-
Do not throw, drop, or collide the camera with other objects. The camera may be damaged by strong shock or vibration. It is PROHIBITED to modify the camera in any form. Do not repair or disassemble the camera by yourself. Mech-Mind shall not be liable for any damage caused by repair or disassembly not performed by Mech-Mind.
-
Do not allow any foreign object, such as metal pieces, dust, paper, and wood chips, to enter the camera. Failure to do so may lead to fire, electric shock, malfunction, etc.
-
Do not use the camera at extremely high or low temperature. The operating temperature range is -10–45°C for the LSR and DEEP series, and 0–45°C for other series.
-
Please use the camera indoors.
-
Please use the camera at elevations below 4,000 meters.
-
Please install the camera in a well-circulated, open place.
Check the Camera
-
Before using, please check the camera carefully for damage, signs of water entry, suspicious odor, smoke, loose or damaged bolts, etc., and make sure that the camera is in proper working conditions. If any of the above abnormalities occur, please disconnect the power immediately.
-
High temperature will age the power cable. Please check the power cable regularly for signs of aging. If the cable has aged, please contact Mech-Mind to acquire a replacement.
Usage of Adapter/DIN Rail Power Supply
-
DO NOT use if the power port, adapter/DIN rail power supply, or power socket is wet.
-
DO NOT heat or put the adapter/DIN rail power supply and power cable in fire.
-
For power, please use a 24 V isolated adapter with an output power of at least 90 W or a 24 V isolated DIN rail power supply.
-
Please use the specified voltage. Failure to do so may lead to fire, electric shock, malfunction, etc. The adapter/DIN rail power supply and power cable should be properly grounded. It is recommended to use the isolated adapter/DIN rail power supply provided by Mech-Mind.
-
Power plugs should be properly grounded. Do not place the adapter/DIN rail power supply in a place that is hard to disconnect the power.
-
Please install the DIN rail power supply inside a control cabinet.
Precautions for Using Laser Cameras
-
DO NOT look into the laser beam or the reflected laser beam directly. Do not look into the laser beam with optical instruments. Failure to do so may lead to eye injuries. DO NOT direct the laser at other people.
-
The laser beam must be lower or higher than and never at eye level.
-
Be cautious of the path of the laser beam. If there is a possibility that personnel may be exposed to the specular or diffuse reflections, block the beam by installing a protective enclosure. Do not enter the areas that the laser/reflected laser output reaches. Do not place any reflective light object (mirror, glass, metal, etc.) in the path of the laser beam.
-
LASER ENERGY - EXPOSURE NEAR APERTURE MAY CAUSE BURNS. NOTE: The risk of skin injury is only likely for highly divergent beams for exposure close to the aperture.
Notice for Disposal
-
Please comply with local laws and regulations when disposing of the camera to avoid polluting the environment. Please do not dispose of the camera irresponsibly. Improper disposal may pollute the environment.

Connect the Camera
|
Ethernet Cable
As shown below, insert the M12-A connector of the Ethernet cable to the ETH port on the camera, and insert the RJ45 connector to the Ethernet port on the computer.
DC Power Cable
As shown below, insert the M12-A connector of the DC power cable to the DC 24V port on the camera.
Connect the M12-A connectors of the cables to the corresponding ports:
-
When inserting, align the bump in the connector with the notch in the port.
-
Tighten the nut. A gap of about 2 mm remains after the nut is fully tightened.
DIN Rail Power Supply
When wiring the DIN rail power supply, wires of the power cable must be inserted to the corresponding input/output terminals, as shown above.
-
The AC power cable has three wires: L, N, and PE (
). -
The 24 V DC power cable has three wires: V+, V- and PE (
).
Warning
The PE wires must be properly grounded! Please install the DIN rail power supply inside a control cabinet.
| A network switch can be used to connect multiple cameras or computers. |
