• Parts list and other reference information Additional References Your M-Series camera comes with a complete documentation set on a CD (FLIR Doc. # 432-0003-00-16) that includes this manual as well as others. All documents are in PDF format and can be viewed with Adobe Acrobat Reader: •... -
Page 8: Warnings And Cautions
Caution: Be careful not to leave fingerprints on the M-Series camera optics. Caution: The M-Series requires a power supply of 12 – 24V DC nominal, 5 Amp maximum. Absolute voltage range: 10 – 32V DC. Operating the camera outside of the specified input voltage range or the specified operating temperature range can cause permanent damage. -
Page 9: Installation Overview
• Six M6 x 60 stainless steel-threaded studs with washers and nylock nuts or acorn nuts, for attaching the M-Series camera body. The length required depends on the mounting platform thickness. See “Camera Mounting Options” on page 8 for more details. -
Page 10: Installation Planning
You should consider a number of factors in planning the installation of the M-Series camera and JCU. General Location Considerations First determine a good location for mounting the M-Series camera unit and the JCU. The camera requires at least three connections: • One for power •... -
Page 11: Camera Mounting Options
Upright Installation In most installations, the M-Series is mounted upright on top of a mounting surface, with the pan/tilt base below the camera; this is known as the ball up orientation. Optionally, the unit (unless it is the M-618CS model) can be hung upside down or ball down. -

M-Series video output. Make sure the area you choose leaves enough room for the cable under the JCU (refer to the M-Series ICD for dimensions). The magnetic compass safe distance for the JCU is 55 cm (21.7 in). -
Page 13: Multiple Jcu/Camera Installations
Installing M-Series Systems When selecting a mounting location for the M-Series, consider cable lengths and cable routing. Ensure the cables are long enough, given the proposed mounting locations and cable routing requirements, and route the cables before you install the components. -
Page 14: Physical Installation
Installing the Camera Unit With the exception of theM-618CS model, which must be installed in the ball-up orientation, the M-Series camera can be mounted in an upright or upside down position. Two O-rings are provided for use during the camera installation. You should choose the one most appropriate for your configuration: •... -

(OSD) menu system is used to configure the camera for the ball-down position. See the M-Series Operator’s Manual for details. When the camera is mounted upside down (ball down), the camera base must be rotated backwards, to point toward the stern of the vessel. - Page 16 If you intend to mount the JCU to a panel of 0.79 cm (0.31 in) thickness or less, remove the clamps from the mounting screws, turn them around and thread them back onto each of the four screws. In this configuration, the clamp foot faces the 432-0003-00-12 Rev 140 — M-Series Installation Guide www.netzerotools.com...

RJ45 waterproof enclosure connector (FLIR PN 4115028). The Ethernet network cable should be rated for use with PoE devices (IEEE802.3af) and should be 8-conductor T568B, Ethernet, double-shielded for EMI considerations (FLIR PN 308-0163-25 or equivalent). 432-0003-00-12 Rev 140 — M-Series Installation Guide www.netzerotools.com... -
