Caution: Be sure to shut down the power supply before

detaching the front cover from the iris camera. If the
power is being supplied when the front cover is
detached, the iris camera will enter the "tamper detec-
tion" mode and the buzzer will beep. In case the power
supply cannot be shut down, detach the front cover from
the camera and cancel the "tamper detection" mode by
moving Setup Switch 3 to ON. The buzzer sound will be
stopped. Then fix the temper detection switch in a
pressed state using a tape or the like.

Before starting the setup, move Setup Switch 3 to ON to can-
cel the "tamper detection" mode. (Set all the other switches
to OFF.)
