When setting up the camera, make sure to place it in an area with sufficient light, as the minimum illumination requirement is 0.05 lux. You can adjust the 30x optical zoom to get the perfect shot, starting from a wide - angle view at 6.5mm all the way to a long - distance head - and - shoulder shot at 202mm. You can also control the pan (up to 340°) and tilt (up to 120°) with selectable transition speeds. Regarding frame rates, you have multiple options up to 4K60 and HD60, so pick the one that suits your production needs. For audio, use the 3.5mm TRS Stereo Audio over the I/O cable. As for maintenance, keep the camera clean. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the lens and body. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or humidity. When not in use, store it in a safe place. And always ensure that the power supply is stable, whether you're using the included 12V power supply or PoE++.
