Incorrectly mounted lenses can damage camera components.
When mounting a lens on the camera, do not overtighten the lens. Otherwise, the screw

thread of the lens mount can be damaged.
For dart CS-mount variants:

Make sure that the lens does not intrude into the camera body more than 7 mm (color

cameras) or 11 mm (mono cameras). Otherwise, the IR cut filter (color cameras) or the
sensor (mono cameras) can be damaged.
If you want to use C-mount lenses for dart CS-mount cameras, make sure that you

attach a CS-mount adapter ring to the C-mount lens before mounting it on the camera.
Otherwise, the lens may reach too far into the camera and damage the IR cut filter
(color cameras) or the sensor (mono cameras).
For dart S-mount variants:

On S-mount cameras, the lens is screwed in and out to reach the desired level of focus.

S-mount lenses do not have a defined flange and therefore will not stop before they
touch (and possibly scratch or break) the sensor glass.
Do not screw in the lens deeper than 11.7 mm, especially during focusing.


(AW0001305).
Voltage outside of the specified range can cause damage.
You must supply camera power that complies with the Universal Serial Bus 3.0 specification.

The camera's nominal operating voltage is +5 VDC.
The dart cameras must only be connected to other limited power sources (LPS) / Safety

Extra Low Voltage (SELV) circuits that do not represent any energy hazards.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage the sensor and the circuit board.
Use anti-static clothes and materials, e.g. conductive shoes, anti-static gloves, and ESD

protection wrist straps to decrease the risk of electrostatic discharge.
Use conductive materials and install conductive mats at the point of installation (e.g. floor,

workplace) to prevent the generation of static electricity.
Control the humidity in your environment. Low humidity can cause ESD problems.
