ConnectingExternalPower
IfPoEisnotavailable,thecameraneedstobepoweredthroughtheremovablepowerconnectorblock.Refertothe
diagramsinthisguideforthelocationofthepowerconnectorblock.
Thepowerconsumptioninformationislistedintheproductspecifications.
Toconnectpowertothepowerconnectorblock,completethefollowingsteps:
1. Removethepowerconnectorblockfromthecamera.
2. Removetheinsulationfrom¼”(6mm)ofthepowerwires.Donotnickordamagethewires.
3. Insertthetwopowerwiresintothetwoterminalsonthepowerconnectorblock.Theconnectioncanbemade
witheitherpolarity.
Useasmallslotted(5/64”or2mmbladewidth)screwdrivertoloosenandtightentheterminals.
4. Attachthepowerconnectorblockbackintothecamera.
SeamlessFailover
IfthecamerahaspoweravailablefrombothanexternalAuxpowersupplyandaPoEPSE(PowerSourcing
Equipment)device,thecamerawilldrawpowerfromAux.Intheeventthatthecameralosespowerfromthe
preferredAuxpowersupplyitcantransitiontodrawingpowerfromthePoEPSEdevice.
ThiscameraiscapableofSeamlessFailover,allowingthecameratotransitionbetweenPoEandauxiliarypower
sourceswithoutanyinterruptionofcameraoperationorvideorecording.Thisismainlyusefulifyouwantredundant
powersourcessothatbackuppowerwillbeavailableifonepowersourcegoesdown.
