Feed t

he upper cables from lef

t to right through the upper

cable restraint, then bundle with the lo

wer cables and feed

left to right through the lower restraint.

Restraining The Cable Connections

For upper (ie GEN LOCK) cable connections (if used)

1. Locate the cable restraint on the back left side of the camera.

2. Insert cable(s) through the cable restraint from left to right.

Note: Allow 16” of cable between the restraint and the connection
port to provide enough slack for the camera’s tilting movement.

3. Tighten the restraint by pulling on the strap’s “free” end to prevent

any cable from becoming dislodged. (the cable restraint is reusable
and adjustable).

4. Group the cables with all the other cables connected to the connector

box and follow the instructions below to feed them through the lower
cable restraint.

For lower cable connections

1. Insert all cables (upper and lower) through the cable restraint from left

to right. This will result in the cables being located approximately in
the center of the camera, instead of near the edge.

2. Tighten the restraint by pulling on the strap’s “free” end to prevent any

cable from becoming dislodged.

Note: To relieve undue stress on the camera and the cable
connections, it is important to fasten all cables using the cable
restrainer on the back of the camera.

Note: Be sure to leave enough slack in the cables for the camera
to pan left and right free of any constraints.

Connecting The Power Supply

Mount the Power Supply with any orientation, or on top of a table or roll-about
unit by using the following steps.

1. Verify that the POWER switch, on the back of the camera, is turned

OFF.

2. Plug the 5.5mm female connector from the power supply cord into the

DC POWER jack in the back of the camera.

3. Connect the other end of the power supply into a 120 VAC source.

Notice that if left alone, the connected cables may impede the camera’s movement. To
combat this, the 3-CCD DIGITAL Camera comes equipped with two cable restrainers on
the left back, and on the Mini Docking Station. Follow the instructions below to properly
restrain the cables and power-up the camera.
