan, tilt, etc.) by the system controller, the camera's DIP switches must be configured to specify the unit number and communication parameters. (This page) If DIP switch setting is not performed, the system controller control will not be possible and camera setup will have to be performed again. Be sure to check the DIP switch settings before setting up the camera. ■ Heat radiation The surface of the camera radiates heat. Ventilation holes should be provided when installing the camera in an enclosed ceiling or confined location where heat can build up. Ventilation holes ■ Beware of high humidity. If the camera is installed when humidity is very high, moisture may collect in the camera and cause the dome to become foggy. If the dome becomes foggy, remove it when the humidity is low and eliminate the moisture inside the camera, and then replace the dome.

Important:
•
Before setting up the camera for a configuration
where the camera's RS485 data port is used for
camera control (pan, tilt, etc.) by the system
controller, the camera's DIP switches must be
configured to specify the unit number and
communication parameters. (This page)
If DIP switch setting is not performed, the
system controller control will not be possible
and camera setup will have to be performed
again. Be sure to check the DIP switch settings
before setting up the camera
.

Heat radiation
The surface of the camera radiates heat. Ventilation
holes should be provided when installing the camera in
an enclosed ceiling or confined location where heat
can build up.
■
Beware of high humidity.
If the camera is installed when humidity is very high,
moisture may collect in the camera and cause the
dome to become foggy. If the dome becomes foggy,
remove it when the humidity is low and eliminate the
moisture inside the camera, and then replace the
dome. (page 7, 10)
