INITIAL PREPARATIONS • The camera voltage regulator board (VRB) accepts an input voltage of either 12V dc or 24V ac, and a range in-between, from a regulated power supply. • The VRB automatically switches between ac or dc inputs, therefore no internal wiring changes are necessary to accommodate these input voltages.
1. COVER REMOVAL The camera’s cover must be removed prior to adjustment for LED brightness or setting the camera’s lens angle. The set-screw located at the bottom of the cover casting is not tightened at the factory and protrudes by 1/8" (3mm) in order for the cover to be easily rotated.

2. INPUT POWER CONNECTIONS Attention: External Video Cable Systems Must Be Properly Grounded In Accordance With The National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70. The EX70 and EX70N cameras are pre- connected with an electrically isolated power board (VRB) for 24V ac or 12V dc operation, with no change to the polarity of the wires.

3. MOUNTING – CAMERA BASE Caution: Install with the appropriate screws or drywall anchors to suit the mounting surface. Select a suitable location that is protected from accidental damage, tampering and environmental conditions which could exceed the camera’s specifications. See page 24. Caution: Ensure the selected location is protected from falling objects, accidental contact with moving objects, and unintentional interference from...

4. CAMERA / LED ADJUSTMENTS For optimum picture quality, the EX70 camera lens must be as close as possible to the inside face of the viewing window, without touching. However, the foam ring around the lens of the EX70N should be adjusted to seal against the inside face of the window, minimizing any side light interference, but without obstructing the field of view.

FIGURE 4 – 2 Camera Lens Adjustment For optimum picture quality, the two adjustment screws, located on either side of the camera plate, allow the lens to be moved closer to the viewing window. The lens directional view can also be slightly adjusted during this procedure. Adjust the lens foam ring at this time.

5. CAMERA RE-ASSEMBLY If changes were necessary due to voltage and installation requirements, make sure all power and video wires are correctly connected and tightened into their terminal blocks. Step 5.1 - Connect a ¾” NPT gland or conduit to the open side of the base: Note: The gland and conduit is not supplied.
