Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of this PRO-640 indoor/outdoor day & night CCTV camera
from Swann. The PRO-640 is a color CCD camera that can operate in almost all lighting
conditions, from bright daylight (provided it’s not pointed straight toward the sun!) to pitch
darkness.
The PRO-640 is very sensitive to light and therefore can make use of even the smallest amount
of light to provide an image of what it sees. In low light, this comes through as a black and
white image.
In complete or near-total darkness, the camera uses built-in infrared LEDs to illuminate the
area in front of it. This light is invisible to the human eye, although you might notice a faint red
glow coming from the front of the camera - this is normal.
In day or well lit environments, the IR Cut Filter feature of the camera activates to lter out
wavelengths of light the camera does not need in order to provide a clear color image.
IMPORTANT NOTE:
All jurisdictions have specic laws and regulations relating to the use of cameras. Before using
any camera for any purpose, it is the buyer’s responsibility to be aware of all applicable laws
and regulations that prohibit or limit the use of cameras and to comply with the applicable
laws and regulations.
WARNING: Modications not approved by the party responsible for compliance could void
user’s authority to operate the equipment.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS:
• Make sure product is xed correctly and stable if fastened in place
