Safety Precautions

Read all of the following instructions before setting up your camera. Save
this document for later use.
1. Follow all warnings and instructions in this manual and in other user
guides shipped with your hardware components.
2. Do not attempt to disassemble the camera. Do not remove screws
or attachments. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Refer
servicing to PPT Vision or your local distributor.
3. All PPT digital cameras connect to the vision device using a
standard Digital Serial Link (DSL) cable (Part # 431-0452-xx). Do
not attempt to use any other cable. (See page 26 for Camera Link
cables.)
4. This camera is designed for indoor use. Do not expose it to
moisture, including rain or snow, and avoid operating it in wet
areas. Should the camera become wet, turn off the power
immediately. Moisture can damage the camera and create danger
of electric shock. Avoid using the camera when the humidity is
above 80%.
5. Make sure your camera has enough airflow for proper ventilation.
The maximum safe case temperature during operation is 45° C
(114° F).
6. Mount the camera body in a fixed position where it will not be
subject to excessive vibration. To reduce stress on the camera
connectors and cable, loop the cable and fasten it to the camera's
mounting block. Do not crimp or tie the cable tightly with wire ties as
this may damage it internally. The cable's minimum bend radius is
fifteen times the cable diameter. It is not intended for continuous
flexing or movement.
