## Important Notes

{% hint style="danger" %}
Reverse polarity protection of the camera's power input is not effective when the camera is connected to a USB host. To avoid potential damage, do not plug or unplug the camera power connector while USB is connected. Always double-check the polarity of D-Tap connectors before plugging them in.
