Veracity VAD-PS POINTSOURCE Battery POE Injector


  • Also known as: VADPS, FV-VADPS, VCI-VADPS

  • The Veracity VAD-PS POINTSOURCE battery POE injector is a portable POE (Power-over-Ethernet) injector battery pack. It has been designed to assist with installation, setup, and testing of IP cameras, even without an available network or power supply.

    The VAD-PS supports direct laptop connection and boasts a 12 volt power output for connecting auxiliary equipment. The battery pack contains enough capacity to handle multiple installations per day.

    The VAD-PS is an essential tool that helps installers drastically reduce time spent on installation.

    POINTSOURCE features PINPOINT-style integrated network crossover, which allows direct connection of a laptop. It supports all classes of 802.3af POE device, and also includes a 12 volt power output for auxilliary equipment.

    All POE-powered equipment, like wireless access points and IP cameras are compatible. A few examples of where you may want to use this product is: Pre-installation Trials and Site Surveys, Mobile Installations, Temporary Installations, On-Site Configuration, and more.

    When you use the VAD-PS as an installation tool, you eliminate the need for trailing cables or return visits to site in order to set up IP cameras when power or POE is available.

    Compatible with IEEE 802.3af POE standard, automatically enabling control power delivery to IP cameras on connection. And simply connecting a second patch cable to a laptop PC or other network device allows a direct network connection to the camera.

    Includes battery and PoE status LEDs, and a separate charging adapter.

    Designed to last a full day of network camera installation, and can be safely left to recharge overnight.

    Important safety notes: Only the supplied charger should be connected to POINTSOURCE. Do not charge POINTSOURCE in a fully sealed enclosure. Do not attempt to service the unit or replace the battery. Other brands of lead-acid battery are not compatible with POINTSOURCE. Take care when connecting accessories to the 12 volt terminals. POINTSOURCE can deliver high currents before tripping its internal fuse.

    For optimal battery performance and longevity, POINTSOURCE should be fully charged: before first use, after long periods of storage, before being stored for long periods, every six months during storage.

    Always switch off POINTSOURCE when it is not in use, even if the unit is fully discharged. Disconnection from the charger within 16 hours is recommended.

    POINTSOURCE should be charged before first use and after long periods of storage. If stored, it should be fully charged before storage, and recharged every 6 months to maintain battery performance. To charge the POINTSOURCE unit, connect the supplied charger to the socket on the side of the unit, with the unit switched off. The unit should sit on a horizontal surface in a ventilated area (such as a shelf or bench in an office or workshop) during charging. The LED on the charger will light red during charging, and green when charging is complete or if no charge is required. Charge time is typically 4 - 8 hours. The charger can be left connected once charging has completed, however disconnection within 12 - 16 hours is recommended for best performance.

    POINTSOURCE is designed for indoor use only. For outdoor use, suitable weather protection must be employed. If the product is dropped or sustains physical damage, discontinue use immediately and dispose of the product safely.

    The three green LEDs provide an indication of remaining battery life, though the level may dip under heavy load. If only one LED lights, recharging is recommended. If none of the battery LEDs light then the battery is fully discharged and the unit will not operate, to prevent battery damage. In this case leave POINTSOURCE switched off until it has been charged. The red LED lights when power is being delivered to a compatible device connected to the DATA port. It will flash if an incompatible (non-802.3af) device has been connected, or if the device has drawn more power than it is permitted to.

    The 12 volt output can be used for accessories such as monitors or meters, and may be used at the same time or independently of the POE supply. Before connecting any equipment, switch off POINTSOURCE, check the wiring polarity, and ensure that the equipment can accept power in the range 10 to 14 volts. The current drawn should not exceed 1.5 amps. The POE and auxiliary outputs are both protected by a single 3 amp selfresetting fuse, however note that the auxiliary output can deliver significant currents for short periods before the fuse trips.

    POINTSOURCE has an anticipated battery life of 3-5 years, or approximately 200 - 1000 charging cycles, depending on discharge depth and operating temperature.

    It uses a maintenance-free Sealed Lead Acid battery that is not replaceable by the user, however a battery replacement service may be available contact Veracity for details. Only Veracity specification batteries may be used in POINTSOURCE; other similar sized units (eg, Yuasa) are not compatible.

    Where the product has been purchased within the European Union, it should be disposed of at a lead-acid battery collection facility or returned at the customers expense to Veracity UK Ltd. A professional service engineer may remove the battery for disposal by unscrewing the case and detaching the battery terminals.
