Removing the Dome Cover
Remove the dome cover by loosening the screws that fix the cover to the base. Use a T20 Pin-In Torx driver to
loosen the screws.
NOTE:
Be careful not to scratch or touch the dome bubble. The resulting marks or fingerprints may affect the
overall image quality. Keep the protective covers on the bubble until after the installation is complete.
Mounting and Aiming Video Analytics Cameras
When installing an Avigilon video analytics camera, follow the listed mounting and aiming recommendations to
maximize the camera's analytics capabilities:
l
The camera should be installed above 274 cm (9').
l
The camera should tilt downwards no more than 45 degrees.
l
The camera image should be level with the horizon line.
l
The camera should be mounted to a stable surface to minimize the physical movement of the camera
after installation.

Inserting Cables through the Sealing Grommet
Depending on where you are installing the camera, you may need to pull the required cables through the
sealing grommet included with the camera when using a cable entry hole.
1. Remove the sealing grommet from the camera.
2. Pull the tab on the grommet to open a hole for the Ethernet cable.
3. Push an Ethernet cable through the grommet by one of the following methods:
a. If the Ethernet cable is uncrimped, push the cable through the grommet.
b. If the Ethernet cable is already crimped, place the grommet piercing cap on the Ethernet
connector then push the cable through the grommet.
Ensure that the orientation of the cable and grommet matches the one shown in the figure.
4. Push any other required cables through the grommet.
