Precautions of Mounting Avoid squashing, shaking, or damping the device in transport, storage, and mounting. Keep away from vibration sources as much as possible during mounting. Mount the device outdoors, and protecting device connectors with effective waterproof, moisture‐proof, and dust‐proof solutions. Particularly, screws at connectors must be tightened to ensure that the device is entirely sealed. For lightning protection, you may mount the lightning arrester. When mounting the camera, properly mount the adapter and the bracket connector, and then fasten the tail cable unit and the adapter. ...
When moving the device, do not hold the tail cable by hand for weight bearing. Otherwise, the cable connector of the device could be loosened. Do not cut off the tail cable for connection purposes. A bare tail cable may easily cause a short circuit, resulting in abnormality or damage to the device. ...
In maintenance, avoid immersing the device into foreign materials or corrosive liquids, in order to avoid dangers. Contact our company's local agent for all maintenance. Avoid opening or disassembling the protection housing by yourself, which could result in electrical shock or other dangers, and the device may be damaged. The company is not responsible for such damages. 3 Installation This chapter describes how to mount a dome with a high speed dome as an example.
