Connecting the DOG IR Illuminator

The IR Illuminator is a component from the DOG IR Illuminator Kit, which is available from S4-Tech.
Take an IR illuminator (with or without the IR filter installed) and remove the wind nut from the base
bolt. Push the bolt through the large upper hole on the accessory mounting bracket as shown in the figure
below. Then attach the wing nut and finger tighten onto the bracket.

Connecting the IR Illuminator Cable

The IR Illuminator power cable is connected as seen in the figure below and described in the DOG IR
Illuminator Kit User Manual. Once the cable has been connected, wire tie the two terminals from the
illuminator to the CAT-5 interface cable as shown below. Leave several feet of slack and wire tie the
cables to any solid object below the mounting bracket for strain relief.

Figure 21: Connecting the IR Illuminator Power Cable

The strain relief should always be lower than the High Performance Low Profile PTZ unit (6 inches to
several feet) and there should always be sufficient slack in the cables for the unit to go through its full
range of pan motion without the cables being caught or bound-up.
