Installation

Use the following procedures to install the PTZ camera.

 

NOTES: Observe the following points:

  • Check the source power before powering on the camera. The PTZ can be powered via a 30 W PoE+ switch or with 12VDC. Under or overpowering the camera will cause damage and poor performance that may not be immediately visible. If using PoE+ switch, be sure the port is properly configured for 30 W. If using DC power and connecting to a network switch, be sure the port is not set for PoE.
  • Do not power the camera with PoE+ and a power supply at the same time. Doing so may cause it to malfunction.

  • Do not operate the camera beyond the specified temperature and humidity limits. Operating range of the camera is between 32°F - 104°F (0°C -40°C). Ambient humidity should be less than 95%RH.

  • Do not remove any screws from the camera. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Contact Crestron True Blue Support if the camera is damaged or malfunctioning.
  • Do not aim the camera lens at the sun or extremely bright lights. Doing so can damage the image sensor.
  • Do not move the camera head manually. Doing so can damage the camera and inner gear systems. Do not carry the camera by the head; always handle the camera by the base.

  • Do not directly expose the camera to rain, water, or high moisture.

  • This camera is for indoor use only.
