Cable Restraint and System Power
Notice that if left alone, the connected cables may
impede the camera’s movement. To combat this, the
3e 3-CCD Camera comes equipped with two cable
restrainers on the left back, and on the Mini Docking
Station. Follow these instructions to properly restrain
the cables and power-up the camera.
1. Locate the cable restraint on the back left side of
the camera.
2. Insert cable(s) through the cable restraint from
left to right.
Note: Allow 16” of cable between the restraint and
the connection port to provide enough slack for the
camera’s tilting movement.
3. Tighten the restraint by pulling on the strap’s
“free” end to prevent any cable from becoming
dislodged. (The cable restraint is reusable and
adjustable).
4. Group the cables with all the other cables con-
nected to the connector box and follow the
instructions below to feed them through the
lower cable restraint.
For lower cable connections
1. Insert all cables (upper and lower) through the
cable restraint from left to right. This will result in
the cables being located approximately in the
center of the camera, instead of near the edge.
2. Tighten the restraint by pulling on the strap’s
“free” end to prevent any cable from becoming
dislodged.
Note: To relieve undue stress on the camera and
the cable connections, it is important to fasten all
cables using the cable restrainer on the back of the
camera.
Note: Be sure to leave enough slack in the cables
for the camera to pan left and right free of any con-
straints.
