CAUTION —
The dome camera must be mounted as instructed below or problems with moisture may
arise and will not be covered by the dome camera warranty.
Preparing the Camera for Installation
NOTE:
Be careful not to scratch the dome bubble.
1. Remove the dome cover by loosening the screws that fix the cover to the base. The Torx key included
with the dome camera can be used to loosen the screws.
2. Determine where the cables will enter the camera. The camera has two cable entry holes: one on the
side and one on the bottom of the dome camera.
l
Use the supplied 3/4” NPT closure plug to fill the unused cable entry hole.
l
When installing outdoors, wrap the thread of the plug with the supplied Teflon sealing tape to
create a water tight seal.
3. If you are using the side cable entry hole, attach a conduit connector to the cable entry hole. Install the
conduit and its fitting as instructed by the manufacturer.
NOTE:
Only use vandal resistant conduits. Vandal resistant conduits will protect the cables and
compliment the dome camera’s vandal resistant design.
When installing the dome camera outdoors, ensure the conduit and its fitting are designed for outdoor
use and have a suitable IP rating. Always apply silicone sealant to seal the cable entry hole and prevent
excessive moisture from entering the dome.
Mounting the Base
1. Use the drill template to drill four mounting holes in the ceiling or wall. Note the direction of the camera
heads on the template.
2. If installing outdoors on a vertical surface, the side cable entry hole and conduit connector must face
downwards.
3. Pull the required cables through the cable entry hole in the camera base.
4. Apply silicone sealant around the edge of the camera that is screwed into the mounting surface.
Connecting Cables
Refer to the diagrams in the Overview section for the location of the different connectors.
