Powering the Camera

The power consumption specification is: Power over Ethernet; <4.7 W.
Power can also be provided through the GPIO interface. For more information, see
camera selects whichever power source is supplying a higher voltage.
FLIR sells a 12 V wall-mount power supply equipped with a HR25 8-pin GPIO wiring harness for connecting to the
camera. For more information, see our
Power can be provided over the Ethernet interface (PoE). To use PoE, you must also have a powered Ethernet
card, a powered Ethernet switch, or an Ethernet power injector.
Power can also be provided through the GPIO interface on the back of the case. For more information, see
Input/Output Control.
If both interfaces are connected, the camera always uses external power over the GPIO connector. If external
power is not connected, the camera uses PoE. The camera reboots when switching between power sources.
The camera does not transmit images for the first 100 ms after power- up. The auto- exposure and auto- white
balance algorithms do not run while the camera is powered down. It may therefore take several (n) images to get a
satisfactory image, where n is undefined.
When the camera is power cycled (power disengaged then re-engaged), the camera reverts to its default factory
settings, or if applicable, the last saved memory channel. For more information, see
Channels).
