Caution
• The external INPUT interface is not capable of connecting directly to
devices that require large amounts of current. In some cases, a
custom interface circuit (customer-provided) may have to be used.
Serious damage to the camera may result if a device that exceeds
its electrical capability is connected to the external INPUT interface.
• Low voltage/current circuits and high voltage/current circuits are
used in the camera circuit. All wiring should be performed by a
qualified electrician. Incorrect wiring could damage the camera and
cause a fatal electric shock.
