Notes Interface board (not supplied) 3 • Do not grasp the camera head when carrying the camera. • Do not turn the camera head by hand. Doing so may result in the camera malfunctioning. Tighten the two screws on the interface board.
Installing the Camera on the Ceiling Installation example Using the supplied ceiling brackets, wire rope, screws and the attachment materials (not supplied), you can attach the camera to the ceiling. When you install the camera, always install it on a level ceiling. If you have to install it on an inclined ceiling, make sure that the inclination is within ±15 degrees, so that the pan/tilt performance is guaranteed. 1 Remove the cable cover on the rear of the camera.
8 WARNING For attaching the camera to the ceiling bracket, use only the supplied screws. Using other screws may damage the camera. 5 Attach the attachment materials (not supplied) to the ceiling bracket (B), and install the bracket on the ceiling. Align the f hole on the ceiling bracket (B) in the direction where the front of the camera will be positioned later.
10 Connect the cables to the connectors on the rear of the camera. Ceiling Connections Connecting to an AC Outlet Use the supplied AC power adaptor and AC power cord to connect the camera to an AC outlet. Note AC power adaptor MPA-AC1 (supplied) Take the proper steps to ensure that the load of the cables connected does not cause problems. 11 Attach the cable cover. For attachment, see page 50.
Connecting the RM-BR300 Remote Control Unit Use the RS-232C connecting cable supplied with the Remote Control Unit. To connect the Remote Control Unit using the VISCA RS-422 connectors You can use the VISCA RS-422 connectors to connect the RM-BR300 Remote Control Unit to the camera instead of the VISCA RS-232C connectors.
