Connect the Camera to the Network and Perform the Initial Setting
The network connection is now complete.
When using external power supply
When using external power supply, use the Power
Connector (
→ P.vi) supplied with the camera as shown
to the right.
Supply 12VDC or 24VAC from a power supply
insulated from 100-240VAC supply. You can connect
12VDC power supply without regard to the polarity.
When using an external power supply, make sure that
the voltage falls within the ranges below.
AC24V: Voltage fluctuation within AC24V
±10%
Current supply capability over 1.0A per camera
DC12V: Voltage fluctuation within DC12V
±10%
Current supply capability over 1.5A per camera
* If using a DC12V battery power source, make sure to use the DC12V by connecting a resistor
that is between 0.5 and 1.0
Ω, and over 20W in series to the power supply line.

Note
● The camera head position is automatically initialized when the power supply is
turned ON.
● Never touch the camera head while its position is being initialized. If you touch it,
the head position may not be initialized correctly, or other malfunctions may result.
● Wait at least 5 seconds before turning the power back on after shutting it off. Turning
it on too quickly may result in a malfunction. Observe the precautions given in
“Safe Use of Equipment/IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS (
→ P.viii, x), “Safe
Use of Equipment/When using the camera with PoE HUB ( → P.xii) when plugging
and unplugging the power cable.
● Read the manual of the PoE HUB for how to power it ON or OFF.
● You can connect the AC adapter (optional) to the camera while it is powered from the
PoE HUB. In this case, the PoE-supplied power is used while it is active, and the
power from the AC adapter (optional) is not used. When the PoE-supplied power is
disconnected, the power supply automatically switches to the AC adapter (optional).
