Install the hardware
Mount the video encoder to a wall/ceiling
The video encoder is supplied with a mounting kit containing a metal bracket, screws and plugs for
mounting the video encoder to a concrete wall/ceiling:
1. Make sure that the screws and plugs are appropriate for the wall/ceiling material.
2. Attach and secure the video encoder to the bracket.
3. Place the video encoder against the wall/ceiling, and mark the location of the two mounting
holes through which the bracket will be attached.
4. Remove the video encoder and drill the two mounting holes.
5. Insert the plugs, position the video encoder and secure it to the wall/ceiling using the screws.
Note:
The bracket can also be mounted on a pole using a cable tie.
Connect the cables
The video encoder uses Power over Ethernet (PoE) and must be connected to a PoE-enabled
network.
1. Connect the encoder to the network using a shielded network cable. This cable is also used to
power the unit.
2. Connect a camera to the BNC port, or connect the covert camera to the tele plug port.
3. Check that the indicator LED:s indicate the correct conditions. See the table on page 13.
