Caution

• Do not touch the shield of the camera cable connected
to a computer and the ground terminal of the lines at the
same time.
• If you are charged: before touching the shield of the cam-
era cable, make sure to discharge first (by touching the
ground terminal of the lines).
• Use only DC power supplies with insulated cases. These
are identified by having only two power connectors.
• If you feel uncomfortable with the previous advice or if
you have no knowledge about the connectivity of an
installation, we strongly recommend powering down
all systems before connecting or disconnecting a cam-
era.
