This manual offers reference material and general information about the basic operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting of the Dahua Multi-Sensor Panoramic Camera. Read, follow, and retain the following safety instructions. Heed all warning on the unit and in the operating instructions before operating the unit.
Ensure a service technician uses replacement parts specified by the manufacturer, or that have the same characteristics as the original parts. Unauthorized parts may cause fire, electrical shock, or other hazards. Dahua is not liable for any damage or harm caused by unauthorized modifications or repairs.
• Dahua recommends the use of a thunder-proof device in concert with the unit. • Do not touch the CCD or the CMOS optic sensor. Use a blower to clean dust or dirt on the lens surface.
• Video loss is inherent to all digital surveillance and recording devices; therefore Dahua cannot be held liable for any damage that results from missing video information. To minimize the occurrence of lost digital information, Dahua recommends multiple, redundant recording systems, and adoption of backup procedure for all data.

3 Installation and Configuration 3.1 Framework and Dimensions The following figures show the dimensions of the device in mm (in.). These images are intended as a reference only. Figure 3-1 3.2 Wiring The dome camera includes: Wire Color Connection Power 24 VAC Yellow/Green Earth Ground...
3.3 Alarm Setup Certain devices support alarm inputs and outputs, check your specific device for alarm capability. Alarm Input Refer to Figure 3-3 for alarm input configuration. The device collects that status of the alarm input port when the input signal is idle or grounded. If the input signal is connected to the 3.3 V or it is idle then the device receives the alarm input signal.
Certain cameras include a SDHC card slot for onboard storage that support a 128 GB Micro SD card. Dahua recommends using a SanDisk Extreme Micro SD card (or an equivalent substitute) as these cards have been fully tested without issue and the SanDisk Extreme line is better suited for constant recording.
A readily accessible 2-pole disconnect device with a contact separation of at least 3 mm must be incorporated. Note: Dahua recommends attaching a “drip loop” (flex or hard conduit) during installation to ensure condensation does not form in the mount or the conduit.
4.1 Preparing the Camera 1. Remove the camera, the mount accessories and any hardware packages from the boxes. 2. Remove the camera from the plastic wrapping. 3. Use the hex key to remove the three screws that secure the dome bubble to the camera housing. 4.
