Install The Camera - Panasonic AW-HR140PJ Operating Instructions Manual

Installation precautions (continued)
Be absolutely sure to use the supplied bolts to
„ „

install the camera.

• Do not mount the unit by employing any methods other than those
specified.
• Do not remodel the mounting screws provided with the unit.
Concerning humidity
„ „
Install the unit when humidity is low.
If the unit is installed when it is raining or humidity is high, moisture
will accumulate inside the unit and the inside of the front glass may
steam up.
Heater and defroster
„ „
The lower temperature limit for which operation of the unit is
guaranteed is –15 °C (5 °F).
The unit is equipped with an internal heater and defroster to enable
use in cold environments.
The heater and defroster automatically activate when the
approximate internal temperature of the unit reaches 0 °C (32 °F) or
below.
However, in harsh temperature environments of –15 °C (5 °F) or
below, thawing of snow or frost that forms on the front glass or
moving parts may not be possible.
When using the unit in especially cold environments, beware of the
ambient temperature and the camera's internal temperature.
When using the unit in temperature environments of –15 °C (5 °F)
or below, normal image capture may not be possible immediately
after startup.
In such cases, wait for the unit's heater to warm the inside of the
camera (at least 1 hour at –15 °C (5 °F) or below), and then turn the
unit off and then on again.
Protection from lightning
„ „
When cables are used outdoors, there is a chance that they may be
affected by lightning.
In this case, install a lightning arrester close to the unit to prevent
it from being affected by lightning, and keep the length of the
network cable between the lightning arrester and the unit as short
as possible.
Before installation, always disconnect the DC
„ „
connector
When installing, always use the supplied components.
Do not disassemble or modify the wall mount adaptor.
Tightening up the mounting screws
„ „
• Tighten up the screws and bolts securely to the degree that is
appropriate for each of the materials used in the mounting location
and structures.
• After tightening up the screws and bolts, check that there is no
unsteadiness and that the parts have been tightened securely.
• Use the specified tools and tighten the screws firmly.
• Tighten up the screws using the specified torque driver. Do not
use electrical drivers or impact drivers.
When the unit is no longer going to be used, do
„ „
not leave it lying around, but be absolutely sure
to dispose of it properly.
When installing, transferring or disposing of
„ „
the unit, be absolutely sure to hold it by its
pedestal area.
Problems may result if the camera head is held or rotated.
Do not attach a filter, extender or other parts to
„ „
the unit.
Power switch
„ „
This unit does not have a power switch.
When power is supplied, the pan, tilt, zoom, and focus test
operations are performed. Do not touch the unit during this time.
Before proceeding with maintenance, be absolutely sure to
disconnect the power plug from the power outlet.
Grounding
„ „
Before operating the unit, check that SIGNAL GND has been
securely grounded.
If there is a possibility of noise interference
„ „
Either wire the cables so that the power cable (ceiling light cord) of
AC 100 V (AC 220 V ) or more, and the signal cable are placed
1 2
* *
at least 1 meter (3.3 ft) apart.
Alternatively run each cable through its own metal conduit.
(The metal conduits must be grounded.)

Radio signal interference
„ „
If the unit is positioned near a TV or radio transmitting antenna or a
strong electrical field or magnetic field (such as that generated by a
motor, transformer or power lines), its images may be distorted and/
or the images may be affected by noise.
When connecting the cables, ensure that the
„ „
connector areas will not be subject to any load.
Doing so may cause malfunctioning.
Allowing the generated heat to escape
„ „
This unit allows the heat generated inside to escape from its
surfaces.
Do not install the unit in a location where it will be surrounded by
walls or other surfaces and where heat will be trapped.
In addition, the heat is dissipated to the bottom panel which will
warm up over time: This is normal and not indicative of any trouble.
PoE++ power supplies
„ „
Use a PoE++ (IEEE802.3bt Draft ver.2.0 standard) compatible hub
or power supply device.
Make sure installed screws do not touch any
„ „
wiring inside the ceiling.
Preventing injuries and interference during
„ „
operation
Take measures to prevent unauthorized persons from touching
or approaching the unit to prevent injuries and interference during
operation.
