Instruction manual
Use the formula below to select the correct power supply for cameras connected in parallel (positive to positive, negative to negative):
Total current for a 24 VAC system:
TOTAL CURRENT = (202mA x total number of cameras) Example: 202mA x 5 total cameras = 1010mA
Note: 202mA is camera plus power supply
CABLE AND POWER GUIDELINES
This chart shows the proper current needed for power supplies for Q-View Series cameras. Use Class 2 Power only. Input voltage must be 24 VAC/VDC.
Power Supply Cable Maximum Length (feet/meters)
NOTE: The above table is based on a "worst-case" power supply. Using a regulated or switching power supply can increase your cable
distance. Videolarm recommends using our PS24 power supply, or a CSA/UL listed Class 2 power supply.
