Q- How can I tell if the illuminator is on?
A- When powered up in the dark, there will be a visible red glow coming from the IR LED’s. You can also
test it with your IR sensitive camera and a monitor.
Q- Why do the IR LED’s have a red glow?
A- The 850nm infrared LED’s emit some slight radiation in the visible red region. These LED’s are as
“invisible” as possible while still being compatible with many IR sensitive cameras. NetMedia also
offers a 940nm illuminator (NM-IRJBOX) that gives off no red but most cameras cannot see the IR in
that range. NetMedia’s Day/Night color cameras can see with the 940nm LED’s.
Q- The illuminator is on, why doesn’t my camera see anything?
A- Make sure the camera is sensitive to IR at 850nm. NetMedia’s B/W and Day/Night color cameras will
work but most color cameras are not IR sensitive at all. Make sure the unit is properly powered. Make
sure there is actually something to see within its illumination area.
Q- How can I increase the length of the power cord?
A- The illuminator has a minimum power requirement of 12V DC 300mA. You may use another power
supply and cable but the connector needs to be just like the power plug of the included
transformer, 5.5mm outer dia., 2.1mm inner dia., center positive. Do not cut the cables coming out of
the illuminator or you will void the warranty. Do not reverse the polarity on the power jack/plug or
you will damage the illuminator and void the warranty.
