When shutting down the sytem, follow these guidelines:
• ,Take special care when handling the fiber cable and to the Camera Remote Control
Panel Cable.
• Power switches for the camera, Camera Unit, and Base Station may be turned off in any
order.
• To prevent looking directly into an active fiber optic port or cable, turn both Camera
Unit and Base Station off before disconnecting the fiber from either point.
• To prevent damaging the camera or camera remote control panel (RCP), turn both
Camera Unit and Base Station off before disconnecting the CHCR remote cable from
the camera or the CHBR remote cable from the RCP.
• Cap your fiber optic connectorsto keep them clean.
• Protect all cables from dirt, water entry, and from being dragged across the ground or
other surfaces.
• When re-spooling the cable, avoid cable snags and crimps, and take care not to
damage the connectors.
• When re-spooling the fiber cable on to the spool, guide it across the entire width of the
spool so that it winds evenly,reducing the possibility of cinching or kinks.
• If Base Station is a permanent or semi-permanent installation, power off and
disconnect and cap the fiber cable.
