Note  
Caution for other countries  
White flecks  
The output image is mainly used to adjust the view angle, and may not display  
correctly, depending on the video format and image size settings.  
The image may not display properly in the horizontal and/or vertical plane.  
The image may be reduced.  
The SNC-DH140/DH240/DH140T/DH240T operates on 24 V AC or 12 V DC.

for SELV (Safety Extra Low Voltage) and complies with Limited Power Source  
according to IEC 60950-1.  
Although the image sensors are produced with high-precision technologies, fine  
white flecks may be generated on the screen in rare cases, caused by cosmic rays,  
etc.  
This is related to the principle of image sensors and is not a malfunction.  
The white flecks especially tend to be seen in the following cases:  
- when operating at a high environmental temperature  
- when you have raised the gain (sensitivity)
