NOTE
The iCAM7 series requires at least the following wires:
IMPORTANT: IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE IRISACCESS SYSTEM BE PLACED ON A PRIVATE NETWORK
SEPARATE FROM GENERAL CORPORATE OR PUBLIC ACCESS. SYSTEM PERFORMANCE AND STABILITY MAY BE
AFFECTED DEPENDING ON AMOUNT OF GENERAL NETWORK TRAFFIC.
The iCAM was designed for indoor use only. This device is not weatherproof and must not be
exposed to precipitation or extreme temperatures. If it is required to use this product in an
outdoor or extreme environment, a 3rd Party enclosure may be used to protect the unit from
exposure to dust, moisture, and extreme temperatures. See www.irisid.com - Support &
Service for more information. Installation in a extreme environment without proper protection
may cause permanent damage and void the warranty.
The recommended mounting height for the iCAM7 series is 138cm (54.3inches) from the
floor to the bottom of the unit. This mounting height can be adjusted to accommodate the
height of the average user at the installed location.
High amounts of ambient light must be avoided. Intense light sources such as sunlight or
halogen lamps may reduce the image capture performance of the iCAM which may result in
an increased “failure to acquire” rate.
Power Adapter: The optional power adapter (iCAM7-PWR) can be used as the power source
of the iCAM used for enrollment or other “non-installed” applications. The wires of the
adapter should not be extended. If the power source is beyond the length of the power
adapter then an external power source and wiring should be used. Be sure to observe the
polarity of the adapter wires to the power screw terminals on the iCAM main board.
Power and Wiring: For permanent installation it is recommended to use an external power
supply and wiring.
• Power Supply: 12-24VDC +/- 10% - Minimum 24 Watts (24VDC @ 1AMP).
• Power Wiring: The recommended wire gauge for the ICU power is 18AWG (1.0 mm) wire.
Use of a stable power supply and proper gauge wire is required. The wire length voltage
drop must be accounted for in order to maintain the correct power at the ICU7000-2 unit. For wire
lengths over 30 feet (9 meters) or if thinner gauge wire is being used (more than 18AWG) then it is
required that a 24VDC power supply be used to overcome the wire length voltage drop. A 24VDC
supply with 18AWG (1.0 mm) wire will allow for a distance of up to 200 feet (61 meters).
For systems consisting of only the iCAM and a computer, an Ethernet cross-over cable
may be used.
