7.01 Connecting Up

The fitted power and data cable is provided with bare ends to
aid in installation, so please ensure that care is taken in
identifying the relevant connections and polarity.

Data communications to cameras and other devices is
achieved via a two wire RS485 connection, and the data
connection pins on the controlled devices will be labelled
appropriately with a “+” (positive) and a “–“ (negative)
indicator.
Combinations of multiple control devices and multiple
cameras may be connected together using and Iris Data
Expander.

Power your unit from a dedicated fuse / breaker rated at
12VDC / 500mA. The unit operates when power to the
breaker / fuse is applied. Ensure suitably rated cable is
used to handle the required current and voltage.

Connections from the cable:

7.02 Powering Up

Never apply power to the device unless all connections are
terminated correctly. Never disconnect the DC ground for
any reason whilst the device is powered up as this could
result in damage to the electronic circuitry.

Upon power-up, the controller will perform a brief initialization
sequence that will take a few seconds. An animated
NightRunner logo is displayed in the LCD screen during this
period. After initialization the controller is ready to use.
