Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage
• Camera components can be damaged by static electricity. Not exercising the proper electrostatic
discharge (ESD) precautions can result in intermittent or complete component failures, and cause
the camera to malfunction.
• To minimize the potential for ESD damage:
–
Before you install the IP camera, touch a metal object with your hand to release any static
electricity that is in your body.
–
Always use an ESD-preventive antistatic wrist strap (or ankle strap) and ensure that it makes
good skin contact.
–
For safety, periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap. The measurement
should be between 1 and 10 megohm (Mohm).
In addition, follow these guidelines during installation:
• Handle camera unit by holding the edges only; avoid touching the printed circuit boards
• Never attempt to remove the printed circuit board
