RADIO AND TELEVISION INTERFERENCE

This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits of a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC
rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated
in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed
and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of
this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the
interference at his own expense.

Changes and Modifications not expressly approved by the manufacturer or registrant of this equipment can void your authority
to operate this equipment under Federal Communications Commission’s rules.

LEGAL NOTICE [AUDIO NOTICE]

SOME PELCO EQUIPMENT CONTAINS, AND THE SOFTWARE ENABLES, AUDIO/VISUAL AND RECORDING
CAPABILITIES, THE IMPROPER USE OF WHICH MAY SUBJECT YOU TO CIVIL AND CRIMINAL PENALTIES.
APPLICABLE LAWS REGARDING THE USE OF SUCH CAPABILITIES VARY BETWEEN JURISDICTIONS AND MAY
REQUIRE, AMONG OTHER THINGS, EXPRESS WRITTEN CONSENT FROM RECORDED SUBJECTS. YOU ARE SOLELY
RESPONSIBLE FOR INSURING STRICT COMPLIANCE WITH SUCH LAWS AND FOR STRICT ADHERENCE TO ANY/ALL
RIGHTS OF PRIVACY AND PERSONALTY. USE OF THIS EQUIPMENT AND/OR SOFTWARE FOR ILLEGAL
SURVEILLANCE OR MONITORING SHALL BE DEEMED UNAUTHORIZED USE IN VIOLATION OF THE END USER
SOFTWARE AGREEMENT AND RESULT IN THE IMMEDIATE TERMINATION OF YOUR LICENSE RIGHTS

any/all right of privacy and personality.

VIDEO QUALITY CAUTION

FRAME RATE NOTICE REGARDING USER SELECTED OPTIONS
Pelco systems are capable of providing high quality video for both live viewing and playback. However, the systems can be
used in lower quality modes, which can degrade picture quality, to allow for a slower rate of data transfer and to reduce the
amount of video data stored. The picture quality can be degraded by either lowering the resolution, reducing the picture rate,
or both. A picture degraded by having a reduced resolution may result in an image that is less clear or even indiscernible. A
picture degraded by reducing the picture rate has fewer frames per second, which can result in images that appear to jump or
move more quickly than normal during playback. Lower frame rates may result in a key event not being recorded by the
system.

Judgment as to the suitability of the products for users' purposes is solely the users' responsibility. Users shall determine the
suitability of the products for their own intended application, picture rate and picture quality. In the event users intend to use
the video for evidentiary purposes in a judicial proceeding or otherwise, users should consult with their attorney regarding any
particular requirements for such use.

1. If necessary, loosen the 2 (T-6) SD card cover screws with a T-6 torx star wrench (supplied), and then remove the SD
card cover to insert a micro SD card (not supplied) into the slot. After that, use the T-6 torx star wrench to tighten the 2
(T-6) SD card cover screws and complete insertion. NOTE: The recommended torque of the screw is 0.3 Nm
(Newton meter).
2. Before mounting the camera, please make sure that the network cable, power cable and digital I/O cables have been
passed through a Pelco mount (IWM) series (not supplied). Refer to the instructions supplied with the mount.
3. If using the supplied water proof gland (recommended), puncture a round hole(s) in the gland that is smaller than the
diameter of the cable that will be passed through the gland. Feed an unterminated cable thru the hole in the gland.
Terminate the cable with the appropriate connector.
4. Apply anti-seize lubricant (supplied) to the camera’s pendant cap threads before attaching the camera to the mount.
After that, mount the camera on a Pelco mount (IWM) series (not supplied).
NOTES:
a. Mounts must be sealed to prevent condensation in the camera.
b. Please install the camera carefully to avoid dropping the camera and injuring the installer.
c. Do not fully tighten the camera to the mount. Thread the camera onto the mount ensuring the T-20 screws
on the top of the camera are accessible.
5. Loosen the 3 (T-20) pendant cap screws with a T-20 torx star wrench (supplied), and let the camera’s body shift
downward.
