- Strip approximately 1 inch of the outer insulation from each end of the 22/2 wire.
- Strip approximately 1/4 inch off the insulation for the black and red conductor on each end of the 22/2 wire.
- Insert the red wire into the number 2 I/O port on the camera. If necessary, trim the wire before inserting to ensure no bare wire is exposed.
- Insert the black wire into the number 4 I/O port on the camera. If necessary, trim the wire before inserting to ensure no bare wire is exposed.
