RLC-410-5MP water resistent?
-
We are using some RLC-410-5MP (firmware 20071000.pak) outside and they worked for a week flawlessly.
Last night we had strong rain and one of the cameras lost configuration and loaded default values.
Today we checked mainboard and camera module and it looks good - nothing is wet there.
Could it be, that the reset button (see photo) is not water resistent enough? -

The reset button is outside, exposed to rain? Oh, my. and the power supply cable as well?
I think your analysis is entirely correct and those two cables should be weatherproofed. You might consider mounting the camera on a B-10 Junction Box (or similar water tight box). You could mount a small box next to the camera and have the reset and power cables enter the box from the bottom. Would make a neater looking installation as well.
