SECTION 2: INSTALLATION
When the camera is surface mounted, the drop cable can be routed through a hole within the perimeter of the base, or through the
cable channel on the side.
1.
Determine (and acquire, if needed) the best type of fasteners for attaching the camera to the mounting surface. The
mounting screws and wall inserts provided are adequate for most surfaces.
2.
Use the template provided to mark the location for the fasteners for mounting the camera. Also, if the camera drop cable will
pass through the mounting surface, mark the location for the hole.
3.
Drill holes in the mounting surface appropriate for the fasteners. Drill a 3/4" hole for the camera drop cable, if needed.
4.
If needed, insert wall inserts in the screw holes.
5.
Remove the camera dome cover from the camera. Loosen
the three dome captive screws using the Torx L-wrench
provided.
6.
Route the drop cable through the cable channel on
the side of the base, or through the hole drilled in the
mounting surface.
7.
Secure the camera to the mounting surface with three
screws.

8.
Connect the camera drop cable video and power leads to a video and power extension cable as needed. If using 12 Vdc to
power your camera, ensure that +12 Vdc is applied to the center pole of the power drop cable connector.
CAUTION
When using 12 Vdc powering, use extreme caution to observe the polarity of the of the voltage applied to the camera.
The camera power drop cable connector center lead should r12 Vdc when measured to the shield (ground).
NOTE
Drop cable connectors are not waterproof.
9.
Attach the far end of the video extension cable to video monitoring equipment such as a monitor or DVR.
