CONNECTING POWER
The C10DN-6 and C10DN-6X are designed to operate from either a 12 VDC or a 24 VAC power source. The camera automatically senses power type.
Use only a Class 2 isolated power source that can supply 12 VDC ±15% or 24 VAC ±15%, 50/60 Hz. Maximum power consumption is about 3.5 W.
NOTES:
• Be sure to use 60 Hz power for NTSC (C10DN-6) and 50 Hz power for PAL (C10DN-6X and C10DN-7X).
• Install the camera near a socket or outlet that is easily accessible.
Use Table B to help you identify the necessary wire gauge and maximum cable distance. This table applies to 2-conductor solid copper wire.
(Reduce distance by 10 percent for stranded copper wire.) These maximum distances are based on a maximum allowable voltage drop of
10 percent.
C10DN-7X CAMERA ONLY
The C10DN-7X camera uses a power main supply of 220–240 VAC, 50 Hz. This main supply must also have a minimum rating of 50 mA.
WARNINGS:
• Do not connect high voltage power to the camera because you may damage the camera.
• Do not short circuit the power leads when connecting the power supply to the camera.
• Do not remove the connector cover during camera operation.
